<p>Hi, new to this site... hopefully I'm posting in the right section. Just wanted to know my chances of getting into some of my dream schools; stressing a bit (junior year is ending in a couple days)</p>

<p>About myself:</p>

<p>Asian - Indian (male)
California Resident
Love business, computers, and film.</p>

<p>Stats:
UNWEIGHTED GPA's</p>

<p>9th grade: 3.5 / 3.6 (no weighted classes)
10th grade: 3.6 / 3.8 (2 weighted classes - 2 B's first semester, 1 B second semester rest are A's)
11th grade: 3.3 / 3.5 (3 weighted classes - 3 A's 2 B's & 1 C first semester, 3 A's 3 B's second semester) - lots of family issues this year and a death in the family.</p>

<p>12th grade plans: 4 weighted classes, shooting for all A's.</p>

<p>Extra Curriculars: 1 year JV basketball, 3 years Varsity Golf, own my own business in which a portion of funds are donated to the school's technology dept., officer in DECA (went to international competition), president of a club, officer in engineering club, officer in film club, I have a youtube channel (want to pursue)</p>

<p>Over 500 service learning hours at a library, senior center, and carnivals and little things like that.</p>

<p>SAT I: 2130 (will retake in senior year again)
SAT II's: Haven't taken but shooting for high 700's and 800 on math 2.
ACT: Taking a course over summer to take in September</p>

<p>My #1 school is USC or UCLA</p>

<p>Some realistic goals in order are: UC San Diego, UC Irvine, NYU, UC Davis, UC Santa Barbara, Urbana Champagne, Georgia Tech or of course any other decent universities.</p>

<p>Possible majors: Business Admin, Finance, Computer Science, Film</p>

<p>Please be honest and brutal. Thanks a ton!</p>

<p>Many of us detest these “chance” threads because you’re asking an answer (or opinion) to a question for which there is no answer. 80%+ of the qualified students are going to be declined by USC. So a laundry list of accomplishments isn’t going to really tell if USC will want you are not. The BEST answer to your question will be found here:</p>

<p>OP, certainly posters here do not “detest” your thread!!! At least I don’t! The thought is that the information in the “Final Chances” thread is SO useful that it should be your first stop in determining your own chances. Sorry the above poster was so hard on you :)</p>

<p>Actually, I was being honest and brutal which the sbkid14 asked. And I respect him for it.</p>

<p>What are your chances? The school turns down a lot of highly qualified students so the answer is here (posted by another parent who is brilliant) It’s probably the best answer you can get given the low odds of anyone getting into USC.</p>
