<p>I'm hoping to go to Gatech for aerospace engineering. It's basically the only school I want to go to because its in state, thus, much cheaper. Any comments are appreciated. And, are there any other schools with AE i might have a chance at?</p>

<p>You're chances are excellent; they are especially inclined to accept in-state students.</p>

<p>This place is cake to get in.....hard to get out :)</p>

<p>Especially if you're AE. I take it you'll be on HOPE too.</p>

<p>yeh ill be on hope for sure :D ..thanks for your comments... anybody else?</p>

<p>If you are in state with new SAT scores-Oct.14. You have a good chance.</p>

<p>Looks pretty good.</p>
