Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hi, I applied around late November and really I'm just wondering how I'll do</p>

<p>SAT 2000
Math 690
Writing 650
CR 660</p>

<p>ACT Comp 30
English 28
Reading 28
Mathematics 29
Science 35 (yay? :3)</p>

<p>GPA
Unweighted 3.34
Weighted 3.72</p>

<p>Rank: 32 out of 113 (~28%; my school is "notorious" for dropouts, really people that can't handle the work and go back to their home school...)</p>

<p>School: Science Academy of South Texas, a rigorous magnet school focusing on Mathematics, Sciences and Engineering</p>

<p>EC: Astronomy club (freshman), UIL Science (9,10,12) UIL Number Sense (9,10), Volunteer RGV Food Bank (freshmam), Relay for Life (fundraiser for cancer researcher and treatment, 7th-12th grade) Tutor in math and physics (9th-12th; also took a job as a tutor beginning this summer)</p>

<p>Achievements: National Hispanic Scholar; AP Scholar with Distinction</p>

<p>I've taken as many AP's as I could; the ones where I can't take AP, I take Pre-AP
Sophomore: 1 AP (Spanish Language, 5)
Junior: 5 AP (English Language 4, Physics B 5, Calculus AB 4, Spanish Literature 4, U.S. History 2)
Senior: Taking 8 Ap (English Literature, Physics C Mechanics, Physics C E&M, Chemistry, Psychology, Calculus BC, Macroeconomics, U.S. Government)</p>

<p>Wrote essays A and B, pretty well if I say so myself and my English Literature teacher agrees :)
Letters of Recommendation from mentioned English teacher and from my AP Physics teacher of 2 years</p>

<p>My school is partnered with Project Lead the Way, and I've taken engineering classes the whole of my high school, with consistent A's</p>

<p>My first choice is Civil Engineering
My second is Physics</p>

<p>So...what do you guys think? Thanks for answering :)</p>

<p>You have good stats but unfortunately I think your rank is going to really hold you back. I think about 70% people accepted are in the top 10%. The other 30% is oos people and people not in the top 10%. But I think the people not in the top 10% accepted are right around there like 11%. Your sat and act are good though so don’t be discouraged. Unfortunately ut Austin just has that top 10% rule. </p>

<p>Please chance me as well!</p>
