That’s great that you’re a strong writer - it will really help.

Here’s a conversion chart for the tests, and lots of additional info: Higher Education Professionals | College Board; You’ve got a strong ACT score already, and if you (a) like the test format and (b) think you can improve, I would be tempted to just work hard on the ACT and forego the SAT reasoning test. Add 2-3 strong SAT II scores, especially Math II if you want to compensate for some of your weaker grades. In theory, USC should be just as impressed with a great ACT score as with a great SAT score. (I hope that’s true, because that’s what my D is planning to use next year!)
