<pre><code> I go to a college prep high school, an I am not taking any Honors or aps due to my busy athletic and ec's agenda, will that effect my acceptance rates?
</code></pre>

<p>How can I increase my chances? And what should I try to score on the SAT(already taking classes)
Thanks everyone, have a blessed day/night!(:</p>

<p>it was A-'s both semesters for history sophomore year, not C and B’s</p>

<p>You’ll get more feedback when you come back with actual SAT score and how much can you afford. In the meantime, for USC look at money matters to see what you need to score to be granted a OOS tuition reduction/tuition waiver. You can also see how your current stats stack up with freshman profile.</p>
