Hey guys. I’m kinda weird.
Unweighted GPA (4.0) - 3.18
SAT (New) - 1520
Essays are pretty good, extra-curriculars include -
Debate (Went to district 2 times for 2 different events - LD and CX)
Model UN (President)
Eagle Scout
have a couple more, this is what’s more relevant.
Awards - AP Scholar with Distinction, MENSA (??? not sure if it counts, just put it in my app. I know it makes me look pretentious)
Applying to Phil Major with Honors in LA (reach.)
I really sucked in school, but I’m just hoping I can get in through, really, everything else.
Thanks.
As you know, UT is a reach. You have the SAT score but your GPA and therefore your rank is low for UT. You did apply to one of the nonhyper competitive majors. I think Honors is not in the picture. As far as grades, if your lower grades were in your early years, 9th grade, and they were consistently better in 10th and 11th, I think they would take that into consideration. Your ECs are good. I think you may be a candidate for CAP or PACE which could work for you since you want a LA degree. I hope you have acceptances at some other universities so you have some options.
I think you have a good chance of getting in for Phil major, but most likely NOT in honors program.
