GT Can I get in

<p>Give me an honest opinion and I’ll give you an honest opinion. What are my odds? If you can give me a relative comparison i.e. 7 in 10 you’ll get in. Very likely. etc. Chance4Chance. Thanks.</p>

<p>Your ECs are one-mile-wide, focus-free but I’d say a high match since your math score isn’t exactly up to standards.</p>

<p>I like to do a lot of stuff… History, writing, computers, church, I like it all. And leadership means a lot to me :confused: Hope GT doesn’t see it as one-mile wide but more as diverse interests. But thanks for your input.</p>

<p>I would say you seem to underestimate the importance of focus. Concentrations of math and science are what’s important to get into GT and those scores seem lower (or lacking as in AP scores).
You do have good scores though, and a lot of widely varied EC’s so I would say it’s a high match.</p>

<p>Well I didn’t really know I wanted to be a Comp. Sci major until nearly the end of my junior year. Only then did I begin looking into computer-related ECs and classes. Thanks for your opinion though. It was really helpful.</p>

<p>Bump - Any other opinions out there?</p>
