Hey guys. So I just wanted some opinions on what you think about junior college transfer students. You always hear that kids that go to a junior college are "lesser" than those who go straight to a university as if they are better. I really got offended when I overheard a girl in my class talking down about transfer students as if everything is so easy in JC and that they can't hang at a major university. Personally, I took the JC route as you might have guessed and got out of there with a 4.0 and took many of my prereqs there. Now I am going into my senior year at UCLA as a molecular, cell, and developmental biology major with a 3.89 gpa and will hopefully get that above 3.9 by the time I graduate. To me I feel that if you went to a JC and did well but also did very well at a major university it shows you can compete with the best of them regardless of transferring or not. How do adcoms view students like me?
