Hello. I just found out about these links

https://engineering.tamu.edu/easa/areas/recruitment
https://engineering.tamu.edu/easa/areas/recruitment/admissions

So even if we get admitted to the school, we are still gonna be competing for admissions into engineering? because I don’t think I would survive a hostile review.

I can only afford to apply to a few schools, and I don’t know if I should still apply here. Now I don’t know if I should even try to apply anymore because my goal to was to get Academic Admissions and turn in my application really early to save me a spot in general engineering. But now that I can’t be a real auto-admit I don’t know what to do. My grades aren’t the best, I can’t join any more clubs, or compete in any more contest, or … do anything else to pad my application. Becuase I fall below the stats of the average tamu engineers. So I guess this is my last “chance me” for Texas A & M. Do you guys think I will survive a hostile review?
