<p>Hi! I’m also applying for Fall 2014 as an international, and I’ve recently taken the CIE A-Levels.
A-Levels are one of the most rigorous courses out there, so I think that having those is a great advantage, and if you do well in them, you’ll be fine. The only problem is, however, that if you take them in November, you’ll have to send USC your predicted grades, and not your actual ones. (Though they will ask for those too, eventually.) Did you perhaps take AS Levels, that you can send?
I think your subject tests are fine, you may want to think about retaking the SAT. Critical Reading scores are a little low.
Also, do you want to be considered for merit scholarship? You do know that for internationals, there is no financial aid, right? If you do, then definitely retake the SAT.
That’s all I can help for now, sorry I don’t know much about music and the sciences.</p>
