<p>Ok so I visited GT and instantly fell in love so here are the basics:</p>
<p>GPA: 3.7UW, 4.0W
ACT: 30 composite but retaking next weekend Math=28, English=29 have done some test prep
School: High school is top 50 Catholic schools in America so competitive in TN
AP: 4 total after senior year but school only offers a very limited number
Rank: school doesnt rank
ECs: NHS, Mu Alpha Theta, TN Boy's State, All-Region basketball, All-District baseball, French club, over 100 service hours in 4 years, etc...</p>
<p>Couple of questions: Im sending my app before Nov 1 but do i just send my new ACT score when i take the test so they get it in time? The whole crime issue? Does GT not look at the ACT composite?</p>
<p>looks like slight reach.</p>
<p>GT takes your ACT and converts the composite into a total SAT score…they also convert Math and English ACT to Math and Critical Reading SAT…they have a weird system…though it holds validity…basically they want one single number to use to be able to compare their incoming pool of applicants…i would say its a slight reach…mainly because your out of state…and your competing with a smaller pool.</p>
<p>GT does not convert your composite ACT score. They take component parts.</p>
<p>Burdell is right. they record all of your subsection scores…but do not report using science or reading? so it seems as if they dont even consider it? though i wouldnt blow off either of the two…because they MIGHT take it into consideration when comparing two similiar applicants</p>
<p>They take your ACT Math ACT English and ACT English/Writing</p>
<p>If possible…take that ACT again…and improve math significantly…try getting in the 30s minimum…preferably a 32+</p>
