I know that I'm behind the curve, as I'll be a transfer student, and depending on how many courses I decide to take over the summer, I'm on the fence between freshman and sophomore year. I have a predicted 3.42 GPA.

Obviously this is something that will likely set me apart from most of the others going through recruitment, and I'd like advice on how to use this to set myself apart in a positive light, rather than a negative one.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated, particularly from SEC greeks that know what it's like to go through competitive recruitment. Thank you!

I'm not familiar with South Carolina or SEC Recruitment (aside from what I read here on GC) but I wanted to bring your thread TTT so that someone who is can find it and give you the answers you need. I saw the responses you got in your Introduction thread and am hoping you'll get better answers here.

That said, thank you for your service to our country and I wish you the best of luck in your recruitment.
