Hey quick question about the essays. When you say the prompt is "an invitation to write," what do you really mean by that? Personally, I am struggling understanding the importance of the prompt and if generally relating my essay to it is acceptable. I want to make the question my own; however, I am worried about straying too far from the prompt. In other words, could you help define the line between making the prompt my own and straying to far from it? Thank you, Shane

Although some schools are not requiring this year's applicants to submit a GMAT score, folks should keep in mind that if you're a strong test-taker, you could arguably be at a little bit of an advantage over other applicants if you do take the GMAT and submit a score that is above the school's median score for last year's admitted class.

So what if your school doesn’t offer ap micro or macro. There is a elective economics class in my school but it is known around campus as a bs class that u don’t even learn in. I will however be self studying micro and macro senior year,which obviously means I can’t send in my ap test scores. Any thoughts?

How impressive of a resume would a student ranked in the 20th percentile with an ACT of 33 need to have to be considered a competitive applicant for any major within McCombs? (In-state) Thank you, Shane

Ty Tipton no but is it

[@hymanye6243]

I had a 4.3-4.4 gpa when I applied to the school and I got in!!! U can def get in if ur top 6% and in a Texas High School. Kinda difficult being OOS tho.

[@arcisvar4863]

@@hymanye6243 4.4 out of 5 ? I am 4.5 but nowhere near my top 10 but we don't rank so idk.

[@hymanye6243]

@@arcisvar4863 yeah it depends on the competitiveness of your school. I went to a very competitive school so GPAs were generally lower.

[@arcisvar4863]

@@hymanye6243 my school is very competitive but doesn't rank because it was hurting like a majority of the students only the 6% get there rank. I have like 4 average actives, have taken 9 ap classes, 2 college courses and have 3.68/ 3.7 unweighted GPA and 4.4 weighted GPA. Can you say there are other students at McCombs with similar profiles or were they all like much better. I am applying this year and I m so stressed omg
