Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hi, I am a junior in high school and I am about to be a senior. I love UT Austin, and want to do civil engineering there. I have a 5.8 weighted gpa (but florida does it weirdly) and a 3.8 unweighted gpa.(unweighed might go down slightly after this semester, but next semester i should get straight A's) I have a 2020 SAT on my first try without serious studying. I think I can bring it up to a 2250 or so. I am ranked 5 out of a class of 455 in a really competitive school.</p>

<p>I didn't try at all freshmen year so my gpa is lower than it should be. I have AP chem, lang, us, Calc ab, and psych this year along with newspaper and physics honors. Next year I have AP physics, Calc BC, stat, lit, Gov/comp, Micro/macro along with newspaper . I didnt study for any of my ap exams, or sat 2 so they are low. I am taking sat 2 for math1, 2, lit, us, chem. I love UT and cockrell and i would love to go there.</p>

<p>You have a very good chance. Luckily in Texas, UT Austin is automatic as long as you are int the 7%. Good Luck!</p>

<p>^Isn’t that only for Texas residents?</p>

4

<p>yes. I meant that^</p>

<p>I thought that was only for Texas Residents. I also was selected from my school to go to Washington DC as a part of the Close Up and Blue Cross Blue Shield social action project. I am also the vice president of my school’s FBLA Chapter.</p>

<p>Is it really top 7% and not top 10%?</p>

<p>As an austinite who has many friends attending UT Austin, I’d say you are a shoe in. I hope you enjoy UT Austin.</p>

<p>Thanks, it is one of my top options because of their engineering and buissness programs.</p>
