<p>Bump Bump Bump Bump More Chances Por Favorrr</p>

<p>i’d say you have a good chance, your application looks strong</p>

<p>I think I’ve chanced you before and had you match at USC, but in case I didn’t–</p>

<p>Still figure you are a “match”. The only problem area is the GPA, obviously–but your fantastic upward trend and the great test scores–along with solid ECs and the fact that you’ve been working should put you over the top–barely, though.</p>

<p>Make sure that the essays are good. A bad essay could cause them to overlook the great improvement.</p>

<p>Best of luck.</p>

<p>P.S. Your parents both being “legacies” also help a ton, obviously–but I think you are a good candidate even without them having both gone to USC.</p>

<p>Really good chance</p>

<p>“dude both your parents having gone to USC is like an insane bonus”</p>

<p>I’ve heard from cc411 that legacy doesn’t matter at all to USC?? </p>

<p>any other chances? :)</p>

12

<p>I’d say you’re in at USC. Double legacy from USC!!</p>

<p>It definitely matters.</p>

<p>USC: Strong match (80%)</p>

<p>UCI: Safe match (90%)</p>

<p>It’s weird that UCI and USC are almost equal in chances when USC is way better, but UC’s care a lot more about GPA/SAT’s which you’re weakest in. USC cares a lot more about Alumni association and extracurriculars, which you rock in.</p>

13

<p>Wow. Thanks Flippy. I chanced you earlier. Good luck in your apps and acceptances hopefully! </p>

<p>I don’t think I’m that safe. A lot of people say Alumni doesn’t matter? I don’t know..</p>

<p>Well it helps a bit if you’re a legacy. And BOTH of your parents are legacies…making it a double adv…which should make a diff</p>
