<p>I'm an Indian (Asian) male and I was wondering my chances to get into Cockrell school of engineering at UT to do Petroleum Engineering.
Class rank: 1/400ish
ACT: 28
SAT: 1850 (700 math, 560 on CR)
All AP classes pretty much. Senior year, 5 ap classes including physics, calc, stats, etc.
I have taken ap chemistry.
Thanks, anybody's opinion would be appreciated</p>
<p>I’m also a part of NHS, HOSA, and few clubs. I have worked at a tutoring place for young children since I was a freshmen (I am going to be a senior in the coming fall).</p>
<p>If there is any more information that would help to determine the chance, feel free to ask.
Thanks!</p>
<p>Well you have oustanding rank, and you’ll basically be relying on that to get you in because your scores are pretty weak.</p>
<p>I find it interesting that the test scores do not go with a class rank of 1/400. They are very low for a valedictorian. Obviously you are an auto-admit to UT and your class rank and GPA will help your chances with engineering but your test scores and math score will not help. Retake them if possible.</p>
<p>Thank you for the feedback. Do you think that I stand a good chance with my current standings to get into the engineering school? (I live in Texas, I forgot to clarify). Because to be honest, I don’t see much of an improvement for my scores even if I retake</p>
<p>Your Math score is ok, not great for Cockrell. You can target CR because a 600+ will get you out of a freshman course. Your rank will help a lot but it is a competitive major. </p>
<p>BTW there are plenty of tips on this site for imoroving CR or overall score.</p>
<p>Thanks for the opinions. Still looking for opinions on my chances with my current position!</p>
