[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the OP. My kid wants to attend school in California and has grades that seem to be strong for UC admissions (lots of A minuses but no Bs--so a 4.0 under the UC GPA calculation) so in theory will be a stronger applicant under this grading paradigm than for many private universities. [/quote] But the UCs will not be giving him any credit for rigor, which probably matters more. A minuses likely not enough for USC these days unless at a school where no one gets As, because the acceptance rate is now below 10 percent, but it’s worth a try. Some like Santa Clara as a likely. I’d go out and look before applying. The campuses are underwhelming for the price.[/quote] Lots of Big 3 students are admitted to USC. I think those schools have an overall higher admit rate to USC, than the general population. That school loves rich private school students. [/quote]
