Nervous, Average, Anxious Undergrad from GT.. HELP please.

Applying to College
1

<p>First of all, thinking about Graduate school is really making me sick. Reality sinks in slowly.</p>

<p>Anyway, I am here to ask your opinions about all of this! I go to Georgia Tech for B.S in ME. I am planning to apply for admission in the Fall 2012. I will be seeking a M.S.E in ME, as well.</p>

<p>RESUME in summary:

  • GPA : 3.06
  • Dean’s List, Hopefully will reached to a Cum Laude on graduation <em>fingers crossed</em>
  • 2 semesters of 2 different research : 1 research in Summer, and 1 research from Fall
  • 2 internships - Fall and Spring
  • in Greek sorority
  • Female </p>

<p>Schools I wanted to apply:

  1. Georgia Tech
  2. UMich
  3. Cornell
  4. Purdue <em>minimum requirement is 3.4</em>
  5. UIllnois <em>the minimum requirement is 3.5,though</em>
  6. Carnegie
  7. Northwestern
  8. Harvard
    9.UCLA
  9. Columbia University</p>

<p>I will be taking my GRE, soon. Recommendations wouldn’t be too bad to get for me either.</p>

<p>Do you think I will get any chance of going to at least Georgia Tech? I am so in the blues. I knew I should’ve done better, but I changed my major in the first year from IE to ME. I did horrible in IE. </p>

<p>Which schools do you think will be to get into these schools with my stats?</p>

<p>Thanks, and GO JACKETS!</p>

<p>Forgot to mention that I also TA and grade for statics and a student assistant in College of Engineering</p>

<p>You are better served talking to an academic adviser at GT than soliciting input here.</p>

<p>Oh great advice. However, at ME department in GT we only have 1 ADVISOR whom managed all the kids. I did asked her, and all she told me is Google it =(</p>

<p>OK, then since you have done research in two different groups, I would assume that there are a couple of profs that you know well enough to discuss this with.</p>
