<p>SAT: 550CR 700 M 650 W
Mostly AP and Honor Classes
3.7 as of right now.</p>

<p>English as a second language.</p>

<p>Senior Year AP: Cal Chem Lit Econ and Psychology</p>

<p>EC: TSA 3 years and 50 hours of community service</p>

<p>This is for a friend.</p>

<p>I’m no expert but I think he may need to bring his SAT score up a bit. I suppose the math is OK but the CR is really low</p>

<p>The GPA could maybe use a small boost, but I think it’s acceptable.</p>

<p>Aaaand as for ECs…is that all he’s done? GT has a whole section on ECs and leadership so he may want to join a few other things his senior year.</p>

<p>Overall, I’d say slight reach.</p>

<p>Well our school math coach said that Tech counts Math vs Cr as a ratio of 5 to 1…so basically they take the math score and x it by 5 and CR x 1. It was kinda confusing, but I just want to make sure or if anyone have any other suggestion.</p>

<p>Well, never heard 5x. I know at one time, Tech used formula 2x SAT math + SAT verb + GPA, but never 5x. No sure Tech is still use that.</p>

<p>that was from a decade or two ago… don’t think that is used anymore. the new SAT writing <em>is</em> used, so that old formula doesn’t even include that. </p>

<p>Are you in-state or out-of-state?</p>

<p>Tech was a hot school last year, with apps up 10+% over the year before. With the girl/guy ratio improving to 33% for the freshmen, an awesome football team and a basketball team with 5-6 great recruits, including #1 Derrick Favors, it’s likely that applications will go up again. So, who knows what your chances really are! Depends on who else applies…</p>

<p>He is an instate student .</p>

<p>I thought Tech does not look at the witting part of the new SAT.</p>
