...college? I'm a high school sophomore, and I'm horrible at sports. Also, I come from a small town where the same people make sports teams every year, based on their "school status". My school doesn't offer a lot of extracurricular activities other than sports, and most of theme are Student Council and Youth and Government. Other than those, activities such as journalism and art don't get as big a rep in our school, so what are the chances of me getting into a school such as USC? This has really been bothering me for the past couple of months.
I havent officially taken the SAT yet, but I took the PSAT and scored 160. My GPA is 3.8.
 
sports and extracurriculars usually come third after
1. SAT and ACT scores
2. your GPA
or if your going to college where you need a personal statment that comes third.
the only time sports come first is if your recruited to play in college
USC is a hard school to get into, it really just depends on your scores and gpa
