I am currently going into my Junior year of high school. Black female. I haven’t figured my unweighted GPA from my sophomore year but my unweighted GPA from freshmen year is 3.88, and the sophomore one should be pretty similar. I am on the volleyball team, a cheerleader, apart of the Theater program, Student Council Correspondant, VP of a small program at the local Urban League, I play the Clarinet in the band, I’m considering joining my schools ACTION Club (they do fundraiser) and I will soon be a member of National Honor Society. If I get a good score on my SATs, do I have a chance of getting into GIT? Should I add more clubs? I’m really busy as is but if it means getting into Georgia Tech, I’ll do it. I will be taking AP English this year and Honors Pre-Calculus.
Adding more clubs isn’t always the answer. Try to focus your EC’s on your intended major (intern at a local engineering firm, start some sort of engineering club, etc.). As far as your current application is concerned, the GPA isn’t bad. Yes, you will need to get a high SAT score to have a chance… maybe 2000-2200. Without SAT/ACT scores and/or AP scores, I can’t really give you an accurate chance.
