<p>First, just a general thank you to all of you who have commented here. Your comments/suggestions are truly helpful :)</p>
<p>And, here’s my answer to @ocnative and @XFER14 -
I earned those grades simply because it is extremely hard for me to concentrate when there’s little to none homework and mostly self-control sort of learning/studying.
I will say there’s really no specific one of the top 20 schools that I am leaning toward (perhaps Johns Hopkins?).</p>
<p>And here’s a new question:</p>
<p>What will be my chance to get into Univ of Washington (which has a similar ranking to my current school)?</p>
<p>And what will be my chance to get into UC Davis (Animal Biology major, to be specific) from a lower-ranking (but not too low) UC School? Because I’ve heard that UCs prioritize community college students so chances for UC-UC transfer is low…</p>
