<p>USC said that last year they only took 19 of 659 appeals, which doesn’t sound too good for us planning to appeal.</p>
<p>So I wanted to know some of the stats of people who plan on appealing to kind of get a feeling of who got rejected and maybe we can find the weaknesses in our applications together?</p>
<p>Here are my stats:</p>
<p>Objective:</p>
<pre><code>* SAT I (breakdown): 2090 (690 cr/790w/650m) 1880 (740/590/550) Highest combined: 2160
