<p>I posted this earlier but it got deleted, so sorry if you are reading it twice.</p>
<p>I want to go to USC and my sats are slightly above their 75th percentile. (Mine are 2220, their 75th is 2200). </p>
<p>Since USC is such a large private school (it accepts 7,000+ a year) will this be a huge advantage??</p>
<p>Considering all of the athletes, legacies and kids of the rich and famous, most unhooked admits have stats at, near or above the 75th percentile.</p>
<p>At the 75th percentile, your score is still lower than 25% of people who are accepted. If SAT score isn’t the only thing you’re good in, you have a good shot of course. But I wouldn’t call it a HUGE advantage.</p>
<p>Ok, cool, thanks.</p>
