Target School Dilemma

Hi all so here is my dilemma.

I go to a university where the business school is a target school by MBB and the college is only a target by 1 or 2 of MBB. I can transfer to the business school but, since the bschool grades on a curve and everyone in there are very smart, I think my GPA will be lower than if I'm in the college of arts and sciences. Knowing MBB are obsessed about GPA, transferring to B-school will hurt my GPA but gets me into a target school. If I don't transfer, I stay in CAS (target by only 1 or 2)and can expect a high GPA. Assuming I've had internships in BB PWM, boutique ibanking, and boutique private equity, what should I do?

 

Wow, dude. That's pretty impressive. You're pretty much touching upon every base of Finance. PWM, Banking, P/E, and now Consulting. Is your school USC by any chance? My friends who are in the business school there say they curve to a 3.0, which is a bitch in my opinion.

 

Can anyone answer my original question please? Advice will be greatly appreciated. And I wouldn't want this thread to turn into a place to bash other ppl.
