<p>Texas is a bit of a reach for you, but its can happen.</p>

3

<p>No chance. Sorry.</p>

4

<p>I think your rank will sink you, sorry. It sounds like a very rigorous school, but unfortunately, UT tend to look at how well you did in relation to others with the same opportunities.</p>

5

<p>Do you know how other students from your school have done at UT with relatively similar statistics? Your school counselor should be able to give you some idea.</p>

6

<p>You should be offered CAPs.</p>

7

<p>very slim.
work ur ass out and u may just get in.</p>

8

<p>Admission to UT is based on your standing/GPA at end of Junior year.</p>

9

<p>The GPA and Class Rank will probably hurt you alot.</p>

10

<p>Your rank matters much more than anything to UT. I would say you have almost no chance with the top 8% law. However, by some miracle you might be one of those people accepted with a lower rank. Sorry for the bad news.</p>

11

<p>sorry about that typo above, what did you get on the SAT/ACT?</p>

12

<p>I hate to bring you down but I doubt you can get into UT. If I were you, go to the school that accepts you (if you get into your major). Wow, 60 credit hours, damn what school is this?!?!</p>

13

<p>Well I was thinking of dropping the early college high school and transferring to my local high school. Allowing me to be in a less competitive school, and be in the top 10 %. I have not received my SAT scores but I doubt that would be much help.</p>

14

<p>you could always do the CAP thing, it might be a bit tricky since you already have 60 hours</p>

15

<p>CAP wouldn’t be smart with 60 hours. By the time he reached Austin he would have 90 hours, but still 2 years ahead of him because of the 60 hour rule. If you don’t get into UT, you’re better off going to a school you do get into and then attend UT for graduate school.</p>

16

<p>or you could do summer school at ACC, get a 4.0 GPA and transfer to UT, you should apply to some safe schools for fall in case you can’t transfer then you just attend your safe option.</p>
