<p>Lol, you should definitely get into Georgia Tech. I’m not saying 100% because nothing is guaranteed, but you are a very strong applicant. I’m not too familiar with UVA, but it seems like you should fit their profile.</p>

<p>I’m OOS…</p>

<p>Doesn’t matter. Your scores are good enough to make up for that. If you were on the edge for stats, then I would say OOS would hurt. Lol do you think you would need a 36 to get in OOS? Plus, your composite is misleading because your science and reading are lower than your math, english, and english combined writing and they only look at the latter three(for GA-Tech). You should definitely apply, and I’m sure you’d get in.</p>
