<p>Hey Everyone,</p>

<p>i have a quick question. My brother who currently attends UT Austin told me that the 10% rule will no longer apply for the High School graduating class of 2011 entering Austin and I am one of those students. Is this true? Just curious. I am currently in the top 2% of my class (13 out of 712).</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>It’s been modified. Being in the top 2% you won’t have a problem getting in. There’s another thread all about it a little lower on the page.</p>

<p>75% of the class will be chosen as the Texas applicants with the highest class rank, the rest will be hand-picked. Rank can still guarantee you admission, but it’ll likely have to be better than 10% to do so and will fluxuate every year.</p>
