Just my luck....

<p>Rank 44/435 (10.1~ Percent)</p>

<p>BUT WAIT TOP 10 AUTOMATIC IS 10.09 </p>

<p>Me = Owned</p>

<p>Will I have an easier chance to get in, or just be thrown in with the rest of the non-top 10% students</p>

<p>maybe they wont notice :)</p>

<p>What does your official h.s. transcript say?
CLASS RANK 44/435
or what?</p>

<p>You won't be automatically admitted so in a sense you will be thrown in with all the other non-top 10%ers. But your ranking is basically tied with the highest rankings that can be seen for a non-top10% student so you will have an advantage when they do their formula thing to see if they should accept you or not; however it is no guaranteed admission (especially this year).</p>

<p>My rank on UTDirect is 44/435.</p>

<p>oh yeah, 3 of my siblings went to UT, does that help me?</p>

<p>No, they don't take into consideration if you know alumni.
i wish that were the case.
funny thought ... UT is kind of the reason I was born, my parents met there.</p>

<p>i was told by many that it does help you though.</p>

<p>I heard a few years ago that having siblings at UT did helped you but I haven't heard it lately and it's not on their list of things they take into account for in application process...</p>

<p>And I don't remember it being on the application either. If it really made a difference then it would have asked "Do you have any siblings at UT? Name: ... " So maybe things have gotten too competitive to take that into consideration.</p>

<p>yeah sounds good... what do you guys think my chances are :X</p>

<p>^ Pretty good. Probably in with at least a 1900 SAT</p>

<p>You should find the last guy that dropped out and talk him into coming back to school... then you're made. Ha.</p>

<p>This kinda happened to me. During my junior year I was top ten and there were 800 or so people in my class. But when senior year rolled around, the class size dropped to 600, which dropped me out of the top ten. Kinda sucked.</p>

<p>oh well, i mean i have alot of EC and my SAT suck, but i mean :( im only 1/2 a person off, i hope they are nice to me</p>

<p>that sucks, I feel really bad for you. I hope that they just overlook that little detail.</p>

<p>Wow, that sucks...sorry</p>

<p>pray4me please!</p>
