i got in this year and had a few questions about the confirmation process

LOL i just had my interview

cold lantern
#

how did it go?

#

i should probably do mine today

frank oyster
#

It was actually okay

#

Couldve been better but the questions werent tat crazy

#

Only one caught me off guard at the end but it was bc i already talked abt the thing i wouldve talked abt

cold lantern
#

i feel like i've prepped enough for other interviews that i shouldnt prep too much for this so i might just do it lol

#

but also this is higher stakes

frank oyster
#

I was getting burnt out from practicing for so long and wanted to stop but i kept thinking abt the stakes

#

😭

cold lantern
#

how long was the whole thing for u

#

was it actually 30-60 min

#

it feels like it should be shorter

frank oyster
#

I think it was shorter

cold lantern
#

ooh alr

#

i’ll probably do it today

frank oyster
#

Good luck!

On the deferred supplemental form, are you guys using a traditional letter format, with like Dear… Sincerely, …”. Or are you keeping it brief with just important info.

yall when does deferred come out

Is there a disc for fellow admits?

I already forgot the questions

#

I had an interesting chat with a parent. Last year, her kid got into both Tech (in-state) and UF (oos) for CS. Chose UF for a better college experience. They don't regret the decision.

#

I (FL resident) would select the opposite. Go to Tech (oos) instead of UF (in-state)

slow crow
#

Honestly whatever choice they make can’t be that bad

#

CS job market at tech is really bad, career fair this fall was over 3 hours to just GET INTO THE BUILDING and registration is dogshit

#

Ofc engineering is on top 💪💪

pliant isle
wide sage
slow crow
#

It’s bc first years think they have an opportunity for internships and ruin it for older ppl

slow crow
wide sage
# slow crow Yes

I thought tech would have like more opportunities is it better if i go like umich or texas or smth maybe theres less engineering/cs kids there

slow crow
#

It’s cooked everywhere

#

I will say tho the job market for my major is pretty good

#

The harder ur major is (EE, CompE, ChemE, Petroleum, Nuclear) the better job security and $$$ you will get

#

If you like computing and hardware, do compe, if you like E&M physics, EE is a good pick, if you like calculus and chem, ChemE is a great pick

#

People will say to do what ur heart desires but in five six years when you don’t have to deal with academic stress you’re gonna want a diploma attached to a good school and a good major (that fits your interests mildly)

hollow dagger
#

engineering > cs because if you really want to work a cs job eventually you can easily do that with most engineering or math/physics majors

frosty egret
slow crow
#

Even though chem e kinda is tough I’m really liking it so far

#

@frosty egret what did u get on physics test 1?

frosty egret
#

I almost switched over the summer but I was hesitant but now I better switch before I keep regretting lol

#

I got 84

slow crow
#

Nice!

#

I got a 67

#

😭

frosty egret
slow crow
#

I did better than I thought I did lowkey

frosty egret
#

Bro idk how I got my points

#

Can u regrade anything

slow crow
#

I mean

#

What am I supposed to regrade 😭

#

The questions I got wrong I literally wrote nothing

frosty egret
#

Oh

slow crow
#

And for the gravity one I got 10/20 even though I guessed problems b and c

#

So like the parts I didn’t know how to do I literally just wrote the formula down and that’s it

#

But I feel more confident for test 2 material

frosty egret
#

I’ve been slacking after last week 😭

#

I haven’t done the homework in 2 weeks

slow crow
#

I’ve been more motivated in all my classes because I (maybe) failed (all my midterms)

#

I had all three midterms in the same week (physics, multi, chbe) so it was just tough to process it all

frosty egret
#

Yeah last week I had physics chem and multi exam

#

I ended up withdrawing from my cs class lmao

#

Cus I had no time

#

These 8 ams are killing me

slow crow
#

Which chem and cs?

frosty egret
#

Chem 1310

#

And I dropped cs 7292 lol

slow crow
#

Why the fuck are you taking a graduate cs class?

frosty egret
#

💀

#

I kinda skipped all my gen Ed’s

slow crow
#

How are you even eligible for that as a first year?

frosty egret
#

Im a 2nd year

slow crow
#

Oh

frosty egret
#

I kinda speed ran one of my cs thread

#

But then I don’t wanna do software at all

slow crow
#

When are u graduating?

frosty egret
#

Cause it kinda is boring so I’m switching to compe

#

Sometime between 4-5 years in total

#

So prob ‘27 or ‘28

#

I’m not tryna kms rushing

slow crow
#

I’m probably ‘28 cuz “theoretically” I could graduate fall ‘27 but I wanna do an internship next semester

frosty egret
#

Yeah that’s fair

#

I still don’t really know what I wanna do

slow crow
#

That’s exactly why I picked chem e

#

Cuz I know that I don’t know what I wanna do

frosty egret
#

ChemE is wild pick

#

Ain’t it the hardest major here

#

Also someone on physics ed asked if they should drop the class if they’re premed and got a 31 😭

#

This is like the worst school to do premed cause it fucks ur gpa

slow crow
#

But once you get past year 3 classes ur chillin

#

It’s just thermo and fluids that suck

#

Once partial derivatives and diffeqs get involved

slow crow
ashen minnow
frosty egret
#

It’s kinda funny watching first years bomb an exam as a 2nd year

#

Cause I bombed so many exams my first year and got my first C in a class lmao

frosty egret
ashen minnow
#

yes bro

#

u chillin once u graduate!

#

its that easy

slow crow
#

I’m on fall y2 curriculum rn

#

I’m approximately a semester to a semester + .5 ahead so I only have 4 semesters of hell left including this one

frosty egret
#

Oh that’s chill

#

I heard there’s a 6 hour lab class chemE’s need

#

Have u taken that lol

slow crow
#

Haven’t taken that yet, that’s synth lab

#

You take it concurrent or with orgo 2

#

I’m taking orgo 1 next semester, I hear it’s easier compared to how other schools teach it

#

Or maybe because ChemE is a lot harder than premed so ChemE’s think it’s easier?

tough fern
slow crow
#

MechE is very versatile so the job market is really never bad

Why the hell does the comp media major here only have 2 hours of free electives

#

That's not even one class

#

That's 2/3 of a class

#

What if I want to do a minor

Also the credits lie, a 2-3 hour class will be brutal

2 free credit hours is insane

#

I don't want to do that

#

Save me

#

Should I switch majors

#

But I like my major ;-;

#

But I want to actually be able to take fun classes instead of spending 100% of my time on required classes that's why I didn't apply to usc 😭

lament willow
#

How does comp sci minor work because I want to do an astrophysics minor when they start the program but my mom wants me to do CS 😭😭

#

Like is it apply to get in like the major or nah

pseudo stone
cold lantern
slow crow
#

I have no free electives left

#

And I’m a first year 😭

frosty egret
craggy ermine
frosty egret
#

i just take classes im interested in even if my free electives are full lol

#

tuition is fixed after like 6 credit hours every semester

craggy ermine
#

Or do you overload

frosty egret
#

although, some classes outside ur major might have restrictions

#

so not always possible to classes outside ur major

#

one way to get rid of some restrictions is doing a minor (you don't have to finish the minor)

craggy ermine
#

So I'm planning on doing a major with only 2 free credit hours, I'm assuming it's hard/impossible to do a minor outside of my major with that? How many classes do you think I'll be able to take?

frosty egret
#

i mean you can take more free electives than the 2 credits you need

#

almost no one fit their minor for their free electives

craggy ermine
#

OH WAIT

#

it means you NEED 2 credits

frosty egret
#

yeah

craggy ermine
#

I thought it meant you only have 2 free credits you're allowed to take 😭

frosty egret
#

oh nah

craggy ermine
#

thank God LOL

frosty egret
#

just for ur graduation requirement for your bachelors degree, you need 2 credits in free electives lol

craggy ermine
#

See that's why I didn't want to do usc cause their major is so limited, like I talked to my AO and they told me that I would be lucky to take even 1 class outside of my major

frosty egret
#

oh wtf

craggy ermine
#

yeah it was insane

#

and the application reqs were crazy too

#

Like custom portfolios, videos, all that stuff

#

so I was like hell no lol

#

I have so many interests outside my major and I was NOT about to spend all of my time with the same 20 ish people taking only required classes

frosty egret
#

yeah so after your free electives are all satisfied for your major, the rest of the credits will go to either fall through (not counted/needed for ur degree) or can satisfy the credits you need for a minor if u do that

craggy ermine
#

okay yeah thank God lol

#

for a sec I panicked

#

Cause I'm thinking about doing an ID minor

#

And taking classes in business and poli sci

I want to go into human centered design so I definitely want to at the very least take ID classes

#

And I'll be coming in with nearly no credits too x_x

Gtech called my AIME scores insignificant and wont make an impact to my app

i sent them an update abt my scores and i got that reply or something 😭

That's it

#

They don't give credit for stats

Oh and engineering

That's insane

bro I know a 3x amo guy who got deferred

😭

craggy ermine

craggy ermine
#

And its "main" college would maybe lean towards computing rather than liberal arts

deft cave
craggy ermine
#

Okay true

#

It's mostly cause I have nothing cs in my entire application and 50% of my major is cs lol

#

And the college still impacts it somewhat

glacial sand
#

guess my admissions officer's mood was amazing 😭

deft cave
hearty ruin
#

I got accepted without qualifying to AIME

#

Ummm

craggy ermine
#

college admissions are a crapshoot

deft cave
#

That’s a horrible argument

somber haven
deft cave
#

The guy I know on here who got gtech cs won like major hackathons

somber haven
#

doesn't make people who got in or got rejected feel better to say that

#

if you got rejected they thought you would thrive somewhere else

craggy ermine
#

Yeah but it's hard to predict

somber haven
#

that doesn't mean crapshoot, it just means we don;t know what the class is gonna look like and they do

craggy ermine
#

I have multiple Bs in my transcript in stem classes, no crazy awards, nothing related to cs in my classes/ecs, and I got into a major that's half cs

craggy ermine
#

I'm still convinced my gt acceptance was a fluke though lol

#

And no one can convince me otherwise

somber haven
#

i talked to the AOs who accepted me early and they accept people who are going to thrive at the school and with the people who they also accept

craggy ermine
#

Yeah

#

A lot of times it's a personality fit

#

Or random factors out of your control

somber haven
#

it's not just the uni, it's the people you're going to school with and the same person might get accepted one year and rejected another year

craggy ermine
#

That's why it's a crapshoot lol, there's so much luck to it

somber haven
#

crapshoot implies that it's random though, it's not. they're looking for people to fit the bill and we just don't know what it is they're looking for... we think we're a good fit sometimes where we're not

craggy ermine
#

Oh yeah what I mean by crapshoot is that it's so unpredictable and it's not necessarily that someone did something "right" or "wrong", it could've just been pure luck

somber haven
#

mm

#

ok i understand

#

sorry i'm not from US and people say crapshoot normally meaning like "totally random"

craggy ermine
#

Like I definitely do not think I should've been accepted over someone else but I guess they saw something in me, and maybe I would've been rejected had I applied RD

somber haven
#

i'm still in disbelief

#

It was just pure shock for me lol

somber haven
#

I KNOW

#

in the moment i opened it i was like i cannot handle a defer

#

it moved in slomo i swear

hollow dagger
#

I feel like there’s something in particular you have to convey in that supplemental essay, everyone who got in from my school, their supplement had it

craggy ermine

At the time I preferred unc over gt but now I prefer gt over unc lol so I'm glad I got in

craggy ermine

Oh I thought you meant like there are too many gen eds or something

#

But yeah that's a problem with all public schools

#

And intro classes

#

Hopefully joining honors will help

slow crow
#

Idk maybe? Haven’t heard a lot abt honors

#

It’s just a different section, same teacher tho

#

Also if u take a class like physics or math ur just gonna look at the best teacher’s videos or smthn

craggy ermine
#

The honors will at least have smaller class sizes I think

#

So that'll help a lot

frosty egret
#

most (not all) sections reserved for honors program are just reserved seats, where you share the same lecture as everyone else

#

which is kinda ass, but theres like no classroom space here to have a reserved room for a small set of people 😭

#

but some humanities probably will have a separate lecture for honors program (HP) ppl

#

for stem classes, ur HP sections will just be same lecture with another section

#

unfortunately one of the cons of going to a school with 25k+ students

#

hell, they cant even get enough rooms for classes so some classes are starting to be hybrid lol

slow crow
#

Maybe for CS 😭

#

But we have lots of engineering buildings with small individualized classes

lament willow

That’s one of my fears of gtech like idk how I’m gonna adjust to a class size that’s bigger than my school population..

Gts probs harder when u come from a mid HS

I would’ve expected standardized testing and volunteering and essays to count for more

I’m an Indian comp major, there’s no way that’s accurate

ocean parcel
#

tf is this site
you can't consider ethnicity legally

ocean parcel
#

well they've clearly got a lot wrong
alumni relation
essays (technically not "very important" but still important)
ethnicity obv
extracurricular activities (same as essays)
character/personal qualities
tf is "campus visit"
recommendations

#

they have basically everything wrong

frosty egret
#

Some stuff is just hella outdated

glacial sand
#

and if you're way above avg for the hs

frosty egret
#

They used to really care about alumni and legacy, they explicitly stated that it improved ur acceptance rate by like 10-20%

#

But now like a year ago they stopped doing that I think and just considered legacy for transfer pathway now

#

A lot of transfers ik got in from pathway

#

Yea lol. But not all legacy gets pathway, and u don’t have to be legacy to get pathway

#

It’s kinda weird

#

lol

First gen pathway is also pretty op

Oh yea my friend transferred here and went to gsmst apparently and I was surprised he didn’t get in originally

What major did u apply as

Math?

Lmao wtf

Kudos for doing math

I could never do that lol

Idk I thought I was good at math after taking calc BC but I bombed my first math class here

Partly my fault tho lol

The intro math classes here have been so hit or miss and it’s so ass.
Linear I got a C but I’m satisfied cause the gpa for linear was like a 2.6 my semester lmao
Honors discrete math I locked tf in and got an A
Then algorithms hit and I dropped that shit because it was so bad. My friend stayed and regret not dropping because the class gpa was apparently like 2.7 at the end.
And now multi is going decent but idk how imma do on this next exam next week lol. I think I bombed the quiz today

slow crow
#

This unit hasn’t been that bad, it’s just the double integrals that are killing me

granite gorge
#

the gt conditional stuff is so dumb

#

its pretty frustrating to grind my ass off to somehow clutch a spot as a first year (only kid in my extremely competitive north east hs)

#

and then i found out two average ass kids in our grades got spots as second years

#

just because their siblings went there

#

like bro if ur gonna give stupid spots give them to my smart ass friends who got deferred/rejected

#

giving freebies because their sibling worked hard is insane

#

straight up nepotism no shame at all

deft cave
#

Conditional is worse than defer

#

I agree with the reject though

#

I know some smart ass people who got rejected who shouldn’t have been

legacy is the dumbest shit in existence

how is it fair that every GT alum's sibling has a cheat code in college apps

a literal fucking cheat code

There must have been thousands of kids dumber than me when we applied last year. But their merit doesn’t guarantee them a spot.

If they lived in Atlanta and applied for CS that probably explains why they got rejected
