I have a kind of interesting situation. Right now I am a freshman in my second semester, last semester I was a Umass Boston and right now I am at Umass Dartmouth. I did awful in high school so I am trying to get a good GPA and hopefully transfer somewhere else. I have a few schools in mind (mainly just BU at the moment) but I would like some input on what schools I would have a chance at. Also I plan on transferring after sophomore year…

white, female, Boston area

High School:
GPA: 2.5 (?)
SAT: reading: 540; math: 560; writing: 490 (don’t laugh)
SAT 2: Bio M: 580
ECs: DDR club (yes, the game), Computer Club, Field Hockey(coaches award), various jobs (YMCA, Circuit City, etc)

College:
undecided major
UMB: GPA: 3.14
took english 1, chem 1 & lab, engineering 1, & intro astro
no ECs, commuter schools aren’t fun

UMD:
just started this semester, aiming for at least 3.7 GPA
ECs: internship with MASSPIRG
next year I will be involved in Horseback riding and maybe starting a club

So with that said, where do I go? Also I would like to be on either the east coast or west coast. thanks
