<p>And does anyone wanna help me with my essay? lol</p>
<p>Anyone? Help?
My chances?</p>
<p>and if any alumni or already students at Tech wanna review my essay, plz contact me or post , </p>
<p>much appreciated</p>
<p>Typically people post this stuff in the college-specific forums (see forum list under alphabetical list of colleges).</p>
<p>Since you're from Georgia, I'll say you have a 50% chance. Your GPA is good but your test scores are all 25th %-ile for GT (those 2 are the most important for admissions but being in-state counts for something).</p>
<p>oh, wow well that sucks >.> 50% is less then the average 60% that they have posted on their site.</p>
<p>Will the essay really help me?</p>
<p>I am accepted to G Tech already. Here are my stats if you want to compare.</p>
<p>GPA-4.0 UW
Rank-2/237
APs- All offered except one.
ACT- English 28, Math-34
ECs- Pretty good, 2 leadership positions, many minor participation, babysitting my cousin and working for my parents 30h/w.</p>
<p>Essay- Worst part of my application... It wasn't that bad, but it's no way good.</p>
<p>I guess if your essays is great then it can make up a little for your test scores.
I have no idea how I got in though. I thought the essay would've killed me(began my application few days before it was due)</p>
<p>Your rank and GPA is really good, and i think 34 is pretty REALLY good for act math right?</p>
<p>Yeah since you're accepted, you wanna see if my essay (at least the first paragraph ) is ok?</p>
<p>My ACT is no way good so I think you will do fine since they take over 60% of the applicants and your are in-state which I am not.</p>
<p>I don't think I can help any lol..... I struggled with my essay haha. BTW, I think mine was off topic too???</p>
<p>34 is like 700+ I think??</p>
<p>Hey what do you know, my chemistry grade screwed me too (only B in high school, got 100 in chemistry and 86 in AP.)</p>
<p>anyway I got accepted into tech. 33 English 34 Math (32 composite), very similar rank. I would say you have average chance. Your essay might be the tipping factor. I will look at it if you want me to.</p>
<p>ur in. If not, then ur essay must've been horrible and/or ur SATs being slightly low.</p>
<p>well, 1/4 of the people admitted into Tech has my reading and writing sat scores im in the 50% with math</p>
