<p>Hi. Im going to be a sophomore at SUNY Geneseo in the fall. Currently, Im a Biochem major and a math minor. However, I've now decided Id like to get into a career in investment banking and it is very hard to do so from a non-ivy league school. So aside from my chances of getting into Cornell, what are the chances of me switching from Biochem to a dual major in Math and Econ as a transfer student?</p>

<p>My high school GPA was a 90.5, 1440 SATs, AP Bio, Calc, US Hist, and English</p>

<p>First semester at Genny:
Gen Chem I: A
Gen Bio I: B+
Calc I: B+
Core elective: B
GPA: 3.5, made Dean's List</p>

<p>Second semester at Genny:
Gen Chem II: B+
Gen Bio II: B- (no curve class average was a C)
Calc II: B+ (no curve class average was a C)
Theatre: B-
GPA: 3.0</p>

<p>took Calc III over the summer, got a B</p>

<p>I know I don't have a 3.8, but will the classes I took give me a shot? Thnx if you made it this far!</p>

<p>You can always apply and see what happens.</p>

<p>I’ll caution that investment banking isn’t going to be nearly as lucrative in the coming years ahead.</p>

<p>Hey </p>

<p>Does anyone know if when you apply for transfer there is still the option of applying to a primary and secondary school like when you apply as a freshman to Cornell? Thanks! :)</p>
