<p>I’ve been considering trying to transfer from Univeristy of California, Berkeley to Wharton School of Business. I’m attending a CC for my senior year of High School and am pretty sure I will have a 4.0 GPA by the end of the year. At Berkeley, I hope to keep my GPA at 3.6 or above. I’m a little confused about some of the required transfer courses. So please correct me if I’m wrong. From what I gather, these are the required courses:</p>
<p>Calculus, Integral (2 semesters)
Microeconomics (1 semester)
Macroeconomics (1 semester)
Foreign language (4 semesters)
Financial Accounting (1 semester)
Managerial Accounting (1 semester)
Statistics (2 semesters)</p>

<p>The reason I questioned this was because, although I can complete all these requirements by next year, I am a very rare exception. There are a total of 12 semester classes a normal student would have to take in a year. The foreign language, specifically doesn’t make too much sense (4 semesters in 1 year?) Is this right? I feel gravely mistaken and confused =/</p>
<p>Also, what are some things I could do to enhance my chances of being accepted? I know it’s very difficult to get in and was wondering if anyone knew the details of any past cases, profiles, stats, etc.</p>
<p>For those wondering why I’m considering transfering: I’m very interested in fanancial services and ibanking on wall street. I know Berkeley is a great school, but here on the west coast, the financial services sector is pretty slim and high tech consulting is usually the area of business most Haas grads end up in.</p>
