IMO this is the key issue you face, not better opportunities if you could transfer. The same person who got those grades is going to be the one at PSU.
Assuming you want top grades in case you apply to transfer, have you thought about what you’ll do differently? Have you looked into the known ways to improve schoolwork such as self-testing and distributed practice? And have you worked thru how to ensure the changes will stick? Giving up new-years resolutions is practically a truism, probably the same is true of HS kids vowing to turn over a new leaf in college.
