<p>I just got waitlisted... </p>
<p>Do any of you guys know how many people they put on waitlist and how many they eventually accept them? What's the general percentage like? Any idea?</p>

<p>“Last year 978 were offered a place on the wait list, 650 accepted the placement, and 43 ended up being accepted…so about 7% which is pretty terrible.

<p>Hey! I’m from India. I got wait listed too. Can you write your qualifications here so that we know what kind of people are there on the wait list?</p>
<p>Yes, everyone who got wait listed, let’s post stats to see our qualifications!</p>
<p>SAT: 1980 (800 math, 570 reading, 610 writing)
GPA: Around 3.7 in GT’s calculation
Took 4 AP’s before senior year, 9 AP’s including senior year
Decent Extracurricular…</p>
<p>Waitlisted as well. </p>

Not many ECs, only major one being 4 years of FIRST Robotics.</p>
<p>Joining you guys on the waitlist. I’m surprised though I didn’t get outright rejected.</p>
<p>GPA: About 3.7 using GT’s calculation
SAT: 710 writing, 750 math, 760 writing (2220 total)
SAT II: 800 Chem, 800 Math II, 760 World History
APs: AP US (took the test but not the class), AP Bio, 5’s on both, and currently taking Physics C E&M, BC Calc, and Comparative Government.
Lots of ECs (FIRST robotics, science team, newspaper photographer)
Essays weren’t that great</p>
<p>I too got wait listed. Can’t say I’m too disappointed because my senior year so far has been very weak.</p>
<p>GPA: 3.4 UW (off my transcript)

Taking all IB classes Junior and Senior year
ECs: President of 2 clubs, leadership position in 2 others, robotics, 2 instruments+ some volunteering. no amazing prizes/awards though
Essays were alright, but kinda rushed.</p>
<p>GPA - 3.7 approx
SAT - M 750 W 750 CR 630 (2130)
EC - A lot of different things, but the most important one is music. Nothing that special in the science and technology field though.
I think my essays weren’t outstanding. Wrote them 1 hour before the deadline. Moreover, I sent my SAT 2 marks to Georgia by mistake, even when they didn’t require them. And this is one of the main reasons they wait listed me (as per what I believe) as my Math level 2 scores suck. In chemistry, I got 780, but math was below 700, so this might have looked bad on my app.
Which others colleges have you guys been accepted to?</p>
<p>I was waitlisted as well. Too lazy to post my stats, achievements, and extracurriculars. I was deferred EA.</p>
<p>I also got waitlisted. Will you guys send love letters to GT?</p>
<p>lol janeshi what are love letters?</p>
<p>bump bump bump</p>
<p>I got waitlisted too and would love if someone could inform me as to what I am doing wrong.</p>
<p>36 composite ACT
2230 combined SAT
4s & 5s on junior year AP tests
all AP courses senior year, all As
4 years of Vex robotics</p>
<p>The only thing I can think of would be my 3.65 overall GPA due to weak Freshman & Sophomore years</p>
<p>Guys it’s most likely an out of state thing for a lot of us. They have to meet a quota as a state school. </p>

<p>ACT: 34 composite, 35 math, 34 english, 33 writing
GPA: ~3.8ish by there calculations
I thought my essays were pretty
ECs: track and cross country, AIME qualifier, engineering club founder, volunteering, FBLA state competitor, maybe some other small things
I guess my GPA wasnt good enough and I was out of state, but i thought i would get in.</p>
<p>I am on waitlist if my application says waitlist right?</p>
<p>i mean wait list offered. I decided to resubmit the waitlist confirmation and decision hasnt changed so i guess wait list offered means i am on official waitlist right?</p>
<p>Do any of you guys know if they re-evaluate wait-listed applications as if they are new to them? (like re-read our essays and extracurricular activities)</p>
<p>That’s a good question. I wonder if that is so. I’ve been deferred EA and waitlisted RD. kinda disappointing.</p>
<p>I’m sorry to hear that Haphazard! Several more weeks…! Fingers crossed haha…</p>
<p>And does anyone know the answer to my question? ^</p>
