<p>Hey everyone</p>

<p>Can you evaluate my chances for admission to USC next year…</p>

<p>WGPA- 4.0
UGPA-3.81</p>

<p>SAT 1300
sat 1950
no sat IIs</p>

<p>I go to a private school in Arizona that is a huge HUGE feeder school to USC </p>

<p>4 varsity letters
Tons of E.C.s</p>

<p>im assuming my sats are whats going to kill me right?</p>

<p>My Gpa shows an upward trend
frosh-3.7
Soph-4.1
Junior- 4.25</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Without knowing your EC’s I’d say a reach/slight reach. If you’d elaborate on them it’d give us a much better idea. Good luck.</p>

<p>My inclination is that it is a reach due to the SAT score, but ace everything else and you have a shot.</p>

<p>I think that people are too harsh on this forum, according to the admission stats for the class that entered in fall 2006 the middle 50% of Admitted students scored between 1960 and 2220 for SAT’s so I dont really think your SATs are TOO much of a weakness…</p>

<p>I guess I am trying to defend myself a little bit as well with this post (I scored 1990), but im taking it again in January anyways</p>

<p>ya the stats that PR have and the stats that CC’rs post are usually quitre different</p>

<p>ya pmcharkins…my score is basically the same as yours ( 10 points lower)… but im taking it again in jan too</p>

<p>good luck to us</p>

<p>ya, good luck man, im shootin’ for right around 2100, high goal, but i only need about 40 points in each section</p>

<p>and for Goblue</p>

<p>no offense intended, but i dont think the school you come from really affects admission
id say you have a decent shot though, itll probablly come down to essays and what not</p>

<p>ya im really just trying to get 1400… im fine with writing… but that CR kills me… well my vocab kills me</p>

<p>Right, but most of the people who are below the 25th percentile SAT score have some sort of a hook, or they have a a sky-high GPA with stellar essays and killer E.C’s. In addition to that, admission is becoming more competitive every year; that middle 50% will rise for class of 2011.</p>

<p>i think you have a good chance. good luck</p>
