[quote=Anonymous]This doesn't directly answer your question, but hopefully it will still be helpful. I have a nephew who much to our shock, did NOT get into Tech Engineering, despite getting into UVA, W&M, and much higher ranked private schools. This kid had over a 4.8 GPA, was 5th in his class, and had a 1440 on the SAT's. He took math through BC Calc, took AP BIO and AP Chem, he did not take physics, because the physics teacher quit the year before and they could not find a replacement. The only reason we could think of for not getting in is that he had absolutely no activities in math/STEM. All of his extra curriculars were in the arts and sports. So yes, I would say that Tech Engineering definitely wants to see a demonstrated interest in math and science. [/quote]
