<p>Hi!</p>
<p>I really want to get into USC. Do you think I have a chance?
I'm from the Netherlands.</p>
<p>Stats:
GPA 3.0 - (I go to the highest high school level in the country, a level only 4% attends, i'ts much harder to get an A here. So all my courses are similar to AP courses.)
No test scores yet. (Planning on getting really high scores.) </p>
<p>Extracurriculars:
On the youth council of the development organization "Foster Parents."
Attended several international conferences.
President of the "Helping China" project. (Will be going to China for that next year.)
Set up an Alcohol Awareness Project.
Organized workshops in a refugee center.
Tutored in Latin.
Coordinated social-traineeships.
Assistent-counselor of the freshman.
On the redaction of the school newspaper.
Got selected for a leadership course.
Took a "Cambridge Advanced" and "Cambridge Proficiency" course.</p>
<p>Summer: Will be going to summer school at Pepperdine University and will help in an orphanage in Sri Lanka for 3 weeks.</p>
<p>I don't need financial aid or a scholarship. </p>
<p>And I'm planning on getting really good recommendation letters and writing mindblowing essays. (writing is my passion, so to speak.)</p>
<p>Do you think I have a good chance? I'm afraid my grades are going to hold me back.</p>
