I'm having a hard time figuring out what I should do. So I am hoping some of you might have a better idea. Here are my stats
--2 Year School--(TVCC, which is a top 10 CC though I'm sure that won't matter much)
4.0 GPA
82 Credits
So far I've taken Anatomy, Physiology, Chem 1 & 2, Bio 1 & 2, along with all my electives and mandatory classes for my AA degree.
My dilemma is that my house isn't sold yet, and my 4 year school is 1.5hrs away. I *can* drive but it will put a large financial burden along with limited family time as I'd get back at about 8pm each night. My two year school has Microbiology, Calculus 1&2, Organic 1&2, and University Physics 1&2 so I was thinking of taking two more semesters here and then transfer for my upper division credits.
So I guess my question is that with all my pre-reqs done, and a hopeful 4.0 cgpa, I should have a fairly high DAT(I'm a great test taker and so far understand the material very well) do I have a decent chance at getting accepted next year(2012). And if I don't get accepted in 2012, when my upper divisions are done, will those CC credits hurt me that bad considering I have a 4.0gpa? Or should I just suck it up and start at my 4 year university now?
Also if I do go to the 4 year school, I cannot take organic chem 1&2 or Physics 1&2 yet as I haven't taken calculus. So for next summer admissions I won't have 4 pre-reqs done meaning I'd be another year out for sure, whereas If I got them done here I have a chance at getting in. And then if I don't I just retake them and am still out one year which would be the same.
Thanks for the opinions in advance 🙂
