<p>so what you guys think?</p>

<p>I am assuming your OSS, and with that assumption, I am going to have say that your chances aren't very good with those test scores.. You really need to bring those up, considering that test scores are a HUGE factor when considering OOS students.</p>

<p>my second opinion = foxshox's opinion</p>

<p>aw man...yes well i will def. make them higher! is it cause they take in most of the TX HS graduates...esp. if they are in the top 10%?</p>

<p>yah thats why....</p>

<p>I am sure the huge majority top 10% kids have at least 1200+ on SAT m+r. I have only met one person who has had lower that wasn't top 10. The high average SAT score for UT on CB is probably the minimum you need to have as an OOS student. </p>

<p>I know I bring this up a lot, but I know somebody with a 1400-ish that didn't get in.</p>
