You should be fine with ChemE at UT, cant imagine you getting rejected really. (Im a ChemE in cockrell)

Idk about Berkley, its a toss up really… what race/gender are you? (If you dont mind me asking). I knew kids with 2400’s rejected and others with 2100’s accepted, and vice versa of course…

Princeton is going to be a stretch :\ I applied to Princeton for ChemE, it was my #1 school, i got rejected lol. I had a 2370, 800’s on Math two and Chemistry two internships with oil and gas companies throughout highschool, president of key club, etc… But I’m a white male from a well off family though, so it really depends… And to be honest, once you get to UT you’ll love it everyone does, UT was not really towards the top of my list but theres so many opportunities, its ridiculous, tons of jobs and internships, undergrad research oppotrunities, etc…

Anyway i wouldnt worry too much about UT, you should get in, maybe take your SAT one more time. Good luck!
