<p>Your chances are excellent, although your course rigor and SAT II’s might come into question. Any leadership positions? Being in-state does not really matter. Good luck.</p>
<p>Pretty good GPA, solid SAT scores. </p>
<p>You don’t, however, to have excelled in really rigorous academic coursework (3s on AP tests aren’t so great) as the previous poster said; the ECs are also VERY generic. Unless you have something that makes you stand out and look really “spectacular” (hobbies, talents, interests, life story, etc) there’s nothing here that will really “wow” an admissions committee.</p>
<p>Sorry, I am just going to ask a quick question on this thread. Does USC take into huge consideration a less than average SATII score? I got a horrible 530 on Literature and 680 US History. How badly will bad SATII hurt an app?</p>
