Thoughts on doing aways at USC or UCLA? < USC hardly interviews their away rotators<USC has 4 spots. 2/4 on average go to internals+research fellows. you are ranked higher as an internal if they like you even if grades or some other academics are not up to par compared to external interviewees. so difficulty mode is legendary doing an away there with no prior connections hoping to match there < If you want to match there, I'd do an away!
