<p>Hey there!,</p>
<p>I was wondering if anyone could take the time to help a worried Junior see his chances in getting into USC with my current track. and if they're are any improvements i can make (i know myself i need a few things done)</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Classes Taken:</p>
<p>(Just a forewarning, our feeder school district does a terrible job with placement and placed a lot of worthy people in a Physical Science class instead of Biology as fresmen while some people that were in Freshmen Bio ended up taking remedial classes by their junior year or are struggling with AP Chemistry/Bio, HS district finally realized this and are completely revamping the curriculums and are having the final say in class placement)</p>
