Ummm...Georgia Tech is the number 4 ranked engineering school in the country.  Top 1-5 for every engineering discipline.  [/quote]

Yeah...don't think Georgia Tech can be categorized as falling under the radar in rankings or difficulty getting into. [/quote]
Why not? Its ranked in the 30's overall. [/quote]

Not quite sure why you felt need to throw any shade here. But here are the stats. GT is very well known as difficult. Top 5 Engineering school in the country.  Has always been a extremely hard get, especially out of state at 9% percent overall accept with 6% for engineering. Even overall general admissions for in-state at 30% is more difficult for instate than fellow "Public Ivy" schools like UNC (40% plus in state and UT Austin 45% plus in state) or the other in-state  public school UGA with generally a 42-45% acceptance rate for instate. This is common knowledge.[/quote]
Using public schools is a farce as they limit OOS students. UNC is harder tonget into than Gatech using your metric. [/quote]
