UT Austin.. Chance Me?

<p>Hey, first time posting. I would just like to see where I stand at getting into UT Austin for the fall of 2014.</p>

<p>ACT: 27
SAT: 1760 (690 Math)
GPA: 4.705/5.0 (Weighted)
Rank: 38/516 (2 people out of top 7% for automatic admission)</p>

<p>Very close in automatic admission, I've been accepted to A&M Business, but I'd really like to go to UT. My first choice major is Economics (Liberal Arts) and second choice Computer Science (Natural Sciences)</p>

<p>I realize I have low ACT and SAT score, but I am only taking the ACT one more time in less than 3 weeks.</p>

<p>The one thing that makes me stand out is that I started my own business at 14. It was a website that generated around $300 a month, that I sold a little over a year later for over $4200. </p>

<p>I feel my essays were all strong, especially topic c on relating my current goals to my future. I focused strongly on the website and other things I have done that are business related. (Made $1600 buying and reselling iPhones). My topic A might be my best essay though. </p>

<p>I have one strong recommendation from a UT Law Grad that has known me all my life.</p>

<p>If you do not think I will get in, will UT at least offer me the PACE program and not CAP me?</p>

<p>Just would like to know what my chances are at getting in, thanks!</p>

<p>Anyone…?</p>

<p>Tough call, improve your scores and update them if you can, won’t hurt, good luck</p>

<p>yeah i agree with peteintx1. your gpa is outstanding, but you definitely need to improve your test scores for UT Austin. i’d say get your ACT up to at least a 29, and you might have a shot. post back when you get the scores. good luck :)</p>
