I checked the middle 50% statisitics on the Undergrad Admissions webpage. The range is1070-1250 (they dont count the writing section).So based on that stat alone, you are falling below the 50% .You might be able to offset your score with your GPA,they want a B+ or better.
Do you anticipate repeating the SAT in October?
Are you interested in Sports Management at all?From your background,it seems like you might be.If so, you possible can get in contact with someone directly in the SM Dep't and get some admissions advice from them. The Chairman of the Dept is Dr Regan,hes a really nice man (hes my S's advisor).</p>

<p>I am retaking in OCT</p>

<p>Anyone else?</p>

<p>Scout, Your resume is impressive, but your SAT scores and GPA might be a little low. It all does depend, however, on what kind of applicants that you are up against. USC's freshman class is their most competitive classes so far. Their average SAT and GPA exceeded USC's previous requirements. I'm not sure how that will effect this year's applicants. If you can get those SATs (Math and Verbal) closer to 1100, I'd say that your chances would increase. Another consideration would be number of honors, AP, IB or dual enrollments you have taken while in high school. Good luck!!</p>
