Chances at Tech from OOS

Colleges and Universities A-Z Georgia Institute of Technology

<p>Hi, can anyone evaluate my chances at tech so far, and maybe give me a few things I should work on to make myself a lock for this school?</p>

<p>Here are my stats:
*I am an Asian Indian Male
*From a competitive public high school in Oregon, Beaverton High School, which was also rated the best AP school in Oregon, so yeah, its a smart school.
*student body at school = 500+</p>

<p>The Numbers/ECs
*Freshman year:
4.0 with honors in 2 classes for both semesters</p>

<p>*Sophomore Year:
3.8125 overall for both semesters
(Bs in AP Chem 1st sem, Precalc 2nd sem, Social Studies 1st sem)</p>

<p>*Junior Year (projected)
Human Anat/Phys-A,A
IB Bio HL 1-A,A
Spanish 3-A,A
IB Calculus-A, A (might be at worst 1 "B")
IB Psychology-A,A
Team Sports-A
IB English-B,B (might get 1 A)
IB Tok 1-B</p>

<p>IN SUMMARY: I should finish high school with at the very very worst a 3.67 or 3.7 UW GPA, but I'll do what ever I can to prevent that from happening.</p>

<p>*class rank UW right now = 38/515. Weighted = 30/515 (will go up because not many kids have taken hard classes yet)
*IB Diploma Candidate (to be)
*Varsity tennis 4 years (will have 4)
*Science Team 4 years (will have 4)
*World Quest Trivia 4 years (will have 4)
*Science Club Treasurer (1 year)
*Science Club VP (2 years)
*Math Club VP (2 years)
*Portland Youth Philharmonic (will have 3 years)
*Mathfest Algebra 2 1st place freshman year
*OIMT Participant Fresh Year
*Mathfest Participant (will have 4 years)
*Oregon Museum of Science and Industry Rising Star Program (will have 150-175 volunteer hours done)
*Mathcounts Tutor (about 50+ volunteer hours)
*Right now I get about a 1920-2050 on the SAT, 26-30 on ACT according to Practice Tests for SAT, and the PLAN (it's like the PSAT for SAT except the ACT version) on ACT, but I'm shooting for at least a 2100 on the SAT and 32 on the ACT</p>

<p>I think you have a chance, based on what you say about yourself and EC, stats. Apply and visit school. If you get SAT up a little as you said at least 2100 on the SAT and 32 on the ACT. You have a decent shot.</p>

<p>Freshman Class Profile Fall 2005; Average High School GPA: 3.74
SAT I Scores Range (25th-75th) of SAT<br>
Verbal: 600-700
Math: 650-740

<p>Comparable ranges (25th-75th) ACT<br>
ACT-English: 26-31<br>
ACT-Math: 29-33</p>

<p>Heyy! I have a similar question. If I have stats that are extremely similar to california_luv8's, but I'm lacking the extensive extracurricular stuff that he has, would I still have a chance at Tech?? I'm in state by the way. I don't know if that makes a diff at all. Thanks in advance! :)</p>
