@jamesharden …Let me try and shed some light based on our experience. Maybe it would be beneficial. Last year my son got admitted to Rice and is attending as freshman. his stats were 34 ACT and 3.9 GPA top 8% of class. Lots of extracurricular activities etc. He applied RD. The class of 2019 that is attending (not accepted) Rice stats are – 40% of students had a perfect GPA (4.0 unweighted). Also 60% of students scored 1500+ on SAT (equivalent to SAT= 2250 or ACT 34). This was the best stat based class ever admitted and attending Rice as per Rice college. Based on these stats the average student attending Rice as Freshman is around 3.9 GPA and 34 ACT. Based on your stats you are above the average and I would put in the Top 30% of students. Which means 70% of students attending Rice as Freshmen have stats similar or lesser than you. Every year the stats seem to go up and this year you could be exactly in top 50% instead in the top 70%. A lot would depend upon your essays, letter of recommendation and Extracurricular activities. All in all, you have a good shot at getting into Rice. Good luck!
