2

<p>VA Tech: Low match
GA Tech: High match</p>

3

<p>What does low/high match mean? and is that for Engineering/Business IT or both?</p>

4

<p>Low match- on the lower end of match</p>

<p>High match- High end, almost safety school material</p>

<p>Retake the SAT.</p>

5

<p>VA Tech-Low match/low reach
GA Tech-Reach</p>

<p>You def would want to take retake the SAT (aim for a 2000+). That would help you so much. As for ECs and GPA you are fine. Just make sure to do well on your SATs.</p>

<p>Since you’re in Virginia, I’d call VT a high match. Get your SAT up, though.</p>

<p>How would Georgia Tech be a high match and Virginia Tech be a low match? Isn’t it harder to get into Georgia Tech?</p>
