<p>@wiz. No I wasn’t.</p>

<p>I know this isn’t relevant to your question, because honestly I am no good judge, but what are your reasons for transferring? I am just wondering because those are both schools I want to apply to.</p>

<p>Don’t plan on it with that ACT.</p>

<p>gahhh, I’m trying to think of where you went… but I digress. if you want to take the ACT again you definitely could–and it’d probably help–but a really good year/semester at UM could be just as good as a two-point bump.</p>

<p>@Aendos thanks for the encouragement. I already know that my act is low and that’s why I plan to retake it. </p>

<p>@wiz haha…UM isn’t bad…I just like to be at Chicago…</p>

<p>@helloel My reasons are just as good as yours. Good school, great people, great curriculum, and it has everything I want in a college institution.</p>

<p>oh, no no no! i wasn’t saying stay at UM… i was saying that i wouldn’t recommend retaking, i’d just work super-duper hard this semester!</p>

<p>@wiz, haha yeah that’s what I might do. But I’m just wondering what my chances are with those stats. Also, why not do a retake?</p>
