  • SAT II: Haven't taken any, do I need to?
  • ACT: Waiting on my score...
  • 3.9 Unweighted GPA
  • Taken 10 AP Classes
  • Taken 5 PAP Classes
  • Varsity Tennis (captain next year)
  • NHS, NTHS, STUCO
  • BPA (advanced to state for video production)
  • DECA (advanced to state for Entrepreneurship Innovation Plan, hoping to go to nationals)
  • An Independent study class where I'm under the mentorship of a business professional (He went to UT BHP so I know he can write a good rec letter)

See appendix D of this report for an overview of the process.

I think you will have get into McCombs assuming your rank holds. Are you asking about McCombs or BHP? You may have a good shot at BHP as well but that is more holistic and harder to predict.

Whether your race continues to be a factor will be decided by the Supreme Court likely in late June.

You don’t need subject tests for UT. They do offer credit (like AP) for a couple of them.
