SAT 1210,Nov 09 2015Electrical Engineering
SAT 1210, In 1979 this school accepted good ole boys like my roommate who was undecided engineering, he should not have been admitted. He had not had calculus, not had trig. He was taking pre trig. He eventually dropped out after trying to sabotage me in many ways and take me with him. He did though, get a high pay computer job because he was good ole boy, without deserving it. I on other hand graduated and received not one interview or job offer. After 10 years of nothing I left Georgia for Ohio where I worked my way into engineering, no thanks to Tech. Tech is a racist hell hole.
SAT: 1210 Male
I didn't do much to get in, I wroteNov 13 2002Aerospace Engineering
I didn't do much to get in, I wrote my essay in thirty minutes and didn't give it a second look. No interview required, which could be good or bad, depending on what type of person you are. Test scores mean a lot to the reviewers (in my opinion, due to the lack of interview and single essay)
My recommendations: take the hardest possible classes in high school, do well in them, and do well on your standardized tests (and if you don't take them again)
ACT: 30 SAT: 1600 Female
