<p>Well that's pretty much it. I do hope my low SATs get overlooked. I'm hoping. Please be honest. I need to get into atleast into one of my choices. PLEASE CHANCE. I'm so nervous. ASAP.</p>

<p>I will be blunt. High Reach. 1780. Sorry mate. My friend got deferred at UGA EA with a 1800, 3.5 GPA. </p>

<p>GPA and SAT is what GAtech looks at.</p>

<p>Hi i too am an indian and applying to ga tech same as you…</p>

<p>To be clear as told above ga tech doesn’t look much towards ur EC’s ( a little not not at all) and with 1700’s it seems a little difficult, just try to bump that up to 1900’s and you will be fine.</p>
