No the rule is absolutely amazing. It rewards ppl who work hard in their given situation. The truth of the matter is that it allows alot, ALOT of ppl who would never be able to gather the ECs or even SAT scores neccesary to get into UT otherwise an opportunity to get a world class education. The only ppl who don’t like the rule are the ppl who aren’t in the top ten percent. There are qualifications for college, when we started high school in Texas we knew we had to be in the top ten percent. If you weren’t in that is your fault and no one else’s. This dribble about being qualified is wrong. The point blank is that if there were an SAT cut off for admission and you missed it, then you don’t get in. There was a rank cut off, you missed it you don’t get in. Don’t try to complain bc others worked, hard and did.
