<p>Hi, your stats are great except for that cr score. I would guess that you will most likely get in, however UT is very number focused from what my school counselors have explained to me. I would try to raise that cr number, but if you cannot (or don’t feel the motivation to do so lol) I do not think it is the end of the world. Good luck! </p>

<p>Btw your ec’s are AMAZING ;)</p>

<p>Oh, and I would look into taking a standardized test in biology and physics or general science if possible. It would look good to have scores that show focus on your chosen major.</p>

English is his second language. It’s not that easy to raise “that cr number”. </p>

  1. Did you take TOEFL? Or you are exempt?
  2. What is your financial situation? Do you need financial aid?</p>

<p>I have taken I ELKS in which I got band 8. I don’t need aid</p>

<p>UT Austin is a reach. It is extremely tough for international students to get in. For engineering, an international student would probably require 2150+</p>

Make sure to submit you financial information ASAP to show that you are full pay student.</p>

<p>I agree with Ya Ya. Your test scores are low, not only for international students, but compared to the overall Engineering school standards. However, depending on which school you come from, and the quality of your essays and letter of recommendations (i’m guessing from one of these well regarded Doctors?), you may have a shot. BUT the biggest reason may be the fact that you are an international student who can FULLY PAY tuition and housing (possibly) without any aid! </p>

<p>Fair warning: be prepared for the rigorous history/government/english classes at UT. I understand English is not your first language, but you will have to make sure that deficiency is cleaned up sooner rather than later. Fikar nai kar, doost! (Yes, I know hindi myself :P)</p>

<p>Sorry to tell you, but considering that the average SAT for engineering is 2026, you have very little chance of getting in. </p>

<p>And I’m fairly sure that other Indian students have much better test scores.</p>
