T4 student trying to transfer

Post by mmribail » Tue Jun 15, 2010 12:02 am

I want to go to either Texas Tech, U of H, or UT. Do I have a shot at either school? My gpa is 3.19 which would put me in the top 11 to 12 percent of the class based on last years rankings (below) (We are on a C curve).

You should have a strong chance of being admitted to Houston, in at Texas Tech, and Texas is worth a try especially if you are a resident.

I would say IN at U of H and Texas Tech, and if you can qualify as a Texas resident, then UT is definitely worth the app.

(Had no idea any law school had C curves. Do any students get A's??)

^ On a normal curve, wouldn't that mean 9% get F's?

Anyway, since I saw you only have 4 posts, I wanted to include the obligatory "see Arrow's transfer thread" post (link below), in case you've yet to read it.
