<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>
