I'm trying to transfer but I'm having trouble coming up with things to write about in essays--college admissions officers aren't looking for guys who are trying to break in to IB.

I wrote about how my first school was too easy and I wanted to study under more prominent professors at the transfer school. If you have good grades to back that up it’s really useful. I also stated how I wanted to take business classes that weren’t available at the old school even though I was a humanities major.
