Texas A&M: To rush or not to rush?

[Just interested]

Yes,you are right. It is my understanding that that is the case at A&M and Texas. I don't know exactly how it works. It is a large part of admissions but not the be all and end all. It is good objective way to start things out similar to 1st cuts for pnms during recruitment being for grades. I have no clue how it works from there. None at all. I do know girls who are not in the top 10% do get into Texas from Dallas.

And for those applicants admitted who did not fall under automatic admission -- the holistic review process used to fill the class:
