<p>In at all. I know that McCombs is hard to beat in reputation and price, but you should give yourself some more credit, and apply to schools like Wharton, Stern, Sloan, etc.</p>

<p>Don’t worry about getting into UT, they love you TAMS kids. It represents a huge commitment, even if you didn’t excel there. Your SAT score and other credentials are too good for them to pass up. </p>

<p>I know you’re probably worried about it because of that dumb top 10% rule, but don’t be. </p>

<p>Check out Rice, too. I’m sure everyone you know at school is. Don’t count yourself out!</p>

<p>With a 3.3, TuOwls??! Are you serious? That’s like straight Bs, and you’re telling him to apply to Wharton, the best business school in the country… yikes</p>

<p>but I still think you’ll be good everywhere in Texas except UT. If you’re not top 10%, it is super competitive.</p>

5

<p>This is a TAMS kid, he IS the competition!</p>

6

<p>oh snap, didn’t notice the TAMS part. I sort of skimmed it lol</p>

7

<p>Yeah, even with a 3.3, a TAMS kid has no less of a shot at Wharton.</p>

8

<p>Haha, I love how TAMS automatically makes him different. I would’ve gone there if I didn’t want to major in English and Social Sciences.</p>

<p>UT-Austin and A & M is a good business school but UT is the better school..</p>

<p>UT-Austin= 13th best business school
A & M= 31st best business school</p>

<p>[Undergrad</a> - BSchools](<a href=“http://bwnt.businessweek.com/interactive_reports/undergrad_bschool/]Undergrad”>http://bwnt.businessweek.com/interactive_reports/undergrad_bschool/)</p>

<p>You have a shot to get into UT.. don’t worry, man.</p>

10

<p>I’m sorry, I feel like such a noob, but what is TAMS and why does it put him at such a big advantage?</p>

^This is TAMS. Hopefully it is the advantage everyone is saying it is.</p>
