My gpa is decent 3.7, and my ACT is decent as well but they are lower than the average for USC. Its because of my passion for videogames that I’ve never really tried hard in school. I keep researching them and playing them and at this point I’ve decided I wanted to go in the gaming business. Would it be wise to write a personal statement to describe my passion of videogames? or should I do the typical “how I survived through a tough time”?

I want to go to USC because it is the top in getting a videogame degree.
Also I have a butt load of Extra curriculars and I’m taking the ACT which will hopefully be on average with USC.
