If you could please chance me. I’m also open to any other suggestions. My major is computer science as of right now.
ACT: 28
English: 29
Math: 31
Reading: 25
science: 25
Superscore is a 29 with the same stats except a 32 in reading.
I’m really worried with my application because my younger years in highschool I was not with a good crowd, so my GPA
was low. I’m finishing my senior year with a 3.2-3.3 GPA (4.0) scale 3.75 weighted. my Senior year GPA is a 3.7 so far… Along with 3 APS (Physics, Statistics, and Government) Dual enrollment Macroeconomics and Fundamentals of Engineering, and Pre calculus. I’m out of state for tech and a Hispanic student (Not sure if that helps but I guess it’s important information). I’ve played soccer for 4 years, hold a part time job, Beta club. I can take the ACT again and I’m sure I could make a higher math score if needed, and I plan to write all 3 essays available in the application. so please tell me what I need to improve on! thank you!
Hello, i am a current VT Engineering Freshman with an intended major in CS, but VT engineers don’t declare until our second year, so I am currently a general engineering major like all freshman. To be honest with you the only thing lacking in your description is your gpa, I suggest you take the SAT, and apply regular decision with that score. Here is a look at my stats from last year if that will help.
