@ hookem and qwerty
My brother is going to do Plan II (not val haha) and Business Honors at UT Austin =).
And my school- everyone who deserves to be in the top ten pretty much is in the top ten since we have about 1000 people in our class.
But I see your point, especially since more and more people are trying to go to UT because of financial situations and so a lot of the spots are taken, leaving almost none for the 11%/12% etc in a good school.
But it really isn’t the ‘only’ choice for those kids and I’m probably going to find a safety other than UT just because if I don’t get into Plan II (yeah, another one of those) than it’s just a completely different school than I would want.
