Chances?

<p>I live in Virginia </p>

<p>Main SAT score is 1286/1600 (1930/2400) (640M, 630CR, 660W)
took 3 SAT II Subject Tests (Math 1: 690, Math 2: 690 US History: 660)</p>

<p>my gpa is pretty low because i slacked off my freshmen year, only a 3.5. However, ive taken all honors and AP classes throughout highschool with an increasing gpa each year (9th: 3.1 10th: 3.6 11th: 4.1). AP chem and calc senior year. I'm hoping to compensate for my low gpa with a bunch of extracurriculars. </p>

<p>Ive been playing 2 sports, lacrosse and track, both for 3 years now and made varsity lacrosse in 10th and lettered in track in 11th. Im also on my schools competitive science team that won states last year. I went to Harvard Summer School for the past two summers to take some intense classes (first summer I took a math course, second summer i took computer programming course). I have about 80 volunteer hours at my local YMCA and just came back from a week long mission trip fixing houses in WV. Ive been in various clubs, as well as helped to establish/run one.</p>

<p>I applied middle october (nervous as crap about getting the decision)</p>

<p>You have better credentials than I do and I got in. I got my letter in approx. two weeks, I got lucky I guess. I think you are in, personally. Looking at your name though, Hokie365? Are you applying to tech as well? That is my first choice.</p>

<p>I actually live in blacksburg, virginia (where tech is located) and am going down to the ACC championship game against BC this friday haha. But yea, for people who live in blacksburg, tech does this thing called the "on-site" application. Basically we take our application to them and we find out the decision on that day. My class at Blacksburg High has close to 300 and maybe a little less than half get admitted. I saw your acceptance post and saw your credentials and I can tell you that you are basically in at VT. I've lived in blacksburg for about 5 years now so if you want to know anything about admission, campus/town life, and other things about the college feel free to private message me.</p>

<p>I have been down quite a few times as I have a lot of friends and family friends who go there/teach there. Do you know if it is possible for me to drive down and do the whole on site application thing even though I don't go to Blacksburg High? I just want to know! lol, I sat in your school's parking lot over the summer to watch 4th of July fireworks.</p>

<p>Did you happen to get into tech yet? Are you even trying? haha</p>

<p>I wish I could go to the ACC championship game, that would be so sweet; you are lucky! Hope you have a good time, I will be watching it intently from my couch.</p>
