<p>Your rank is pretty good.. but your scores are pretty terrible. The scores are just too low I think for UT. Your going to need to at least break 1300 or 29 to even have a chance I think.</p>

<p>As you can see, my weakness is tests! It's like I study and forget everything on tests. I retook the SAT last weekend, but I don't think I did any better. In fact, I think I did worse. I know UT automatically takes the top 10% in state. Do they do anything for top 10% out of state?</p>

<p>Nope nothing out of state... They will look at your rank and your SAT, but when your OOS the SAT accounts for more, which puts you in a bad position. Not to be insulting, but if you study and forget everything on tests, I don't know how well you will make it in a class where the final is 40% of your grade.</p>

<p>I was rejected :(</p>

<p>They are doing rolling admissions now?</p>

<p>Man, all these people with decisions allready. Just let me know if I'm accepted or not! I applied August 1st, and all my documents are in.</p>

<p>DP</p>

<p>I think that last year they didn't send rejections to out of state students until February.</p>
