One away from top 7%

Hi everyone. I submitted my application a few weeks ago and mystatus is “in review”. I am ONE person away from auto admit (7.1 %) and was wondering if that has any effect on my chances… SAT score is 1340 GPA 3.8 UW and I have good EC/essays/letters of rec in my opinion. I’m applying for public health in CNS. Any related admission acceptance/rejection stories or just knowledge on this situation would be appreciated!! Thank you!

UT considers how competitive you are with others in your desired major - and honestly, if there’s a lot of auto-admits scoring lower than 1340 in CNS, the better your chances.
