<p>Hi, I'm from a smaller town, but somewhat large school in the middle of nowhere in Georgia. It was impossible for me to take AP classes until junior year, as my school is set up. Also, not as many AP's available as many of you i've seen. I hope to major in Psychology or Aerospace Engineering.</p>

<p>My GPA is about a 3.85 weighted..unsure nonweighted.
My 1st SAT scores are : 610 M / 500 CR / 510 W (plan to retake at least 2 more times)
My ACT score is a 24 composite (26 english, 27 math, 20 reading, 23 science, 24 comp, 23 writing)
I am in the top 25% of my 465 class </p>

<p>Bergoo,
As a mom of twins who are rising seniors ( we live in Atlanta area), have you already contacted GaTech's admission office? I think all of your test scores are low for Tech- you have to get your math score up! YOur scores are in range, I believe for Auburn, and they have rolling admissions. See if you can plan to come to Tech to tour and spend the day- meet with an adcom, etc.</p>

<p>As for Florida, it was one of the most competitive public universities in the country- there are many posts on CC - check them out. It is my understanding that OOS must have a minimum of 1300 M+CR plus excellent GPA, EC's etc. to be considered. </p>

<p>work on scores for Tech and UGA, and contact Auburn now- good luck in all of your endeavors this year!</p>
