Unless you mention something about weapons, I'd say you're in. Good luck!

Really? The Engineering program at VT is top-ranked, you guys think I'll be good? Thanks alphabeta11, I really want to be a Hokie, CE527M I didn't do great on my SAT.

What makes you guys think I'll be good?

Bump again please, I would appreciate more feedback

CE527M · 10-20-2012, 02:56 PM

I don`t know why alphabeta said that, because I agree, VT is an excellent school, especially for engineering. I think it looks really good, especially in-state and first generation.

Thanks guys, so you guys believe I'll get in rather than get deferred?

Stanfordbound95 · 10-20-2012, 06:22 PM

I think you'll get in. Raise your ACT and youll be a shoe in.

vtfan3 · 10-20-2012, 06:32 PM

I don't have another test date coming up, since they'll be reviewing my app next month

SerenityJade · 10-20-2012, 06:48 PM

You'll likely get in. On the slight chance not ED, you'll get deferred and accepted RD. With applying ED, it'll push you higher because they know that they are the school that you want.

Thanks everyone for your input, I wasn't sure at all before this forum. Anymore opinions would greatly be appreciated!
