<p>I need some advice guys! I am a sophomore pre-med student at Miami University (Ohio). I have been thinking of transferring since the end of freshman year because of my grades that I worry are not good enough for med school (at a 3.0 now). Part of this is because I'm just not interested in my science classes. I honestly don't think medical school is my passion anymore. I have always loved meteorology (totally different) and feel this is what I'm really wanting to pursue. The only problem is the fact that Miami does not offer a major in atmospheric sciences so I would HAVE to transfer. I'm so torn, though, because I don't want to leave all my great friends (the best I've ever had and we're really close) and a school that I love behind. I've had such a great college experience here and the opportunities I've had are great! And for next year I already signed a lease to live with my best friends in an apartment. I am worried about starting over if I transfer. If I stayed here I would keep pursuing pre-med, but if I don't get in I don't know what I'll do otherwise. I know that if I don't get in something will work out...but the uncertainty freaks me out. Any advice?</p>
<p>You should definitely transfer (“Follow your dreams” or whatever), but if you are emotionally incapable of leaving your friends, you could just limit yourself to schools located within a reasonable distance of Miami University.</p>
