<p>What do you think my chances are?</p>
<p>Sorry, but I believe your chances are very low, as your GPA and test scores are not competitive for USC. However your ACT score is good (outside of the realm of schools like USC) and so I would advocate applying to less competitive schools, ex: Cal states, lower UC’s. Or if USC happens to be your dream school, I would do some research on how difficult it would be to transfer in after a year or two at a different school. Best of luck to you!</p>
<p>Reread please, I didn’t say USC, I said UCSC = University of California Santa Cruz</p>
<p>hahaha I’m so sorry, based upon that, your chances have vastly improved</p>
<p>Would you say I’m likely for Santa Cruz? (Also yeah I know no USC XD)</p>
<p>That’s hard to say as your GPA is below average, but because you have a great ACT score, I think that you can get in! Just be sure to put a lot of effort into your essays and also be sure to apply to a safety school. Good luck to you!</p>
<p>Do you think my strengths in my current major I’m planning may help at all?</p>
<p>If anything, I think they will be enough to edge you in.</p>
<p>Ya man your ACT looks really good. i also want to go there next year</p>
