I am 17 and I do not feel ready to go to one of my choices of college and I feel I need to do some more preparing. I have 2 D's on my transcript, my grades aren't perfect, they aren't bad but the colleges I want to go to are very competitive. But I have great SAT scores. Anyway, my parents are always questioning why I won't go straight to UCLA, NYU or USC but those are competitive schools. I've applied but I highly doubt I will get in. My parents don't even know my grades and haven't been paying attention to my progress in school ever since I got in high school. I feel that transferring from Santa Monica is right for me but they keep trying to convince me to do otherwise, none of them attended college. Only my brother and he's a little more supportive. But everytime I ask them why are they so against me doing that and they never have an answer. My teacher also told me it's good to transfer because a lot of freshman in college aren't even ready for it. I just feel it's right for me.
