Questions and Chances At USC!!!!

Applying to College

<p>I am a junior in HS and I have a couple questions about USC.</p>

<p>Just for clarification, I cannot do any topic for my USC essay, I must choose their topics right?</p>

<p>Can I send in two teacher/counselor recommendation? Or is the limit one?</p>

<p>Does this look good on the resume? : I attended a summer journalism program at Yale and I have been mentioned on the NYTimes.com</p>

<p>What are my chances at USC? </p>

<p>I am a junior in New England. I have a 3.8-3.9 (UW) and 4.40 (W). I take all honors classes and am currently taking one AP class. </p>

<p>I have great ECs. I am a part of five clubs. I am president in one of them and I started one club. And I have attended a Yale summer journalism program and I have been on the NY Times!</p>

<p>I was a lead volunteer at Yale hospital and have 224 hours of service. I am also a part of the student government. </p>

<p>I got a 149(0) on my PSATs, but I was sick that day and I studied for about 30 minutes. I am not making any excuses. I got a 1925 on my first practice SAT test!</p>

<p>Will that ruin my chances for those schools?</p>

<p>I will STUDY HARD for the SATs and I have enrolled in Kaplan!</p>

<p>USC SCA '14 here.</p>

<p>Your GPA is good, your extracurrics are wonderful, but your SAT score is lacking. Bring that up to about at least 2100ish and you’re golden. Otherwise, your chance to get in are ehhh. But if you do get in with that SAT score, you may be placed in SCP.</p>

<p>So with a 2100, you think I’m in?</p>
