Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hi! I'm an incoming senior class of 2014 at an in state public high school and I'm not in the top 7%, so auto admission is not an option for me... leading to an exponentially higher amount of stress and pressure. </p>

<p>Class Rank: 70 out of 472 ( about 15%) </p>

<p>Unweighted 4.0 GPA: 3.67
Weighted 4.0 GPA: 4.69</p>

<p>SAT
Total: 1940 out of 2400</p>

<p>I'm also white.</p>

<p>AP classes:</p>

<p>AP English Lang this year.
Taking all AP core classes next year, as well as AP environmental science and Psychology. </p>

<p>Extracurriculars:</p>

<p>2 year officer of HOSA (Health occupation students of America)
Member of NHS
Member of PALs (Peer Assstance Leadership)
Band all 4 years, (Section Leader for 3)
French club
Dance at Premier Dance Academy for 6 years
Girl Scouts (Earned the Bronze and Silver Awards, working on my Gold. Equivalent to the Eagle award of Boy Scouts.)
Member of summer swim league for 13 years (Volunteer coach for 3 summers)
Active member of church youth group, attending out of state, week long summer mission trips for 6 years in a row. </p>

<p>** I am applying either for an English or psychology major. </p>

<p>UT Austin is my number one favorite dream school but my other choices for schools are LSU, Texas Tech, TCU, and Baylor, so if you can help chance me for those schools that would be awesome as well! </p>

<p>I'm mostly just nervous because I've heard that it's hard to get in if you aren't auto accepted. Thank you for your time!</p>

<p>UT will be a reach. Class rank and GPA are average to a little low. Applying for English or psychology will help. Your SAT isn’t too bad but a 2060+ will put you in a better category.</p>

<p>For LSU, TT and Baylor I say you have a good chance. In fact you are an auto-admit to Texas Tech and I think LSU too. TCU is a low reach.</p>

<p>UT-Austin: High match
TCU: Match
Texas Tech: Safety (auto-admitted since you have 1140+ CR+M)
LSU: Safety
Baylor: Low match</p>

<p>I would recommend getting that rank up for UT, if at all possible. I’ve heard they only admit around 20% of their students not automatically. You should be fine for Tech and TCU. Baylor might be a slight reach. I don’t know about LSU. Best of luck! :)</p>

<p>Thanks y’all! :)</p>
