what are my chances in college acceptance? Options

[swishersweet]

I'm a Junior at a public highschool. My gpa on a 4.0 scale is 3.0 and on a 14.0 scale it's 9.8(or close to there); rank 140 out of 500. I'm currently enrolled in 4 pre-ap classes: Pre-AP Algebra2, Pre-AP English 3, Pre-AP Chemistry, and Pre-AP Spanish 3(for distinguished graduation plan); played JV football, JV soccer, Varsity powerlifting, and Varsity wrestling. I have about 10 hours of volunteer at the library and 20hrs for community, so around 30 hours total. I haven't took my SATs yet but plan to register soon for the March date.

My only concern is that I failed my Pre-AP Eng3 class this first grading quarter on report card with a 63. It's the first class I've ever failed, so I was pretty much in shock. I think it will bring my GPA and rank down alot.. but IDK.

But the only college i can think of applying to right now is UT Arlington.
I plan to do a 2+2 program and transfer to a bigger and more prestige university.

Could you suggest any other colleges and tell me my chances of acceptance?

I'm at UT Austin. Depending on what your planning on majoring in, you might want to rethink things. The school is pretty rigourous given that you choose something like pharmacy, engineering, etc. Also tuition rates keep going up so you might want to think about that too. If your doing business it's harder to do an internal transfer so try to get into the business school right away. Don't know if you have any question's just post them.

Stop kidding them, brahski. UT Austin isn't hard undergrad.

Am I the only one who find's this offensive? maybe its just me...

Eat my dick, soulja boy.

I'm assuming he wants to go to Grad School which in pharmacy UT Ranks 4th, Engineering 11th, Law 16th, etc. Now what i'm saying is that if hes going to pay tuition for UT I doubt he wants to go waste it going to some crap grad school. Given those rankings there's a lot of competition so you have to make yourself stand out. Otherwise he'd just go to any of the other school's around that don't cost as much.
