USC ESSAY question

<p>Hey are we going off the tangent or even the topic? So yeah, are you fine on the paragraph or essay now?</p>

<p>3.55 as of now - hoping to bring it to 3.66 next quarter. I go to UCR, and i heard USC takes that into account. I seriously could have done better but first year of college was pretty crazy - didn't really apply myself. My GPA rose higher and higher over the course of the year so i'm hoping that has a good impression. I addressed why i didn't do so well in the first essay (newton one). Stupid morongo and partying lol.</p>

<p>i have no idea...i have some sort of a start but its not looking too great..</p>

<p>I think you have a good chance for USC as well as UCLA with 3.55. What major though?</p>

<p>well i think you have a good shot.. definately stronger than ucla although you probably are good there too but im really no expert</p>

<p>business =/ </p>

<p>i think i'm gonna be rejected from ucla because
1. i'm intercampus
2. gpa is too low for major - 3.8+ is average ucla transfer . ouch</p>

<p>so yeah, i'm really banking on usc.</p>

<p>Nah... intercampus is not disadvantageous to you since they give priority for both CCs and other UCs as well! but your GPA is little lower than it should be.</p>

<p>okay back to the essay... do you think they want you to talk about something from your college life in terms or achievements/activities or can we talk about any significant achievements in our life?</p>

<p>Focus on one activity or accomplishment that is the most important to you and discuss what you have learned from this experience.</p>

<p>nope, doesn't have to be from college. I talked about an activity i did in highschool. I think the most important thing for this essay is what you got from the experience.</p>
