<p>What do you think I need to do to improve my chances? I really want to go to A&M (My parents are both alums, I don't know if that will help), but I will be applying to Auburn and Texas Tech as my backups.</p>
<p>Any chance you could improve to top 25% ? Rank is the only thing holding you back from auto academic admit. Most spots go to the auto admits so the odds of getting in decrease significantly even with good test scores. </p>
<p>I already have all A’s this year, so j can not improve my gpa until senior year, which doesn’t matter. I really screwed up my first two years of high school. If I do not make it into TAMU, do you think I would have a shot at Texas Tech’s honors college?</p>
<p>I go to A&M now and believe that you have a shot.
I don’t think that you will be an auto-admit but you have a solid chance at reivewed admission… if you get blinn team, take it. You are definitely smart enough to succeed there to get into a&m with those scores</p>
