What are my chances in GA?

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hello! I am a junior. My weighted gpa is about 3.6-3.7. I took Ap world and stat last year. I am taking Ap us, physics b and comp science. I am planning to take ap econ, cal AB and physics c next year. So what are my chances in georgia? I would like to attend georgia tech. UGA is my second choice. Will colleges like the fact that i am taking hard classes? My friend takes all honors classes and has a 4.0 weighted gpa(no APs). He said colleges like high GPAs more than AP classes(personally i think honors classes are not much different than regular classes). What are my chances? I hope all my hard work won't fail me :(</p>

<p>You stand an alright chance.</p>

<p>DO you think i should take some easy classes next year to boost up my gpa a little?</p>

<p>Colleges certainly look at GPA first, but if you are taking easy classes and have a 3.6-7, you won’t get into schools like GT. Academic rigor is an important component of your overall application, so I’d recommend not taking easy classes.</p>

<p>If your goal is GT, aim for a 2100 on your SAT and a 700+ in Math.</p>

<p>As of now, you look good for both GT and UGA. Keep going and good luck.</p>

<p>Do you live in GA? Either way, I think you’ll be in at both.
At every colllege seminar I’ve been to, they said rigor is more important than getting good grades. They say that they’d rather see a B in an AP than an A in the same subject CP.</p>

<p>B+ in ap is for sure better than A in regular, but i think a B is about the same (from what I’ve heard). If you can get above a B+, I’d do it. The difference between regular and honors depends on your high school.</p>
