<p>it would be nice if someone helped me out</p>

<p>Your ECs are great. Your gpa is also good. Are you going to take ACT again? Have you taken the SAT?</p>

4

<p>no and no. should I?</p>

5

<p>If you have time, I suggest you study for SAT and take it. Same for ACT, but only take it again if you are able to study before. This depends on whether you have time to study as well as if you will have results back in time for applications. Good luck!</p>

<p>I think you will get in. I think USC would love to have you.</p>

<p>Low chances at every single one of these schools.
Certainly possible, but not likely… Hopefully your essays are good and deep…</p>
