Currently at University of Connecticut. Originally, I only came here because with tuition paid and housing almost all paid for, I pay about 2k out of pocket per semester. I do like it here, but I find that the pre-med program (or lack thereof) is quite disconcerting. I know I can get a lot of pre-med advisement right here at SDN, but honestly if I had never found sdn I would be very lost (something I've come to resent about my current school). I'm done with my first year with a 3.9 (not including classes I took in HS, otherwise it's about a 3.5-3.6), with research + a pub on the way. Taking summer classes now, and I've all but secured an A in the class I'm taking now. I'm confident that I will continue to do well. Is it wrong for me to want to switch to somewhere like Yale or JHU? Or even UCLA? I know you should stay where you can do well and are happy.... but one can dream, right? In any case, should I send out a couple of apps to other schools come time for transfer apps?
P.S. money was tight when I applied to schools, but now my family's financial situation has turned up.
