<p>Wow, that’s competitive. But obviously not as competitive as the Ivies! I applied this year as a transfer to Stanford, Brown, Harvard, Cornell, UPenn, and Dartmouth. They only accepted 2% of transfers this year, so I wasn’t that surprised. So if a school accepts only a third of applicants, that’s a pretty good chance in my opinion.</p>
<p>Do you think I should re-take my ACT in September? I scored a 25. I want to score at least a 27, but I can’t decide if that’ll help my transfer applicants.</p>
<p>Also, what’s the crime like in DC? I was looking at a school there earlier, but someone told me to avoid DC due to the high crime rates!</p>
