<p>The time of acceptance letters is getting closer and closer, and to be quite frank, I'm getting anxious.</p>
<p>USC is my top choice.</p>
<p>3.6 UW GPA
multiple AP and honors courses
2020 SAT
competitive California hs</p>
<p>I'm hoping my ec can really bring me over the edge for usc; I know they like to see well rounded students. </p>
<p>Essentially, a few years ago I got involved in an upstart website that over the course of my hs career I helped grow into an alexa top 50k site. It's profitable, I'm in a management roll, and it's given me the opportunity to travel across the world. I intertwined this into a really strong personal statement that rolled with the whole personal growth them. </p>
<p>My grades sort of slipped junior year but first semester senior year I took a pretty heavy course load (for a senior lol) and pulled a 4.5 GPA.</p>
<p>Additionally I have strong letters of rec from my speech and debate coaches and my father is an alumnus. </p>
<p>Realistically, I know I'm at the lower end of the application pool gpa wise but do you guys thing my extra **** is enough to push me over the cusp??</p>
<p>thanks</p>
