Hey everyone
As you may know, Georgia Tech releases its Regular Decisions about 45 minutes from now. Some of you may not care because it may just be a backup school, while some of you are still waiting on your first admit.

My attempt to get something going has failed, just like all my attempts to get something going in life.
Maybe banter, or maybe why I can’t get any acceptances

I got an email saying congrats after I checked the portal…you’ll probably get that @hockeymom2000

Wow @jeremy_chort. Classy move, blaming it on affirmative action when GT is over 50% white. That’s way easier than actually considering the fact that you might just not have been good enough.

Do female computer science applicant get any boost in admission? If the female candidate has very high unweighted GPA above 3.95 and courses like like Multi variable calculus, AP Physics C, AP Chem, AP Bio, AP US History, AP language etc. in high school?
