I too like yolocholo am looking to transfer even though I have a horrible HS gpa. Unlikely however, I hope that the steep increase in grades, and EC’s I have gotten in community college will help. It’s a long shot, but oh well, like someone mentioned earlier, you don’t know until you apply.

HS GPA: 3.1 W / 2.9 UW
HS EC: Coaching youth basketball, Helping around my church

Community College: Sem 1: 3.727, Sem 2: 3.85 (I haven’t many core classes yet like physics, bio, chem, higher math)
Community College EC: Hospital Volunteering, AGS (Honor society), Various fundraising events

Also I would be a Bio or Chem major as the ultimate goal is to strive for a career in Medicine, specifically pediatrics.

I might also mention I might be able to find a research position at the nearby Cal Tech.

Chances are slim to none, I know, but what do I have that’s working for me, and what is working against me?
