<p>Believe it or not, Georgia Tech used to require 5 SAT II tests of home school applicants. They’ve never required SAT IIs (now Subject Tests) of other applicants. This at a school that accepts about 70% of applicants.
I think they likely have received complaints and now believe they are being more reasonable.
While the tone still doeesn’t feel friendly, I don’t think it is very difficult to meet their stated requirements.
I wouldn’t feel intimidated. They likely have had some positive experiences with home school students by now.</p>
