I know my ECs aren’t extraordinary, but I do show a drastic upward trend in academic performance. Thanks to anyone who takes the time to help!
Great ACT score. That’ll help a lot. Very difficult to chance non-auto admits. It will depend on the applicant pool. Get safeties. You are an academic admit at A&M. Apply early as Mays fills first come first serve.
You have a decent shot. Really try to showcase your internship in your expanded resume and explicitly mention any ways you stood out there, or skills you learned. Nice APs and ACT!
I would consider applying to P2 as well!
P2?
Plan 2 - It is a stand alone honors program. You can do Plan 2 with a separate degree in business.
