I bet 36,000 of those applications were men and women who look like men.

Does A&M still do the top 10 percent rule? I think tu does 8 percent now.

Yes we're still subject to the retarded top 10 rule. This year may be top 8 depending on numbers.

I'm not gonna complain. It got my dumbass in and it allowed me to give two shits about my test scores.

Yeah I've read a couple times where athletic success leads to a boost in applications.

Pretty amazing how much one year in the SEC has helped A&M in a lot of different areas. Even institutional pride. Not saying A&M didn't have it before, but getting away from the Horns and Big 12 seems to have done wonders for the Ags.

Yes. I probably wouldn't be accepted into A&M today given my test scores.

Plus, I had no safety school since A&M was the only school in which I had applied.
Many deserving applicants will be forced to go elsewhere. Fap. Fap. Fap. Fap.

I've said this a lot, but the SEC move is the best move the university has made since allowing women to enroll.
