Chance a cooked GPA for top schools (Business/Econ) [TX resident, 3.86 GPA, not top 10%, 1550 SAT super score]

This might be true, but it doesn’t mean they will offer you a job. It’s sort of like secondaries to medical school applicants. Everyone gets them…sort of meaningless in the big context.

I agree, SMU and Indiana are good choices and if you like those, that’s great! W and L has increasingly become noted for its fine graduates into the business/finance fields.

Your reaches are…reaches….but if you have the time and you want to apply…AND you are happy to attend your sure things for admission…go for it.
