<p>I wonder if high school GPA could benefit someone with more than 30 units in college.
My high school GPA was a 3.93.</p>

<p>Any input?</p>

4142

<p>@happydk-it could, you never know. it could show that youre consistent vs. someone whos not. college gpa and prereqs as well as the personal statement are the most important I think.</p>

4143

<p>@SouthOCtrojan
Yeah after I wrote I noticed people’s status changes at all times of the day. But I think the Friday thing is true.</p>

<p>@happydk
It won’t hurt. Are you entering as a Sophomore or Junior?</p>

4144

<p>@dbroncos23-Yea I just noticed that you look correcta bout that… Thats really handy to know once you get your ‘committee is reviewing’ status change! good catch.</p>

4145

<p>@ dbroncos23 and SouthOCtrojan</p>

<p>Appreciate the feedback. I should be entering as a junior.</p>

4146

<p>@SouthOCtrojan
thanks man. always looking for those patterns and trends. haha</p>

<p>@happydk
Generally if you’re entering as a Junior, your high school record won’t have as much weight if you were entering as a Sophomore. Since you GPA is pretty high, then it’s only going to help you out.</p>

4147

<p>my status still says “thank you for submitting your part 2 application” … ***?? i am also CLAS/sociology</p>

4148

<p>@everyone</p>

<p>Quick question. I was reading the transferring guide and USC requires 4 units for a class. I’m confused on what a unit is? I was looking at my community college and it says 3 S.H. I’m guessing S.H. is semester hours. Do those 3 hours translate to 3 credits?</p>

4149

<p>And I thought the pool of sociology applicants was small… they’re all coming out of the woodwork now!</p>

<p>I bet all the sociology majors put FBI agent as their dream job. I know foodmunkee and I are guilty of this!</p>

4150

<p>@dbroncos- 4 units for a class in high school or college? I’m guessing high school since most college classes are 3 units. college is typically 1 unit per hour a week in the classroom. so typically classes can be 1.5 hrs,2x a week…thus, 3 units.</p>

<p>When I say 3 units, I mean SEMESTER UNITS, lol.</p>

4151

<p>@SouthOCtrojan</p>

<p>Well I was looking at the Marshall requirements. I posted a picture below. See how it’s telling me 4 units? Will those 3 semester hours cover those 4 units?</p>

<p>dont worry about it. Theyre looking for the courses, not the unit count specifically. they are typically the same across the board. </p>

<p>on Marshall’s undergrad admissions website for transfers it just states the courses, not the transfers. Be more worried about your prereqs being done than the unit count.</p>

4153

<p>@southoctrojan
alright. thanks.</p>

4154

<p>blah i cant wait any longer… I’m looking at the USC store planning the shirts I’m going to get if I get in. Coming from So Cal… I think they should make one that says “I ACTUALLY go to USC”… you’ll get what I mean once football season rolls around.</p>

4155

<p>@cd720- LOL, so true. but you also get the bandwaggon USC haters that come out of the woodwork as soon as they lose or have a close call. its pathetic.</p>

4156

<p>@brianlee hahaha so true dude lol
