<p>I am currently a male junior in high school in Colorado. I know that USC is a private school and it does not matter what state you are applying from, however it still seems that they do give somewhat of an edge to california students.</p>

<p>USC has been my number 1 choice for many years now. I was just wondering if i have a good chance of getting into USC when i apply next year. Here are my stats...</p>

<p>GPA (after junior year)
weighted- 3.97
unweighted- 3.7</p>

<p>~I am in the top 13% of my high school</p>

<p>extracurriculars
~Lettered in Debate and Debate 3 years (will a 4th time)
~I have received an academic letter 2 years in a row
~I have ran Cross Country for every year in high school and have lettered in it.
~I am a member of NHS for my 2nd year
~I am involved in Creek Connects (helping 8th grades transition from middle school to high school)
~I am a student shadow
~I am in Amnesty International for my 1st year
~I am Hoping to be a peer ambassador next year
~I volunteer at my church and at Children's Hospital this year**
~i have volunteered for the special olympics (helping mentally disabled childern swim)**
**I am putting in about 6 hours of volunteering a week
~I am also going to do Summer program at USC where you go and take classes and live in the dorms for a month.</p>

<p>I have just meet the USC recruiter and have been keeping in touch with him, i will also have an interview during spring break at USC</p>

<p>This year i am taking 3 APs (AP language, AP US Government, and AP Human Geography) Next year i will take at least 4 APs.</p>

<p>I have not taken the ACT or SAT but i am hoping i get a 30 or 32 on my ACT and a 2050-2250 on my SAT</p>

<p>I know i will have a very good essay and very good letters of recommendation</p>

<p>THe Last couple of years USC has become very competitive, I REALLY want to go to USC... What are my chances?!?!?!? Please be brutally honest</p>

<p>Did you take the PSAT? If you score very well on the SATs and you took the PSAT, you have the opportunity to try for a Presidential Scholarship. However, SC must be your first choice school. This cuts your tuition costs in half. This scholarship is awarded after acceptance, an interview and if you become a NMScholar.</p>

<p>What's the point of making a chances thread, when you're still a junior who has not taken any of the standardized tests? You can speculate on your scores all you want, but there's no way you can predict it. Seeing as how you probably haven't taken any practice tests and are just hoping.</p>

<p>^Especially since USC is a school that emphasizes standardized tests in admissions.</p>
