Chance me for UT Austin Computer Science

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hey guys,</p>

<p>I'm going to apply to the school of natural sciences at UT Austin for computer science.</p>

<p>Here are my stats</p>

<p>SAT: 2210, (Math 710, CR 790, Writing 710)</p>

<p>PSAT: 209 (commended)</p>

<p>GPA: 5.337, the cutoff for top ten percent is a 5.35, and my school doesn't rank after that but I'm pretty sure its top 11 percent</p>

<p>Around a 3.75 unweighted on a 4.0 scale</p>

<p>I've taken around 15 AP classes in high school</p>

<p>I will be taking AP Comp Sci next year</p>

<p>I have a few leadership positions: captain of the chess team, vice president of the economics club</p>

<p>I do some volunteering out the local religious organization (100+ hrs)</p>

<p>I am also doing an internship over the summer at a local computer based company</p>

<p>Based on this, do I have any chance of getting in?</p>

<p>I also live in state</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>My friend was in the same position as you were! He wanted to apply to computer science at UT. He was in the eight percent at magnet school and same exact SAT score as you. And he got rejected!
If I were you, either get that SAT score higher or get a better rank to ensure you get admitted into the major of your choice!!! </p>

<p>Ahh okay. I will most likely be in the top ten percent after the first semester of this year, but that might be too late to matter for admissions. I’m also taking the SAT this october so hopefully my score will increase.</p>

<p>Any other thoughts or suggestions?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>I just looked at my school’s Naviance page. The average acceptance is like a 2070 for my school. Your SAT score is higher than the 75th percentile (2060 according to Naviance). I’d say you have a pretty good shot in.</p>

<p>I think it’s a match… you’ll most likely get in.</p>
