Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>I am currently a junior and here is a summary of my stats...</p>

<p>GPA- 3.83 weighted</p>

<p>SAT- 2090 (will try again in june after studying)</p>

<p>Extracurricular- 4 years cross country(2 year letter), 4 years basketball(2 year letter), NHS, Texas History Club founder/ vice president, Held a job since sophomore summer, AAU every summer</p>

<p>At this point I think I have about a 40/60 chance of getting accepted, what do you guys think?</p>

2

<p>Could I get into University of British Columbia or University of Miami?</p>

3

<p>I honestly have no clue what my chances are, can anybody help?</p>

4

<p>I am really curious…</p>

5

<p>ranked 149 out of 655, I am taking the SAT again in June and will most likely make a 2150+</p>

<p>Hey, what’s up? I think that your chances are:</p>

<p>British Columbia: I have no clue, sorry
Miami: In
Texas (in-state, I assume): 55% chance</p>

<p>Best of Luck! :slight_smile: Chance me back:

<p>I read that Miami has a 42% acceptance rate and UT has a 51%, do smarter people apply to UT or what?</p>

8

<p>No, that means (at least IMO) that Miami has more stringent admissions (sorry, I didn’t know that), but I think that UT has much more applicants and just lets in more students.</p>

<p>of course u will with that SAT score : )</p>

<p>After all, UT is not a super prestigious university. Don’t worry!</p>

10

<p>I’m changing my opinion, as I have thought about this for a while: If you’re in-state, congratulations…you’re going to be accepted to the University of Texas at Austin-Go Longhorns! :)</p>

11

<p>I just read that 70% of UT freshman were in the top 10% of their graduating classes. </p>

<p>I am hardly in the top quarter…</p>

<p>So where should I apply out of state for the best education possible with my resume?</p>

12

<p>I don’t want an inspiring answer like, keep up the good work, I just konw you will get in! </p>

<p>I just want a realistic calculated opinion on my chances. I will chance you back if you want but I don’t know anything so there is no point.</p>

13

<p>ok come on.</p>

14

<p>You have a better chance of getting into Miami. UT’s acceptance rate is skewed because of the top 10% rule. If you live in Texas and aren’t in the top 10%, then it is very difficult to get into UT.
Your SAT score seems competitive for Miami. I don’t know anything about BC.</p>

15

<p>Texas’ 10% rule clouds the issue. Without it I’d say you’d be in, with it I could only guess.</p>

<p>Miami is the toughest admit on your list, so I’ll say Maybe.</p>

<p>UBC, is probably a yes, if only for the “foreign” student approach, though I know they get a lot of US apps.</p>

<p>You say your GPA is 3.8 weighted, is it closer to 3.2 unweighted?</p>

16

<p>if you either raise your class rank and or SAT score, I’d say you have a good shot at getting in. Be warned though, I’ve seen UT reject some people you wouldn’t expect.</p>

<p>My buddy here at a competitive public school ranked 20% with a 34 ACT score and Varsity Basketball and Cross Country got flat out rejected.</p>

17

<p>Well I am fully expecting to get a 2150+ because my 2090 was with no preparation. </p>

<p>But JuanEatsPandas’ friend has an almost identical resume to mine and he got rejected… Dang, is UT really that great of a school??</p>

18

<p>Just out of curiosity, where did your friend end up going Juan?</p>

19

<p>If you’re instate in public school (top 10%) you’re in. But if not…I’ts been weird this year, my school doesn’t rank so no top 10% and my friend with a 4.2 (out of 4.2) unweighted got capped at UT while he got into Columbia.</p>

20

<p>Since there is a good chance I will get rejected by UT, where else should I apply?</p>

<p>Best schools I can go to with my resume???</p>
