Your chances are not very good to be honest.

Your GPA is something like the 5th percentile and SAT score is around 50th for people admitted last year. According to their criteria, GPA is the single most important factor for admission. Since you mentioned your race, I don’t believe Tech does race-based admissions, though the university is very popular with black students.

I could be wrong though. Despite what I said, the admit rate to GT is about 2 out of 3, but it’s very possible that this number is inflated because it’s a public school. Are you in-state or out of state?
