<p>pqrrrqjjjqq, </p>

<p>From your extremely detailed post, I’d say that you are extremely well-qualified, academically, at least.
You didn’t mention you GPA, but I’m assuming it’s pretty high. The only two things I would reccommend to you would be to certainly join lacrosse, but also to perhaps write a more original essay, perhaps something that makes you unique, or something unusual/cool (perhaps your medical experience?) that the admissions director won’t already know about you, instead of emphasizing your obvious dedication to hard work.
I think that your extensive community service and your unique extracurriculars and academic programs put you in a very good position. However, if you are an out of state applicant, I would also reccomend raising your SAT scores to increase your chances of admittance.
I would state that USC would be a match for you. </p>
