<p>I always love posts like that - people automatically assume they’ll get a 4.0 because they’ll try hard. You have never taken one class, and you already have in stone your college gpa. More importantly, if you DO have a good gpa and solid college ECs, I really see no reason to not try to transfer into all of those big reaches. Although if I were you, I’d probably not go for MIT and Wharton; the rest you might not get in either because the odds are not in your favor. But since you’re already a lock for USC and if you’re willing to do the work then go for it!</p>
