<p>I am a community college student living in Texas. I got a GED score of 576 and I am considering taking the ACT depending on which colleges I choose to apply for transfer admission. I have 60 non-developmental credit hours and I likely would be transferring as a Sophomore or Junior also given that some courses may not transfer. My lowest grades are the following:</p>
<p>B in English 1
B in English 2
C in Microeconomics
D in College Algebra (May not be transferable due to grade)
B in Developmental writing (Non-transferable)
W in Developmental math 1(Non-transferable) (Technically withdrawn)
B in Developmental math 2(Non-transferable)
With only 1 Withdraw which was in Physics for non-science majors
I have made an A in all other classes including Pre-calculus, Biology 1 and 2, British Literature, and Macroeconomics
It is also noteworthy to note that all my poor grade work was in my first year and I have made a 4.0 in my last 34 credit hours. I had 1 really rough spring semester of my Freshman year and now everything seems messed up for me...</p>
<p>I am looking at the following majors: Government, Psychology, History, Political Science or Philosophy with a minor in whatever seems interesting or that I enjoy.</p>
<p>To be honest I am kind of gearing away from math or science related majors due to my grades and lack of classes in the field areas. I feel like I screwed up with the everlasting D in College Algebra and C in Micro and all is lost. In addition I dropped my first science class and I'd have to take an even harder version of something I'm not that great at. My GPA is a 3.60 with 60 Credit hours.(Includes college algebra grade and obviously excludes W's)</p>
<p>I am considering the following colleges the most and please add some in the comment section of good choices you would recommend for me and would not recommend based on the list I provide below.</p>
<p>University of Texas at Austin
University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign
Cornell University
UCLA
Cal
Texas A&M
The Ohio State University
Michigan State University
Indiana-Bloomington
Johns Hopkins
Arizona State
California Colleges</p>
<p>And quite a few others... I'm capable of writing a great essay that I will take my time on and ensure that I give myself the best chance on every application that I fill out. I have been very involved including being in Phi Theta Kappa (Honors society), Treasurer of Student Government, as well as many other active clubs and volunteer work.</p>
<p>What do you guys think about my transfer chances and etc? </p>
