HOW I GOT INTO USC WITH A LOW SAT | MY STATS + ESSAYS
Рет қаралды 28,566
Күн бұрынDISCLAIMER: I am not an admissions counselor, but this is how I believe that I was able to get into USC despite my low SAT score. If you liked this and would like to learn more about either my major (Architecture) or hear more of my college essays please let me know in the comments. I am still compiling questions for a Q&A so if you have any you can also ask them below!

Im no admission officer but a advice that I got from my college counselor is that… “GPA and SAT are for scholarships and to get college to notice you, they play a major role, but your Essay and Extracurriculars are what helps them choose between you and the other applicants.”

Your unweighted GPA is about the same as mine, but you must have taken a nice workload of APs and Honors. My weighted GPA is about a 3.88 but that's because my school only offers I can only take at most 2 APs per year during my upperclassmen years bc of prerequisites, and I got a B in Algebra I in 8th grade, and instead of having 3.9 in Freshmen year, I had a 3.7, so it's nice to know that I have a chance to still get into USC with my scores and my extracurriculars, especially since I've been going about my main one since elementary school. I'm also becoming a better writer, and I'm becoming so much more hopeful for when I apply this fall

It’s depends on how the school weight the classes. My school valedictorians GPA’s are 4.44 (the highest) and that’s because they weight a semester of honors 0.02. For me I took Honors Microbiology this year (Junior) and will take General Psychology (Dual enroll) during the summer. Also I’m taking Honors/AP Chem II and Honors/AP Gov and dual enroll in English 4 Technical writing. Also I’m taking Trig/Analytic Geometry which is considered Honors in many school. The highest GPA I can get is 4.1 which means then jump is 0.1 while having a 4.0 weighted GPA. But if I were in other school, I might have 4.3 or 4.4 weighted or even higher

Hi, I am a high school senior and have 4.14 weighted GPA and 3.86 unweighted GPA. Does anyone know or think if this is a good enough or safe GPA for USC? You guys can be very honest. I am going through college apps rn and I really need serious advice or feedback not a sweet comment :') (oh bty I am a California resident)

The competition isn’t so much with scores anymore since a lot of applicants have good scores. I think they look at your essays more now to really see your personality and ambitions and that’s where there’s the competition
