ACT for Georgia Tech/University of Michigan

To those that were either accepted or denied at one of these colleges and sent in the ACT, what was your score? I have a 4.0 GPA but I’m not a great test taker - (28 ACT, 11 on essay, 31 if include essay). Really want to go to one of these schools, so appreciate any feedback!

Where is your home state and what is your intended major? In any case, UMich is likely a reach for you as your ACT score is at least a couple points below the 25th percentile of admitted students last year.

For CoE at UMich, the mid 50 ACT for admission had been 31-34 in the last few years. This full admission stat from last year is not out yet, but we know the admission average was 33. ACT 28 is not likely to make it. I do know an in state girl got in a couple years ago with ACT 29 but with very high math section score, but she was from in state with 3.9+ GPA, a female, and with legacy. Otherwise, she would not make it either.
