Will I be accepted into A&M's Mays Business school?

Question

Hello, I'm a Junior in a recognized public Texas high school. My GPA is currently about a 3.4 on a 5 POINT scale. This puts me in about the top 35% of my class. But, after some gauging, I'm probably going to make a 2000 on the SAT, if not more. Also, I've taken a lot of PreAP and a couple AP classes so far. Got a passing score on one of the [two] AP tests (3). The first time I ever touched a full practice SAT without any prior experience/practice, I was able to get a 1780. I don't have too much extracurricular activities at the moment besides some community service and my involvement in the DECA club/competitions at our school.

I'm hoping to bring my GPA up to a 3.8 by the time I send my app. What are my chances of getting into A&M, particularly the Mays Business school? Also, I'm almost certain I can get into the Bauer College of Business at the University of Houston Main Campus, and if you think I can, what are my chances of getting scholarships there?

Thanks a lot for the feedback!

No chance for TAMU-College Station - sorry.

The U of H B-School is AACSB accredited. You can get an excellent education there.

You have a better chance of scholarships at the private colleges - however, you need actual test scores and not "...probably going to make a 2000 on the SAT, if not more". 
It would be a good idea if you refrained from making any predictions and wait for the real scores.

Just wondering why a 3.8 and 2000 on SAT would not be enough?
