Thoughts/Reflection
Major and study-wise, University of Southern California has everything I could ever dream of. Whether I want to go there is the question. I visited the campus before and, though it seemed fun and friendly, it did not seem quite the right environment. For one, the school is very large and in the middle of a even larger city, Los Angeles. Am I independent enough to live there? How safe is the school? It has everything I want to study and I even have a couple of friends there, but, I'm not so sure. Nevertheless, USC is a very good school and I will apply there. I have already sent my SAT scores.
