<p>Cockrell is pretty rank-heavy (as would UT Austin as a whole) but, unless Cockrell considers Indian GPAs differently from American ones, this is your weak spot. A 87% average in school is a 3.6 in my mind. But, if that sort of average nets a top-5% rank, it’s perhaps a good thing, too.</p>

<p>I’d say a match at this stage even if your SAT score (1460 on the 1600 scale; Cockrell operates on the 1600 scale) is a little above the average.</p>
