What is this all about top 10%?

I’m not a fan of the 10% policy and the specific % policys of the specific schools (business, engineering, communications? etc). It just seems to me there is too much weight on rank and not enough on everything else. It is not reasonable as there is a wide spectrum of caliber of high schools in Texas. And if your not top 10% or 3% for Business and Engieneering, your automatically shoved off into that “other” group of applicants to compete. Every student should be looked at equally without regards to rank.
