What is your unweighted GPA

Give yourself a 4 for an A

3 for a B

2 for a C

Texas weightings are “high” (like on a 6 scale) so it’s hard to tell where you are.

Your math is on the lower end.

Let me know.

Thanks

my school does not calculate unweigthed so it isnt submitted anywhere

They don’t but you can.

Give yourself a 4 for each A, 3 for each B, 2 for each h C. Divide by # of classes.
Don’t include PE.

It’s impossible to chance otherwise.

Ok, I have a 3.83

I’m guessing you’ll get in but the SAT is worrisome - so you could be offered Blinn or an alternative campus.

Let’s say 50/50. Your rank is also low but 91% are in the top quarter - and you are (barely) - so good luck.

I’d add a Tech or another just in case.

Good luck.

You GPA is good. Your class rank, while not auto admit, should be ok for your major. Test score is below average…I think A&M is test optional? If you confirm that’s true I would suggest you apply test optional and I would think you have a reasonably good chance.
