Actually the admission transfer advisors have told me Engineering is very competitive but it all depends on spots and how many transfers are applying. The Computer Engineering advisor has said computer engineering branches off to 3 different engineering, so if you don’t get into one, put the second as an alternative and because of this, it is an easier engineering program to get into verses petroleum, nuclear or biomedical. Also your friend that got declined with a 4.0 (what was the his/her major and what courses did he/she not complete), is similar to my friend getting declined with a 3.88, the reason being is because he hadn’t even started calculus 1 yet, even tho he only had 2 B’s, rest A’s with about 48 hrs (ballpark).I know still my chances are still slim, but what are some recommendations to improve my chances? I’ve also heard A&M cares dearly about CBK GPA’s and MAJOR courses such as Calc 1/2/3, Chem 1/2 and Physics 1/2 with English 1301 in my case (engineering).
