<p>Okay so here are my stats, my friends keep telling me that I will get in but I don't know.....</p>

<p>Okay I have a 4.8 out of 6 Weighted GPA (I know it's kind of bad)
My unweighted is 3.2 out of 4.</p>

<p>Me SAT score was </p>

<p>CR-590
Math-620
Writing-610</p>

<p>that was on my second time!</p>

<p>I got into NHS my senior year, I have been in band for four years now, playing the Tuba!
I was in Debate for two years, StuCo for one year, Chess club for two years, and I am currently doing an independent project for the science fair.</p>

<p>My community service adds up to over 200+ hours, as I have been doing church stuff for seven years now, I got almost every weekend.</p>

<p>.....I trust this site and it's members please advise me.</p>

<p>Hi HazerLight.
In order to answer your chances thread I need a few things.</p>

<p>Home State:
Type of School: (parochial, competitive public, 5A Rural, etc.)
Class Rank:
Class Size:
Percentage:
and
Senior Schedule:</p>

<p>Based solely off what I see here I'd say you probably have a 60% chance. But answer those questions and I'll reevaluate.</p>

<p>Also, I am currently a High School senior who lives in Texas, so I'm by no means a definitive answer for you.</p>

<p>I'd say now that you've probably got an 80% chance. You're so close to an automatic admit, is there any way you can retake your SATs to get a 1300?</p>

5

<p>^ Too late for that now. </p>

<p>I'd say 75% chance. Pretty sure you'll get in.</p>

6

<p>Lol, yeah I wish I could take it again!</p>

<p>Well thank you for your inputs!</p>

<p>I am very nervous, I am going to submit my application in two days. I just have to edit my essays and finish the third essay!</p>

7

<p>lol yea me too .. i have similar stats as you and nervous as hellz .. good luck to everyone</p>

8

<p>You've definatly got a good shot. Your ECs are really good, so I think that will carry you in.</p>

<p>DP</p>

9

<p>I would say IN based on class rank and strength of schedule. But im not an admissions counselor.</p>

10

<p>Hey guys!</p>

<p>I also wanted to know if I should write the third essay!</p>

<p>And I also did academic decathlon for two years!
And I made state in National History Day sophomore and junior year.</p>

11

<p>Yes, write the thrid essay. You should do it if you're not automatically in. It shows you're willing to work lol</p>

<p>DP</p>

12

<p>Hey does it matter if I said I would be interested in applying for a Pre-professional program?</p>

<p>Man I am so worried!</p>

13

<p>I'm pretty sure essay C is required for everyone applying to A&M, I may be mistaken though</p>

14

<p>No, essay C is optional. But if you are not an automatic admit, you should consider it mandatory.</p>

15

<p>Yeah, sorry about that, you're right. I was under the impression that it was required when the application directed you to that seperate page with Essay C on it (not the page with all the essays on it but the page after). </p>

<p>If you're planning on writing it, you better get to town on it and definitely don't worry! (It certainly won't help with anything!)</p>

16

<p>Make sure you have killer essays and you should be in
I'm sure you will get into general studies but if your trying for Mays(business), i suggest you try to transfer in after a year in general studies due to the heavy competition this admissions cycle</p>

17

<p>No I am not interested in Business, I put my first major as Biology then the second was general studies!</p>

<p>I talked to some people and they said that getting into the general studies program is not hard, I rally just want to get into A&M then I will see what I want to do! When the application asked me whether I would be doing a pre-professional program I said I would like to do Pre-Med so yeah, I don't know about that but yeah general studies sound good to me.</p>
