<p>Hi I just received a new transcript from my school so i just want to do another chance me thread to see where I stand.
The schools I want to get into

GerogiaTech:
VirginiaTech:</p>

GPA(weighted):4.04

<p>I really take the hardest classes available at my school by the end of Highschool I will have taken the following 11 AP's: ap world,ap bio,ap calc ab,ap calc bc,ap physics c E and M,apush,ap lang,ap lit,ap comp sci,ap phschyology,and ap gov't.</p>

<p>Before I was eligible for AP I took all honors. I've never really been the kind of student who carefully selected the easiest classes and Ap's so I could have have a 4.5 GPA. I kinda like to learn hard stuff even if I do suck at it. But I feel this is going to work against me when I apply for college as I don't think they will take my schedule rigor to seriously and prefer someone who took 3 or 4 AP's and has a 4.3 gpa.</p>

<p>bumpppppppppp</p>

<p>Do you know your unweighted GPA?</p>

4

<p>around a 3.6? I live in Northern VA so the schools are really strict here and I’ve never taken any class below honors</p>

5

<p>Okay then I honestly believe you should have no problem at all three of these schools. You’ll get in Virginia tech without a problem, and due to your pretty high sat scores and decent grades you shouldn’t have a problem getting into Georgia tech or UVA. Good luck!</p>

<p>i can only comment on Georgia Tech. My nephew got similar stats (higher SAT) but he was admitted by the school. (He is a resident of California)</p>

7

<p>Oh ok thanks guys anymore opinions? What can I do to improve l</p>

<p>With that SAT score and rigor of schedule, I think Virginia Tech will practically be begging for you to come. I think you can also get into Georgia Tech and UVA. To improve your chances, try to raise your GPA (both weighted and unweighted) a little bit. It’s not that your GPA is bad, it’s just that a higher GPA will always be helpful. Also, have you considered taking the ACT? Another strong standardized test score to supplement your 2100 could really optimize your chances.</p>

<p>Bumpppppppp</p>

10

<p>UVA: High match
VA Tech: Low match (VA Tech works on the 1600 scale; you just can’t get below 1300 CR+M)
GA Tech: Match</p>

11

<p>Is UVA really that hard to get into with my stats?</p>

12

<p>For the E school at UVA, yes. I had some classmates with similar in state stats get deferred/denied from the E school. You have a good chance but it’s not a given</p>

13

<p>Northern VA is a tougher region as far as UVA is concerned… almost as tough as for OOS applicants.</p>

14

<p>Georgia Tech accepts 54% of applicants. Virginia Tech has a 66.5% acceptance rate. UVA is at 32%. You’ll get in to at least two out of the three.</p>

<p>Ok wow so I’m probably In at georgiatech</p>
