This is just one parent’s opinion, but it seems to me that Rice puts greatest emphasis upon class rank. ECs are probably second and test scores third. Admissions wants to know that you are near the very top of your local learning environment. Having said that, high class rank usually correlates with high test scores, and to increase your chances you need to buy some test study guides and retake the ACT and/or SAT. You should also be aware that if you rely on a SAT score you will also need to take two SAT2s
