<p>I was on the USC website and clicked the "admissions" tab and in the corner top left corner where they have those little factoids about USC there were some SAT stats...</p>
<p>For the entering freshmen class</p>
<p>Average combined: 1350
Middle 50%: 1280-1420</p>
<p>Just thought that was cool</p>
<p>are these admitted? or just applied?</p>
<p>I just pulled it up again, i'm almost positive it means accepted students...</p>
<p>the exact wording is...</p>
<p>"SAT I Score of Freshman Class
Average combined: 1350
Middle 50%: 1280-1420"</p>
<p>that has to be at least a year or two old though... cause that's the old SAT scale..</p>
<p>either that or their standard has really gone down</p>
<p>it's probably old. collegeboard has the newer stats using the new sat scores.</p>
<p>I'm pretty sure those numbers are from adding together only the Math and CR sections- not the Writing.</p>
<p>haha ya, of course they are out of 1600, but I was just wondering if they are up to date, cuz I if they were just old scores they would have to be from all the way back in 2005, right?</p>
<p>usc doesn't update it's site very often. you can tell by the deadlines. this one portion kept telling me the deadline was 12-10 when it was really 12-11. hahaha.</p>
<p>but um. the new scores are 1980-2180 for the middle 50th percentile. i think.</p>
<p>where did you get that SAT range from? jw</p>
<p>apparently, usc's admit rate went down too. it's 25% now :|</p>
<p>I'm guessing the acceptance rate for the class of 2011 be somewhere in the neighborhood of 23%. The 25% figure was for the class of 2010. <a href="http://media.www.dailytrojan.com/media/storage/paper679/news/2006/04/17/News/Acceptance.Rate.Dips.To.AllTime.Low-1856866.shtml%5B/url%5D">http://media.www.dailytrojan.com/media/storage/paper679/news/2006/04/17/News/Acceptance.Rate.Dips.To.AllTime.Low-1856866.shtml</a></p>
<p>at explore they said the average sat for the class of 2011 will be a 2100</p>
<p>oh my lord 23%....... scares me already. gawwwwwwwwwsh.</p>
<p>ah 2100! wow, hopefully 2070 will suffice...</p>
<p>LOL it won't be 23%. it took like 3 years to go down to a 25%.</p>
<p>:( i'm so nervous</p>
<p>well they also said that there were 13 applications for every 1 spot in the freshman class, and assuming a yield rate of about 1/3 which seems pretty fair, yeah that's like a 23% acceptance rate. keeping in mind that we're in a demographic bubble of insanely high achieving students (you know, the toughest year yet, etc.) so it wouldn't be surprising to make the 2% decrease.</p>
<p>yeah usc received 4 thousand more applications than last year i think. and pmcharkins, i got a presidential scholarship with a 2080, so don't fret your SATs.</p>
<p>Fall 2005 was 27% and Fall 2006 was 25%, so I guess 23% isn't unrealistic.</p>
<p>it wasn't 2005 i think.</p>
