Transfer Students

<p>I was wondering if some Penn engineers could give me feedback on what typical freshmen cover in their first two semesters of coursework. I’d really like to transfer but I think its more important for me to know how I stand in comparison as a frame of reference. </p>

<p>Bioengineering/Premed freshman currently at University of Pittsburgh
GPA is shaping out to be 3.9-4.0 (college)
HS GPA : 101.52, SAT 2250 (710/790/750)
Course load is currently calc III, freshman engineering analysis class (UNIX/matlab/C++ programming), chem 1, engineering physics 1, with diff eq, social psych, chem 2, physics 2, and engineering design scheduled for next semester.</p>

<p>Traditional advice/critique/commentary also welcome!</p>

<p>Transfer to Penn is always going to be difficult. It Is a lottery school. Good luck. </p>

<p>I believe intro to BE I and II were freshman year, still looks that way:

<p>IMHO, contact the department about it, try to talk to the undergrad advisor. I would think you might want to apply to a few schools when transferring, just to be on the safe side, if you are really sure you want to leave.</p>
