Statistical Analyzer:

Background:

High School

GPA 4.0 (unweighted) SAT 1350 ACT 30, played sports and was in all the clubs

Georgia Tech

GPA 3.8+, cooped 4 semesters, have a job after graduating this past May, was in Band including the marching band that went to Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in 2008.

Academics:

Engineering: Your classes will be difficult but if you stay with the work you'll most likely develop your own system of learning the material. At Tech, the education is grounded on theoretical understanding THEN it's subsequent application (just a word of warning).

Non-Engineering: +If you're female…tends to be a lot of "MRS" Degrees, not saying that's right or wrong but that's the tendency +If you're male…do management because it's gaining in reputation even though the work load is ridiculously less strenuous or challenging.(Hint if you want to go Greek) +We have the largest non-Mandatory co-op program anywhere. Co-oping gives real world experience that is important to young engineers and Tech will HELP set that up for you…if you choose to go that option.

Student Life +General Student Population: Over achiever male (or nerdy female) that now has to cope with being average. Have you seen the show "Big Bang Theory"? Then you've seen the typical Tech student.

Athletics: +WIDE assortment to view and participate in (IM and club sports) +Athletes are cool and approachable (but stay away from the swimmers, the chlorine has made them a little crazy) +Campus Recreation Center is top notch +Don't be surprised when you see foreign students in the library during football games.

Safety: +This IS Atlanta. Campus is relatively safe with police patrols and emergency alert towers but plan accordingly +You WILL find yourself having to travel across campus at the middle of the night. Plan accordingly.

Administration: +Just got a new group in with "Bud" Peterson from Colorado so there's no telling what his future policies will be. +Stange things tend to pop up on campus: Examples include…

Summary

There is no comparison for engineering in the Southeast. The education is difficult but doable if you apply yourself. There's just enough time for the typical student to complete their coursework and participate in one or two extra curricular activities…moral of the story, choose wisely.
