<p>I have ~4.0 GPA for college
3.6 for highschool
2250 SAT (740 m 740 w 770cr)
770 chem
760 math 2
720 bio
AND
a legitimate reason for transferring; there's no neurobiology major here, or anything closely related.</p>
<p>Also, I will be published IN THE BYLINE in science magazine in an article this coming year.</p>
<p>Chances?</p>
<p>4.0 GPA at grade deflating Cornell certainly can't hurt. I'd say you have a shot. Go for it!</p>
<p>Honestly and seriously I think you will be accepted, your reason is valid, and your transferring from Cornell, I'm a transfer student myself, and I've seen about 4 guys transferring from Cornell, I think everyone who applied from Cornell for transfer got in, and you have 4.0 from Cornell, THAT' MORE THATN ENOUGH. Penn accepts transfers from UChicago, NYU and Cornell all the time. So don't worry about being accepted and don't spend a lot of time on the transfer process because you are more qualified than all the transfer students who got accepted.</p>
<p>Dulce?!!!!!</p>
<p>how can you have ~ a 4.0; it's a kinda thing where you either do or don't</p>
<p>@quaker -- lmao i was thinkin that too.</p>
<p>I have a ~4.0 because it's currently hovering in between a 3.7 and 4.0, depending on whether I get a B+ in Philosophy or an A-.</p>
<p>even if you got an A-, how would you have a 4.0?</p>
<p>Because it's possible to get an A+, which at Cornell translates into a 4.3. The scale remains out of 4, though. It's like bonus points, I suppose. Slightly ghetto. Anyway, I have an A+ in one class, so it can balance out the other.</p>
