<p>thanks for the input! would you guys say USC is a high match or a low match? What about some of the other schools? One of the Bs I have senior year might go away (our grades havnt been submitted yet) so there is a chance I could have a 3.8, would this change my chances at all?
USC is really a top choice for me right now and due to my recent grades, I have started to have some serious doubts. The “Mychances.com” site gives me a ridiculous percent chance of something like 86% but when I look at last year’s freshman profile I seem to have a significantly smaller chance. Anything to appease my insane nervous nature would be highly appreciated! </p>

<p>Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>The only weakness that my simple eyes can spot is the 3.79 GPA, but then again I’m still thinking about the Ivies. Don’t worry. You’re solid.</p>
