<p>Hi. Here's my GPAs:
Freshman year: 3.33
Sophomore: 3.55
Junior year: 3.75
I've lived in three different countries (so i'm an international student) but am currently residing in illinois and attending one of the best private schools in the country

fall and spring play freshman year
fall play sophomore year
President of 2 clubs. both community service, one which I founded

Highest level Choir 3 years
Peer Tutor 3 years of high school
member of AFS club
member of GSA
Varsity Volleyball 1 year
Volunteer at local hospital</p>

<p>I also am really good with interviews and english is my best subject, so I don't think my essay will be a problem</p>

<p>I'm not sure about my SAT scores yet but my composite ACT is 31</p>

<p>do you think I have a good change of getting in? I know my academics started off weak but I feel my extra curriculars make up for it. Can you please tell me your opinion?</p>

2

<p>yeah you have a decent shot. 31 act is in their range</p>

3

<p>yeah you have a shot...good luck</p>

<p>My S had almost the same year by year GPA's as you, except for a lower Freshman GPA. Ended up at 3.45. His SAT's were 2240, and he was rejected.</p>

5

<p>I think your GPA is a little low but you have a lot of ECs.</p>

6

<p>Good shot. Would you happen to go to IMSA?</p>

7

<p>Your GPA is low, but if admins see you really want to go there, they might accept you. You'll never know if you don't apply.</p>

8

<p>USC has a relatively low average GPA anyway. The best thing is to get your SAT/ACT up.</p>

9

<p>^I would not call an average 3.8 GPA for admitted students low, and 3.7 for the one that enroll. Check your facts first.</p>

10

<p>JW:</p>

<p>might I ask if your S was NMSF?</p>

11

<p>just have a good essay</p>

12

<p>yeah that's right. have an excellent essay, tie everything together well.</p>

13

<p>I'm an international student who, only gone to school in Sweden, I dunno my GPA but I have an averege of 17.80/20 (in sweden) I don't have any ExtraCurric (we don't have that). I havn't done the SATs (they said IntrStud didn't have to..) </p>

<p>I'm starting to feel really worried 'bout college.
What will I have to do this last year before applying to increase my chances om being admitted?</p>

<p>USC has a relatively low GPA standard, huh?? It is going to be extremely hard for you to gain admission, sorry, but not impossible! Your ACT score is fine, GPA is going to be a killer in the admissions process. Undergraduate admission to USC is getting stronger and stronger by the year, and you're going to need that "extra" statement in your essay that seperate "YOU" from other students with higher GPA's.</p>
