<p>Questions

  1. I am so worrying about the SAT 1 score. Even though I heard that the SAT 1 is not significantly considered into admission process compared to GPA and etc, since I know the admission process is holistic one, I am just so confusing. I can’t retake the SAT 1. </p>

<p>2) Chance me please?</p>

<p>*I know the transfer admission for colleges in the list is extremely competitive.</p>

<p>I’m sure you have read: [Harvard</a> College Admissions § Applying: Transfer Program](<a href=“http://www.admissions.college.harvard.edu/apply/transfer/evaluation.html]Harvard”>http://www.admissions.college.harvard.edu/apply/transfer/evaluation.html)</p>

<p>“In each of the past two years, Harvard has been able to enroll twelve transfer students from applicant pools of over six hundred and nearly fifteen hundred. The number of well-qualified candidates far exceeds the number of students admitted. It is therefore recommended that students who wish to transfer from their current colleges explore a variety of options.”</p>
