<p>SAT Score: 1900
670 - CR and Math. 560 in Writing. I am planning on studying and retaking the SAT in October of my senior year.
GPA: 3.5~3.7 (unweighted) Assume lower end of the GPA </p>
<p>I'm a junior currently. I am an Indian (from India) Male. I live in GA.</p>
<p>Sophomore Year: APUSH (4), AP Lang (3)
Junior Year: AP Stat, AP Comp Sci, AP Chem, AP World History (took all exams except chem. I felt like I made at least 4 on the ones I took)
Senior Year: AP Macro, AP Calc AB, AP Calc BC, AP Lit (I plan on taking all the exams)</p>
<p>Extracurricular - National Honor Society, National Foreign Language Honor Society, National Science Honor Society, FBLA, Beta Club, Relay for Life</p>
<p>Achievements - 1st in Regional, 2nd in Sate, going to compete in Nationals. (All for FBLA)</p>
<p>So what are my chances? How important is the essay?</p>
<p>shameless bump.</p>
<p>UPDATE ON GPA - I made all A’s freshman and sophomore year but I messed up junior year and made a few B’s so I think my GPA is around the 3.6ish range unweighted. I will hopefully will make all A’s 1st semester of senior year so my GPA will be pulled into the 3.7-3.8 range unweighted.</p>
<p>shameless bump. I need more opinions please</p>
<p>Another bump! </p>
<p>UPDATE ON COURSE- I got to Columbus High School in GA. (#1 in GA. Rigorous College Preparatory School) so all of my non AP classes are honors.</p>
<p>Also can someone tell me the difference between match and reach? I see high match, low reach, etc throughout the forum.</p>
<p>Safety - pretty much 100% chance of acceptance
Match - solid chance, you are level with accepted baseline
High match - between match and low reach
Low reach - some chance, you are somewhat below accepted baseline
High reach - really no chance</p>
<p>I would say match/high match for GT.</p>
<p>Thanks for your input teenbodybuilder! I appreciate it a lot. I’m really worried about getting accepted into GA Tech because of my SAT score and GPA. Hopefully I’ll pull myself into the 2000+ range in October.</p>
<p>Any input on how important/influential the essay(s) will be is also what I’m looking for. Thanks for anyone else that responds!</p>
<p>another bump! I would love more opinions please!</p>
<p>My Tae Kwon Do classmate got a 2070 and he’s going to GA Tech. He’s a junior.</p>
<p>Idk how but he somehow got accepted Junior year.</p>
<p>Thanks for the input! It does seem strange that he got accepted junior year. Maybe he has enough credits to graduate junior year?</p>
<p>Another bump!</p>
<p>UPDATE ON GPA- I did the math and my junior yr gpa is 3.8 unweighted. I did the math and figured out the worst possible GA Tech GPA (3.906) and the BEST GA Tech GPA (4.0).</p>
