<p>Course Load remarks: My SAT grades are not amazing, but then again I was unaware I was even going to take them until I learned I was graduating early. After the 1st test I had decided to get a tutor, thus the second tests grades have increased a little. Sophomore year, I had some problems and was on homebound learning for a while, which would explain the little course load for that year.</p>

<p>You probably have a shot. Your SAT scores are below average for VT, and your GPA is probably right at average if not a little under. What are you planning on majoring in?</p>

3

<p>I am applying for communications.</p>

4

<p>Those SAT scores are pretty low though. And numbers are important for VT admission. Unlike UVA for example where they give importance to essays, ECs, etc.</p>

5

<p>She wants to be a communications major, so I think that you have a good chance of getting to Tech. You can always change your major, I hear kids at Tech do that a lot. If you change your mind when your a junior don't worry only 52% of Tech students graduate in the normal four years of college so you should have plenty of time to make up your mind.</p>

6

<p>i'd say your in about the 25% of applicants so if you have something interesting about you (that stands out cause of so many applications) you might get in but u might want to look into VCU or Radford</p>
