I am currently going into my Junior year of high school. Black female. I haven’t figured my unweighted GPA from my sophomore year but my unweighted GPA from freshmen year is 3.88, and the sophomore one should be pretty similar. I am on the volleyball team, a cheerleader, apart of the Theater program, Student Council Correspondant, VP of a small program at the local Urban League (we do fundraisers and stuff), I play the Clarinet in the band, and I will soon be a member of National Honor Society. If I get a good score on my SATs, do I have a chance of getting into GIT? Should I add more clubs? I’m really busy as is but if it means
getting into Georgia Tech, I’ll do it. I will be taking AP English this year and
Honors Pre-Calculus.
Hey! I was a Georgia Tech acceptee this year. I wouldn’t recommend you add more clubs unless you are passionate about them. The quality of your commitment is definitely more important than the quantity of extracurriculars. You seem to be on a great track as it is. Be sure to look out in the Summer for the common app essay prompts on the GT website. They usually post them in late June/July. I also highly encourage you to apply EA. Aside from that just wok on getting stellar SAT/ACT scores. Hope I could help!
