[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good luck.  Va tech was crazy unpredictable for admissions last year.  I’m not sure if my 4.0 unweighted student with 1400 sat will be accepted.  We are in state from a very successful high school which may be held against us.[/quote]

If you're not applying for Engineering, you are fine.  For all the hype/paranoia, VT had still had a 70% admittance rate last year.  It's predicted to be a 64% admissions rate this year, but that's still very high and your kid is well above their mean GPA and SAT.  Everyone had stories of somebody's friend who didn't get in with x or y, but every kid I knew directly who had decent GPA/scores got in--and we're one of the competitive high schools.  VT runs it pretty much by the overall numbers and is less concerned about class rank than UVA or W&M.

Engineering is more unpredictable.[/quote]

People who applied early action got in mostly. Tech says to apply EA and not do RD since they fill most seats in EA. All kids I know who didn’t get in applied RD. [/quote]
