<p>I'm a sophomore who has applied to TAMS at UNT for the Class of 2008. At the moment, I'm waiting for my Nov. 5 SAT scores. For obvious reasons, I'm getting a little bit anxious and was wondering if anyone could give me an idea of what my chances are. The application asked for information from 7th grade (which I don't remember the stats from particularly well) up to current sophomore grades.</p>
<p>Grade: Sophomore

All 100's, 99's, and 98's except for Honors Algebra 1, which was a 91 <em>cringe</em> I had just moved back to my hometown after two years living overseas and was so busy trying to make friends that I really slide grade-wise that year. I blame the hormones and general stupidity.</p>

<p>I've probably managed to leave out most awards and EC's because the weekend does something to my mind. I know that I received very strong teacher recommendations and am pretty sure that my essays were strong. </p>
<p>So what are my chances?</p>
