Chances of Texas A&M/Baylor 2010 fall Freshman Business Major acceptance?

I definitely think you got a shot at Baylor, as it is really easy for anyone to get accepted. A&M will be more challenging, as its admissions has become increasingly more competitive over the past few years. I got friends with much better stats than yours, and are scared that they won't get into A&M (Both applying to Mays Business): one friend is the cl president, has a SAT of 1870 (1270 composite, only 30 points short of automatic admission), Top 14% of our cl, is in NHS, National Spanish Honor Society, works 32 hrs/week, lots and lots of other minor clubs and has several more leadership positions for his church, and over 200 community service hours. My other friend's stats are less impressive. Top 31%, SAT of 1870 (composite of 1240), lots of minor clubs, about 200 hours of community service also. They are scared they won't make it into the actual school, not just Mays school of business. See here's the thing, the two colleges that fill up the fastest are the Business school and the Engineering School, and these are mostly reserved for automatic admits. I think you got a shot at the A&M, but I honestly don't think you have any shot at Mays, sorry I'm just being honest. Apply anyways, and we'll see what happens.
