School rank-31/415 </p>

<p>SAT II: Math 2: 720 Physics: 610

<p>AP Classes: AP World, AP Physics </p>

<p>Senior year schedule:

<p>It looks like my mid-year report is going to be a 3.9 at the lowest. </p>

<p>Extracurriculars: Biotech project placed ninth at TSA Nationals (studied the usage of algae as a food and as a fuel), Designed a Flow Cytometer and we plan to create a biofuel this year, Varsity Swim team 4 years and captain 2 years, Secretary of STEM Club, Secretary of Tutor Club, and participated on an iGem team junior year </p>

<p>Recommendations: I sent 2 recs and they are very good. </p>

<p>How would it affect my chances if I were to drop anatomy second semester?</p>

Thanks</p>

<p>Academically, you look pretty good for USC, your ACT is around that mark but your low Reading grade may work against you. However, in terms of extra curricular activities, I think your not so good looking for that. USC looks for incredibly well rounded students and is very competitive (don’t think I need to tell you that). There are many students who have a lot more extracurriculars. Don’t be disheartened though! I think USC is still around the high match to match region for you. Good luck!</p>

<p>He has extracurriculars that matter; two really solid ones, and that’s the important thing. He doesn’t overinflate his ECs like most CC kids do. </p>

<p>I would be surprised if you do not get in to USC.</p>

<p>USC is a match.</p>

<p>How important is the mid year report to USC?</p>

<p>Seeing that your senior class schedule (in terms of difficulty) is not a huge step up, I’d say it’s vital that you get good grades as USC will want to see continued improvement, and a harder curriculum.</p>
