You have a shot....but they are really unpredictable!

You lost points with me on "superawesome"......:laugh:
 
Hi lazylarry,

I think I know you in real life. Your stats are good for most oos, but hard for top tier schools. Just apply early, broadly, and superawesomely.

What's so bad about TX? For us, its easier to get in instate and a lot cheaper, and we got Baylor and UTSW. Heck, I'll be happy if I can get into UTMB.

Bye lazylarry

You have good stats but they're pretty so-so for top tier schools. I second the poster above me. In-state should be your first shot. You didn't specify your particular ECs or research experience enough for me to really try to determine your superawesomeness, so I'd say that you have a shot but not a huge one unless you've saved some small African country somewhere.
 
If you are truly superawesome you'll get in wherever you apply, and they'll offer you a full-ride merit scholarship to encourage your matriculation to their school.
