<p>It’s the competitive side of me that likes winning arguments.</p>
<p>Actually, I, along with others, disproved your point. Rather than say “You win, but only because I don’t want to flood these boards with such a dumb discussion,” you should just say “I was wrong. My bad.” At least that’s the mature way to handle this discourse.</p>
<p>UT actually does care a lot about ranking and percentile, but a lot of students are an exception due to their SATs or ACTs scores or community service and extra curricular activities or event their interviews. The reason why UT is exceptionally difficult to get into or so many people say, but I honestly don’t think so - probably because i was ranked 16 in my class tho, is because UT is an EXCELLENT business school. </p>
<p>This site lists UT as the 16th best school for grad studies and many other sites list it as 10th. That being said, everyone has their own opinions and you were a bit credulous to think that just because your friends are “dumb” that makes UT a false advertised school.</p>
