Hey guys, I just recently transferred from a non-target to Georgetown. GPA took a hit, but I'm still going strong. Have submitted maybe 5-6 apps for SA so far, with 10 more to go haha.
Take a look and give me some pointers?

Thanks, and good luck to all.
1) You need to include your prior non-target university, major, GPA. It's deceptive to only put down Georgetown.
2) I'm a bit iffy about putting poker as an interest...not sure it gives the right impression- perhaps others on WSO can comment.
3) Good work experience. Decent leadership; make sure you are more involved with Gtown's finance activities so you can start listing more experiences on that.
Good luck!!

I've tried including both schools, and despite the CLEARLY DELINEATED attendance dates for separate schools, HR always asks me: "so why did you choose to get a second bachelor's degree?". It really confounds me. As of right now, I've left it off of my resume. However, the fact that I transferred is a selling point that I mention in many interviews. Not trying to hide anything.
Also, I don't think poker really gives off a bad vibe. Haven't really ever heard of anyone encountering a problem with poker. Have you?
Put 'em both down, they will find out on the background check anyway.
Leave the poker interest off, then play poker with them when you are hired.
Leave the Univ of Maryland off.
Good move transferring to Georgetown -- heavily recruited by BB's and MM's.
Definitely keep the poker on there -- great for trading
