Depends on how good of a school you go to becuase of the class rank. I would say you have a 60% chance of getting in because of your act score. Have you taken the sat? Make sure you do all the extra stuff on the app (essay c, extended resume etc..), and I think you have a decent shot at getting in.

I would say that i go to a very good school, definitely known by UT, we probably send ~50 kids there a year
