Wrote an essay over my interest and education in the stock market and what influenced it. I manage $10000 worth of stocks for my parents.
These 2 essays are fantastic (imo) I had trouble writing the one of interacting with different cultures but i belive it is still above average</p>
<p>Would 2 good letters of reccomendation improve my chances?</p>
<p>I spoke with an admissions counselor and he told me that me being in the 41% of my class would hurt me a little but I still had a chance. However, like all university employees, they wont tell you what they think your chances are. Hopefully i can get some feedback from some current students at TAMU or people in simalar situations at other selective schools. I have recieved automatic admission to UT Dallas but I wasnt too impressed with the campus. If there are any other schools you guys can reccomend that would be great!</p>
