<p>Wow, your school is brutal. Where do you go to school? Sorry I can’t chance you, haven’t seen enough people with scores and GPA that far apart.</p>

<p>Edit: But as I’m sure you know your scores are well above the average at Tech and they do consider the rigor of your curriculum, so I would imagine you would be good.</p>

<p>Your GPA will not help. Make sure the rest of your application is stellar–spend some time drafting, writing, re-writing. The avg. GPA of admitted students has gone through the roof lately–GT is no longer looking for bright but underperforming students. They’ve shifted to look more for hardworking kids who are also bright. Good luck!</p>
