<p>I will definitely try that. But what are my chances of getting into schools like Baylor or Texas A&M? Also, with my current scores, will I be able to get into decent schools? I just don’t want to end up at a local community college. I am extremely stressed out!</p>

<p>Isn’t 1860 about the 85th percentile? </p>

<p>[Office</a> of Admissions | Texas A&M University - Freshman | How to be Admitted](<a href=“http://admissions.tamu.edu/freshman/admitted]Office”>http://admissions.tamu.edu/freshman/admitted) describes some ways to get admitted to Texas A&M. Class rank is very important. Note that the top 10% and academic admit methods do not involve the essays or other subjective criteria – just rank and (for academic admit) test scores.</p>
