Based on the [SUSF(6) O(3)]sym SUc(3) quark model, we study transverse transition form factors fromthe nucleon to nucleonic excitation states △(1232), N* (1535), and N* (1680). The transition form factors GT(Q2) arecalculated with a realistic and relativistic electromagnetic interaction. Therefore, a fit to experimental data examinesto what extent the constituent quark model is workable. The comparison between theoretical results and experimentaldata shows that the constituent quark model cannot provide a successful description of the transitions.
