This document (at the end) outlines how UT admits. See the formulas at the end. I’d say your odds are bad given your rank but a lot of things could help you that you might not have listed here.

Read about CAP because you will at least get CAP. Decide if it is something you’d try.

Take a look at A&M academic admit, too.

@gettingschooled Thank you so much! I am definitely applying to A&M as well, I think I would have a better chance at getting in there as well. And thank you for the link to the article. I tried calculating my freshman GPA from the calculator, but it comes out as much larger than 4.0. :frowning:
