<p>I think you're good.</p>

<p>thx for the help</p>

4

<p>Have you taken any AP's? And FYI, Virginia Tech doesn't read recommendations. It's pure numbers.</p>

5

<p>No however other than my honors classes I take College level english since we have 5 levels of course difficulty in our school (Spec. Ed, Regular, Honors, College, & AP)</p>

6

<p>to OP: you look like a good in. </p>

<p>to Marcusf329: Virginia Tech doesn't read recs? I was pretty sure recs were optional, and that they read them if you send them.</p>

<p>^ An admission officer visited my school and during the presentation he told us they just throw away recommendations. The reason they do so, he said, is because there are way too many applications and people sent too many.</p>

<p>Oh no! I don't look very good based on scores, however I had a great essay and great recommendations. Now im concerned.</p>
