Chance me usc

<p>I am currently a sophomore in High School. I have always wanted to attend USC, but I recently looked into the acceptance rate and its around 20%. I would really appreciate if you looked at my current grades and give me tips on how to accomplish this goal. I am aware that my chance so far is very slim but please bare with me.</p>

<p>Freshman Year- Ranked Private high school (they did not weigh GPA)
GPA- 3.0
Sports- JV soccer
Clubs- Invisible children, latin america club, jewish student club, biology club, geometry club</p>

<p>TRANSFERRED SCHOOLS</p>

<p>Sophomore Year Public school (3 honors classes)
1st semester GPA - 3.93w 3.3 uw
Sports- JV Lacrosse
Clubs- Jewish Student Union (vice president)</p>

<p>SCHEDULE FOR JUNIOR YEAR (taking 3 AP courses and 2 honors)</p>

<p>I am taking tutoring all summer (going into Junior year) for the ACT. Junioir and senior year I will continue to take challenging courses. </p>

<p>What are my chances so far of getting accepted?</p>

<p>What can I do to increase my chances? </p>

<p>Do colleges look at freshman year? If they do will they be able to see how I went to a ranked private high school that didn't offer weigh GPA's?</p>

<p>What ACT score should I strive to get?</p>

<p>USC: Reach; aim for 32+</p>

<p>Your GPA is your biggest issue and try to score at least 30 on the ACT for a shot at USC. Good luck!
