Chances getting into Virginia Tech

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I'm currently a junior and I'm looking at going to Virginia Tech mostly because they're the only school that has anything to do with wildlife and fisheries science in Virginia. I have a 3.9 gpa out of a 4.5. I haven't taken the SATs yet but my psat scores were below average. Im hoping to get at least a 600 in the math and reading.</p>

<p>AP classes- AP world history and AP United States and next year i will be taking three more in physics, calculus, and government.</p>

<p>E.C- 1 year jv and 2years of Varsity Volleyball, 2 years of Varsity basketball, 2 years of Varsity Tennis. I couldn't play my 3rd year of Var. Bball and tennis because i had to get knee surgery after tearing my acl in volleyball
1 year of TSA and im in the student council</p>

<p>Oh i held leadership in Volleyball for all 3 years as Captain</p>

<p>I don't have that much volunteer work , only around 30 hours but i'll probably get more by my senior year</p>

<p>Since the fisheries program is more unique at VT does that improve my chances?</p>

<p>If you get a decent SAT (say, 1850-2000) then I would say you are in.</p>

<p>As long as you aren’t engineering or architecture, you should be fine.</p>

<p>I’m applying to VT later this year also, I would say that as long as you get a 1700 or above on the SAT, you’ll get in.</p>
