68. This probably has to do with their 10% rule.
The top 10% of students in Texas high schools are guaranteed admission to UT and Texas A&M (but this also includes all of their branches and other state schools as well- at least I think that's how it works)., which is a LOT of students if you think about it. Which I think is okay but it also means they reject many otherwise worthy out of state students.

It likely has very little to do with Ava's qualifications.
