<p>Random: 1st generation college student, live with single mom (widowed) with $10,000 annual income.</p>
<p>My first choice is UT Austin Cockrell School of Engineering. Dream school University of Tokyo (Harvard of Japan,so I'll give it a shot, not asking or chances haha) I chose my first major as Chemical Engineering, and Civil Engineering for my 2nd on my application. I'm not top 8% so I know my chances are looking not great. If I get offered their CAP program, should I accept it, or go to Texas Tech? (already accepted) My SAT doesn't meet their calculus readiness as of now, so I will take it again in December since I got an 800 on 2 math practice tests after brushing up on math from 3 years ago, so I know I will be able to meet it for this upcoming SAT. There's not much more I can do since my rank is screwed up already :/ Any feedback would help my nerves ;_; thank you!</p>
