<p>If you can push the verbal stuff up into the 700 range you'll look a lot better. You have a shot even with current scores. Try to find some leadership positions in your ECs.</p>

<p>rice takes only scores from one sitting?
i think you got pretty good chance with your stats right now, >50%</p>

<p>id say you have a good chance, but probably not necessarily >50%.</p>

<p>alright chances. but being in state (and in the same city) will hurt. theres probably tons of houstonians applying to rice.</p>
