[empty light]

I WISH

I genuinely might commit if i get into gtech

[torpid harbor]

Like without seeing rds

[austere marlin]

alr

they alr

[empty light]

Okay pure rage bait here

[austere marlin]

sorry

wbu

[empty light]

Im aero, my big ec is I did some research abt quantum computing and satellite communications at utd lol

[austere marlin]

bruh

cuqantum computing really

[empty light]

I’m not a citizen (green card) so I couldn’t do much of research with the federal govt like AFRL

[austere marlin]

ur fine

unless ur gpa cooked like mine

[empty light]

So I did some individual stuff lol, and I usually do some cad modeling in my free time and send it off to my friend so he can 3D print stuff

[austere marlin]

thats cool bruh

i was thinkibg ab dojgn a cad busines

[empty light]

Obv a club at school, my friend lowk clutched with the 3D prints cuz I can show the members some models of the stuff I built

[austere marlin]

huh?

[empty light]

I founded an engineering club, so I’d show off some of the model planes or shuttles I made

[torpid harbor]

Chatgpt thinks im rejected at all ivies and top state schools

[empty light]

Sorry abt the confusion I was tweaking

[empty light]

I am NOT trusted chat with anything rn, I jokingly asked it to chanceme once and I got glazed

[austere marlin]

bruh

gpt said im getting rejcted

[wide snow]

class rank isnt considered for admissions

according to the common dataset for gt

[austere marlin]

they still rank you indirectly

[torpid harbor]

They take so many vals and sals tho

[empty light]

Isn’t than an instate thing

[empty light]

Like they take instate Val & sals

[wide snow]

https://admission.gatech.edu/transfer/gpa-requirements i believe my GPA should be 4.0 according to my highschool transcript. freshman and sophomore were straight As (besides one A- in music semester 2 but that's still 4 points).

Now for my junior year when i did IBDP i got 7s in physics, math, and comp sci HL but 5s in english, french SL and a 6 in geography SL.

Most online sources treat grade 7 as an A+ and 6 as an A and 5 as a B but my transcript has offered a much more generous conversion with
7 = A++ (yeah idk what's supposed to mean)
6 = A+
5 = A.

I believe that AOs would look at the transcript grade conversion which would then put me at a 4.0 but if not then Im cooked for the GPA box.

oh wait the link i put is for transfers nvm

[empty light]

I was gonna say

[wide snow]

yuh ignore that lmao

[empty light]

lowkey like I’m just praying that my grades are good enough lol

Every school evaluates gpa differently so idk

I’m not cracked like oh I’m the Val of my school or anything I’m just there lol

[wide snow]

so happy that my school doesn't offer APs because I can't be punished for not taking them in freshman and sophomore year

and IBDP rigor is really wel respected in the states from what I've heard

[empty light]

Are you international?

[wide snow]

nah im from illinois but i go to a private school that offers IBDP between junior and senior year

i applied to UIUC as well for aero

[empty light]

Ahhhh I see I see

[empty light]

Bro you’re fine 😭🙏

I hope I get into uiuc aero I’d be very excited if I did get in

[wide snow]

but UIUC admits by major. grainger is like hella competitive and i'm not sure how much of an advantage being instate gives me

[empty light]

To be fair all engineering is competitive so like I’m prepared for the worst

I alr got into Texas A&M and ERAU so atleast I have backups

[wide snow]

ohhh nice i also got into erau

[empty light]

Nice nice!

[wide snow]

daytona beach or prescott?

[empty light]

DB

[wide snow]

same

they have an airport on campus bro it's so cool

[empty light]

They’re lowk tuff

So tuff

[wide snow]

yuh

[empty light]

Cost of attendance is a lil icky but they did offer a very nice scholarship to me

I’m in state for Texas so hopefully UT Austin doesn’t absolutely decimate me

[potent idol]

RA RA RUTGERS

[torpid harbor]

No bro

[potent idol]

[potent idol]

the golf course outside walksman is kinda fire ngl

Piscataway campus aint horrible for that reason 😭

[empty light]

Yep

[crisp citrus]

mit of teh south

idk if its posted yet

not out yet

prob jan 30-31

[wide snow]

my semester 1 grades came out. my physics dropped to a 6 unfortunately but my english went up to a 6 (from a 5) so my IB total still stays the same (everything else was maintained)

[crisp citrus]

you might wanna sit down for this one

its over for you

[potent idol]

[wide snow]

[crisp citrus]

not a make or break

[hollow patio]

It should be fine myb. I get a B on one of my ENGL Dual enrollment courses

Only B I’ve ever gotten for my DE classes

[torpid harbor]

Shit

But thats DE

Im prolly cooked

Fuck man

[hollow patio]

Dw dude

[torpid harbor]

Bro i mean maybe bc i applied biz admin

It helps

Idfk

[hollow patio]

I don’t think that’s a competitive major tbh

R u instate?

If ur instate your def good

[torpid harbor]

Oos 😭😭

[hollow patio]

OH

💀

[torpid harbor]

So im cooked

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

😭😭😭😭😭

[hollow patio]

I mean

UGA has a good business school.. 😄

[torpid harbor]

Its one b bro 😭😭😭

Pls god

Let me in

My ecs were stacked

Essay was good

[hollow patio]

Is ur SAT good?

[torpid harbor]

790 M

[hollow patio]

Oh

Dw

[torpid harbor]

760RW

1550

[hollow patio]

You have a chance

At this point it’s anything

[torpid harbor]

3.96 bro

[hollow patio]

Tech is real weird with OOS. Cuz it is a state school

But imma say ur in

If I had to guess

[torpid harbor]

But my weighted gpa is like a 4.3 or 4.4

I took 13 APs

[hollow patio]

Because biz admin isn’t competitive + you have very good stats + SAT

[torpid harbor]

And i got a 5 on ap calc bc

[hollow patio]

Oh ur good then

[torpid harbor]

That has to make up for it

[hollow patio]

It def does

[torpid harbor]

The teacher was js hell

[hollow patio]

I get it

[torpid harbor]

Fuck bro im so worried

I need gatech

[hollow patio]

I had a horrible professor for my Dual enrollment class

[torpid harbor]

Its my dream genuinely

[hollow patio]

Why specifically Tech?

I’m interested

[torpid harbor]

Cheaper than most oos, insane internship placement, awesoeme resources for ece, near the good part of atlanta, and i have 2 friends there

And GT Hackerhouse

That shi sounds tuff

[hollow patio]

Ur gonna change majors if u get in?

[torpid harbor]

Nah

Dual

I wanna do double major ece and business

[hollow patio]

Ohh

[torpid harbor]

Or at least a minor in cs

[hollow patio]

That sounds like so much work 😭

What r you trying to do as an adult?

[torpid harbor]

Yeah it peollt is

Prolly is

[narrow igloo]

is comp media competitive

i avoided main CS like the plague

[torpid harbor]

Not too sure yet

But smth in tech but in mgmt

I like startups too

[hollow patio]

I was actually gonna do that major

[narrow igloo]

the curriculum is so great

i applied oos ea for it

[hollow patio]

I’m not entirely sure. I don’t think it’s super competitive tho. It’s one of the few programs in the country for it

[torpid harbor]

Were u oos or in state

[hollow patio]

The only reason I didn’t do it was because at Tech you can’t transfer to Computer science so I was like I might as well do it

[torpid harbor]

@hollow patio

[hollow patio]

I’m in state. I just got accepted for CS early action this month 🙂

[torpid harbor]

WOHOOOOO

So happy for u

[hollow patio]

Thank you 😭

It still feels surreal

[torpid harbor]

Thats so good bro

[hollow patio]

It’s been my dream school since 7th grade

[torpid harbor]

cs gatech is so good

[narrow igloo]

accepted for CS 💀

how

[hollow patio]

Fr I have two friends. Both of them got internships at FAANG

One at Amazon another at google

Mind you it was the summer after freshman yr

[torpid harbor]

Wtf

[astral island]

🙏🙏

oos cs is it over

[empty light]

it’s okay you got it

[potent idol]

harvard st commons >>

[golden pilot]

how hard is it to get in

[fluid cipher]

hard?

[crisp citrus]

depends on a lot of things cant lie

[shell eagle]

They flip a coin for each application

[crisp citrus]

true bro thats why the acceptance is 50 50

[wide snow]

yeah its 50 50 because it can either happen or it doesn't

[astral island]

[shell eagle]

de credit ftw 🤑

[timber prism]

i think they changed this from "late january" to "late january or early february" 😭

yikes

[astral island]

lMAO

[shell eagle]

early february is wild

js expect jan 30

[narrow igloo]

uhh

rip

[astral island]

i think it was mid jan acc lmao according to my spreadhseet

[timber prism]

i think they always said late jan

decision calendar says jan 30th

so prob then, but if they updated the website to say early feb, maybe they might run a little behind 😭

[astral island]

rip

[torpid harbor]

bro

fuck

im alr scared

now more

[viral heart]

When is it usually out😭

Like what’s the time last yr

[shell eagle]

7pm est

[crisp citrus]

holy intl student

it might be wraps for ryou

[viral heart]

I’m cooked 😭😭

[zenith egret]

how should i format an update email to GT for ea2?

is there a generally accepted word limit?

[crisp citrus]

what does this update email include bro

[crisp citrus]

but try and keep it short ig

[zenith egret]

i evolved from ftc code team member to co lead and we kinda cooked at our last meet, our autonomous performance peaked at like top 1% global. also will hopefully get some sponsors by the end of break

i applied as chem E so ik it might sound a little weird but i really do enjoy robotics (too bad they didnt have a supp for another EC)

[crisp citrus]

and why are you emailin this to them

[astral island]

for an update??

[crisp citrus]

shouldnt that be in the loci if you dont get accepted

[zenith egret]

but i wanna update them??

[astral island]

lmao

[crisp citrus]

im ngl i thought updates you just save for loci

seems kinda desperate

[zenith egret]

eh i mean i guess

i think ill just send bc my common app description was kinda mid

[crisp citrus]

wallah bro just wait i promise you its not that serious

theres a good chance theyll just ignore you

[zenith egret]

mmm what if i won my pe class tennis tournament

[astral island]

bro is trying to eliminate the competition

[shell eagle]

i never emailed them updates in between submitting and when ea2 released i js like added additional documents or something through the portal i think

[astral island]

oh ok

yea if they have doc upload i think thats better

[viral heart]

Btw should I upload sth like my research paper/engineering portfolio through the additional documents in the portal

[crisp citrus]

i lowkey don’t think they have a specific spot for it

so sure

[viral heart]

oh yeaaaa i checked the portal

no where to upload 🤣

[dark verge]

Hey guys, so I had a question. I'm applying to Georgia Tech, obviously, but I was wondering how you guys structured the prompt: Why do you want to study your chosen major and why do you want to study your major at Georgia Tech?

[mighty pewter]

i did ummm

i put why i wanna study my major and i put why i wantged to study that at georgia tech

but like pretty even split

150 + 150, and i tlaked about like my ec that relates to my major and the programs that that could be tied to at tech

[shell eagle]

i did like 3-4 sentences explaining why i want to study the major and the rest was why i want to study it at tech

[crisp citrus]

when you say we

are you an ao

or do you work for gatech

or areyoua student

[crisp citrus]

instate?

[austere marlin]

yo wahts the OSCAR shit

for Gtech

[shell eagle]

?

[austere marlin]

wait nvm

[crisp citrus]

what’s the method for studying on campus

any good library spots or wtv

[shell eagle]

Library is always full I never study there

[crisp citrus]

you just study in dorm

do you even study

[shell eagle]

yes and theres study rooms in my building
i also study in the student center/clough if theres space which is sorta like library but maybe louder

i kinda had trouble studying in my dorm because the chair was actually so ass but i'm bringing a chair from home when i go back in two weeks so ig that means i can permanently lock myself in my room and actually study better ❤️‍🩹

[crisp citrus]

is it your chair is awful

or chairs in general

[shell eagle]

in general i think because the ones u get in ur room are already the anti-hanging rocking chairs

but i traded that chair out for another chair in my apartment (the dining room chairs) but the cushions are so bad it hurts to sit on 😭

[crisp citrus]

oh

wth

[shell eagle]

yea

i ended up sitting on my bed to study (which obviously does not work)

[crisp citrus]

youare deadass just asking to fail atp

💔

[shell eagle]

listen ok i will have a better chair that i will actually sit in so then i can study more and not fail

also i only got 1 B this semester so it cant be THAT bad 💀

[crisp citrus]

were you in or out of state btw

i feel like ive asked but ive forgotten

[shell eagle]

oos

[crisp citrus]

was ga your like only school acceptance first choice

you get accepeted other palces?

[shell eagle]

just gogoed it

was nto familiar with your game

[shell eagle]

[crisp citrus]

fawk

[shell eagle]

😭

[crisp citrus]

[shell eagle]

nah

i toured and didnt fw the campus 💔

[crisp citrus]

ah

[shell eagle]

i didnt fw any of the UCs either but my mom made me apply 💀

[crisp citrus]

well damn

your acceptances dont exactly inspire too much confidence fo rme

what was yrou school like

feeer? rural? how many people?

[shell eagle]

50 ppl per grade in a mid size city

[crisp citrus]

kidna same here. she forced me to apply to ucb and ucla, but my brother went to irvine and from the time i was there to visit it was really nice

oc is actually so crazy you can do literally anything

[crisp citrus]

feeder? private?

[shell eagle]

public but you apply to get in (idk the official term for it 💀)

other ppl call us an unc feeder but im not really sure about that

[crisp citrus]

is yoru school like locked in academics wise. are the peopelat your scholo crazy

[shell eagle]

kind of

[crisp citrus]

yeah okay thats a littel ebtter for me

ym school be a bum school

its like 10x your grade

what was your gpa weighted?

[shell eagle]

4.8

bc of dual enrollment

[crisp citrus]

out of

????

[shell eagle]

5

😭

[crisp citrus]

oh

yeah our dual enrollment isnt counted as weighted

i have de math 4 years in a row

[shell eagle]

crazy

[crisp citrus]

so my shits 4.3/4.8

but even then out of 500

im 5th

😭

[shell eagle]

my school doesnt have ranking 🙏

[crisp citrus]

well ours doesnt either

i just be talking with people

[shell eagle]

lmao

[crisp citrus]

1-3 are like 4.5+

then theres one dude with 4.4

then theres nobody else

unless theres some sleeper person who im not like aware of

but im pretyt locked in with the upper students id say at our school

[shell eagle]

cool

[crisp citrus]

yeah makes me a little less stressed beside your school sounds way more complicated than my school

competitive

massive for autocorrect again

[tough wren]

gang i have a 4.6 and im ranked 49/800

i hate my school

[astral island]

isnt that p standard

i have 4.8 im in the high teens out of 700

[tough wren]

it depends on the area I mean but like I reserve my right to complain lmao

it’s kinda pay to win tho

everyone above me just pays to take virtual APs

[astral island]

mb yea

[astral island]

lmao do we live in the same area

[tough wren]

I live in Forsyth county Georgia 😭

[astral island]

nvm but same idea

[tough wren]

uhhuh lmao

[sterile grotto]

h

[shell eagle]

life changing

[crisp citrus]

lol!

our school isnt that competitive

except for this year

if I was born a year before

4.3/4.8 woulda made me 1st

[astral island]

dang

[crisp citrus]

yeah

thsi year is insane though

so far for earlies theres 1 princeton 2 yale 1 columbia 2 northwestern

this year is just locked in for some reason

oh and 1 mit

[astral island]

wtff

[crisp citrus]

last year we had 0 ivies

we had 1 northwestern

[tough wren]

same we had like two stanfords, a Harvard, and a caltech

[torpid harbor]

did everyone here just have a 4.0 UW when they applieod

[ruby stone]

i have a 3.92

I got 2 B+ freshman year

[torpid harbor]

bro

thats fine bc it was b+ freshman year

[crisp citrus]

oh what the

thats odd

[astral island]

what grade range is @-

a-

[crisp citrus]

90-92

93+ is A

man

wait yeah whats your range

[astral island]

thats brutal lol

[astral island]

90-100 is A

[crisp citrus]

💔

[astral island]

much easier to get a 4.0

[crisp citrus]

i woulda had a flawless 4.0 at your school

[astral island]

that is the reason i have a 4.0

i have quite a few 90-92s

waut so do they recalc

[crisp citrus]

🤷‍♂️

[solar badger]

3.82 uw (1 B freshman, 1 B sophomore, 2 Bs junior). My school does 89.5+ as an A. Applied cs out of state. Wish me luck.

Remember, there is always someone more cooked than you

I'm hoping they accidently put my application in the accept pile

[astral island]

same yea 89.5 bc it rounds

and same im cs oos 😭

[solar badger]

Well u good cuz u have a 4.0 so dw

[crisp citrus]

1

[astral island]

trust maybe its how hard the calsses are

[crisp citrus]

your classes could also be a lot harder than mine

[shell eagle]

if it happened to me it can happen to u twin, keep believing ❤️‍🩹 🥹

[crisp citrus]

hasnt it been the 30th in past years

[astral island]

does it ever drive you crazy

[prisma violet]

imagine tryna go to georgia tech

mid ass school

[astral island]

oh

[prisma violet]

bum ahh school

[prisma violet]

what kinda major is materials science and engineering

[crisp citrus]

materiasl science and engineering

from what i read im pretty sure its worrking on new materials

[prisma violet]

sounds goofy sadly

[crisp citrus]

it was either that or chem e

theyre literally the same thing but chem is more micro scale

[astral island]

zozo demon got some vendetta

[crisp citrus]

i was forced man

ga made you chosoe a secondary major

i wanted it just to be mech

[prisma violet]

get me out of this school

[astral island]

oh

[prisma violet]

more like get me out of this major

(materials science and engineering)

[crisp citrus]

are you that major

[prisma violet]

yes

i cant send images in this channel sadly

very strange

[reef plank]

You have to level up

It’s 50 messages within a rolling 180 day period and updates your count every few hours

Its prevention against people who either join just to send nsfw and gore or those who go inactive for a long period of time and then get hacked

[prisma violet]

i see

if this account got hacked id cry

[reef plank]

There are a few phrases that if you were to say rn you’d get auto banned bc you don’t have the role but based on historical messages you’re unlikely to say them bc they’re always associated with a few scam copy pastes

But it’s how a good number of scammers in this server aren’t visible

Unless they dm people

[prisma violet]

type shit

[shell eagle]

im taking mse2001 this semester is it easy or chopped

[prisma violet]

Super cake

Who r u taking it w

[shell eagle]

great question

[torpid harbor]

Bro everyone in my class

Its so aids

[crisp citrus]

you arre one of the msot stacked ec's of all time

[torpid harbor]

The teacher fucked us

[crisp citrus]

are all the people at yourr school built like that?????

[torpid harbor]

Nah

Not rlly

I mean

[flint nova]

You’ll be fine

[crisp citrus]

then youre okay

😭

[flint nova]

Wherever u end up

[torpid harbor]

I think imma end up at rutgers

[crisp citrus]

yeah ngl whereeve ryou end up bro if you could do this in hs you will be fine

[torpid harbor]

My grades are falling sr year

[flint nova]

Im not gonna guarantee anything college is a game of luck and ik ppl much more cracked than I am

Who didn’t get into gt

[torpid harbor]

No like imo idgaf abt college

But parents kinda

[flint nova]

But u are an extremely strong applicant

[torpid harbor]

Idk br

Oos

[flint nova]

Check dm

[torpid harbor]

Is so bad

[crisp citrus]

oos is only like so

i think no matte wat pool yourr ein bro youre gonna be at teh verry top

wallah its wraps if these are people im competing with

in junior year i thoguth ga tech was easy dawg

and now im realizing how wrong I was

[prisma violet]

Why would u think tech is easy

[crisp citrus]

dunno

didnt do my rresearch

kinda based on the fact my brother got in

hes nto dumb by any means but hsi app was also really weak

also im not heaing people having gt in the same conversations as harvard so while i knew it was ocmeptitive, i jsut assumed it wasnt as much as like prrinceon and what not

[astral island]

well its not right

its like diff

[crisp citrus]

yeah

no flame but gt seems a tiny less selective but its still utlar selective

[empty light]

What the hell…

[torpid harbor]

Ikr

[empty light]

Hopefully GT pities me enough to let me in (please 🙏)

[prisma violet]

Tech isn’t Harvard

But OOS it might be

[wide snow]

i go to a private school with IB i feel so left out when u guys talk about class rank and GPAs cuz my school doenst do that

there's like 90 kids in my grade

25 days left

also happy new year guys

[primal raven]

Guys in common app I forgot to add my sat in testing section, every other uni I went test opt so I forgot but most unis in the portal have a place to add testing.. is it the same for gtech?

[astral island]

ill check

[astral island]

yes

[primal raven]

Ok perfect thank you sm

[ruby stone]

Anyone apply industrial engineering to GT?

I have yet to find somebody who has done so

[austere marlin]

i got the same shit

idt it means u got in

they j asking if u wanna apply for schaolrships

so if u get in

tehy can tell u

or im a fucking idoit

[lapis girder]

My friend did

[crisp citrus]

ngl o thought ga tech was super heavy on the engineering which it is

but i have literally only seen one person say they applied chem e

is it just me and that dude

[lapis girder]

I shoudve applied to GT business

[cedar dagger]

yeah, i js didnt know if making that acc was necessary to be considered for admissions n was worried 😭

based on what yall r saying tho, i assume not?

[golden pilot]

i applied aerospace

im cooked

[shell eagle]

Real

[astral island]

i applied cs

im cooked

[narrow igloo]

is cm easier than cs

i applied that because my profile fit it better

[crisp citrus]

is gt like a cs school

i was under the impression it was an engineeeing school

but it seems like a lot more cs

[naive ledge]

i applied comp media

[ruby stone]

@shell eagle are the industrial eng kids at gtech less smarter than the other heavy stem engineerings

[ruby stone]

Can i know his stats 😭

[lapis girder]

Ok wait lemme ask her

[shell eagle]

Help what ☠️ idk

I don’t know any IE people

[sterile grotto]

so like VFX??

ngl thats a cool major

[narrow igloo]

W

gamedev?

[buoyant vessel]

its both

its top 3 cs

top 2 aerospace

really good industrial e and compe

[naive ledge]

yeah LMFAO

[buoyant vessel]

when does tech come out

[naive ledge]

talked alot about vr and stuff

[narrow igloo]

in the same boat as you gl

i did vr haptic stuff for cmu but for gtech i think i talked more about story based immersion

[naive ledge]

icic

i have alike a cool award for vr so i justyapped alot about that

[narrow igloo]

gamedev awards 💀

my nonschool activities were almost all projects

[naive ledge]

placed nationally for tsa B)

lol same + alot of mentorship

[lavish glen]

tsa?

??????

[naive ledge]

yuh

[cold egret]

Yeah they placed nationally for the transportation security administration wdym /s

[ruby stone]

Rumor is that students at GT refer to IE as "imaginary engineering" cause it's not heavy in stem like others and mostly business

[crisp citrus]

league of legends it’s wraps for you

[naive ledge]

what if i put #1 ahri main na in my activities list tho

[crisp citrus]

are you th next legitkorea

red carpet of doom

[naive ledge]

STOP LMFAOOO

yes

🥀 🥀

see me on T1

[crisp citrus]

egirl champs as well

not saying that’s what you are

but still

[naive ledge]

pretty characters 😁

i aint playing like rengar

[crisp citrus]

we arre vey different

my characters i usually play

kayn

jhin sett aatrox jax

shen

talon

and then gwen

odd one out

[naive ledge]

LOL

[austere marlin]

did any of yall

get a financal aid webinar

[timber prism]

yeah

[lavish glen]

dude lowkey idk what other tsa exists lol

[buoyant vessel]

technology student association

its the least known ctso

because its still growing

and comparatively new as well

[lavish glen]

ctso?

[buoyant vessel]

career technical student org

like deca fbla hosa

[lavish glen]

OHHH ok makes sense, that cool

yeah my school doesn't have that yet lol

[buoyant vessel]

yeah starting one would be tuff

because not many ppl know about it

and its fun

[lavish glen]

wait is this where all the CS kids go

tsa?

[empty light]

I’m cooked too Dw (also applied aero)

[golden pilot]

TWIN we're both getting in twin

[empty light]

YESSS

GT PLEASE 🙏

[flat hollow]

yeah what about it?

[buoyant vessel]

not necessarily cuz like i said its not as well known

and widespread

but they have cs comps in it

like cs events

[astral island]

i joined tsa this yr for the side quest

[crisp citrus]

it’s lowk cuz im garb at landing skillshots

so most my damage on mages comes from auto targets and autos

[fluid cipher]

did anyone get the confirmation email from them?

[flat hollow]

What email ahaha

[primal raven]

Guys my mid year report comes first day of Feb but I think gtech expects it earlier so should I email or would they understand

[astral island]

same

[fluid cipher]

I js got it

[lucid canopy]

did everyone get the email about an invitation for financial aid webinar for ea

[astral island]

does it matter..

[shell eagle]

prolly not

[lucid canopy]

i mean they made me get notarized and i have no clue why but i don't think it's a sign or anything

[astral island]

everyone got it

[lucid canopy]

notarized?

no one else from my school did

[astral island]

what is notarized

[lucid canopy]

you have to like have a proof of identity for documents

i don't think it's a sign or anything but it's kind of weird that this was the only school that i had to do it for

[astral island]

intresting

[flat hollow]

Yes

Well I got it

Dos it mean anything

[lucid canopy]

i wouldn't think so. it might just be that they're probably on your applicaiton and assesing your financial aid package

[flat hollow]

I dont qualify

[lucid canopy]

wdym did you not apply for financial aid?

[flat hollow]

Nope

[lucid canopy]

wait then how did you get the email for the financial aib webinar

[flat hollow]

No idea

It’s also for scholarships

[lucid canopy]

ohh

[prisma violet]

WE yes WE are getting into tech

hope yall got your RD apps in

arent the non ga EA decisions soon too

tbh i didnt get in first try but im graduating from there so

[lucid canopy]

where'd you transfer from

[prisma violet]

kennesaw state

[rugged breach]

When are they going to be released?

[lucid canopy]

jan 30th 7 pm is probably when

[fresh aspen]

has anyone gotten in submitting multiple hours past hte deadline?

[fresh aspen]

what school gang

[prisma violet]

ask admissions office

[sick plover]

im still waiting

💔

[tough wren]

Lambert

[fresh aspen]

where'd u get in

[tough wren]

uga and my safeties

[mighty pewter]

the wait is killing me i wanna know so bad

[shell eagle]

flip a coin heads is acceptance tails is rejection

[crisp citrus]

what abt a dice does that work

[shell eagle]

i mean if you wanna assign which numbers are acceptance/rejection go for it

[crisp citrus]

couldnt i just make

it all numbers i get accepted

[shell eagle]

https://tenor.com/view/patrick-spongebob-spongebob-meme-patrick-meme-dumb-patrick-gif-9974665538168463324

idk bro you do you

[ruby stone]

ik this is old but wdym

is it really that much harder to get in industrial eng?

[crisp citrus]

do instate students still get a boost for regular decision

and if so is it still the 30 vs 8

[astral island]

is there any point sending updates

[shell eagle]

no

[zenith egret]

Wait is there actually not 🤣

I showed my guidance counselor some updates and she said I should def send bc they would consider them, but idt our school generally has a lot of kids applying to gt

[astral island]

so which one bruh

[zenith egret]

idk i lowkey trust my guidance counselor tho

also how'd u get the duck in ur profile?

[astral island]

bought it

[zenith egret]

ok cool

[crisp citrus]

aren’t you just supposed to save all the updates for loci if you need

[astral island]

aint no point if u get rejected

idkk

[crisp citrus]

i mean maybe significant things

[zenith egret]

uuuh idrk XD ig they know now

[zenith egret]

yea that was my thought process too

tbh it cant hurt and the update (if they check) made a common app activity way less bummy so i thought why not

[crisp citrus]

yeah that’s true

[zenith egret]

oh yea btw i saw one of ur msgs from above and i also applied for chem eng

[crisp citrus]

yeah can’t lie that was a completely lie

[zenith egret]

that makes 3 of us

[crisp citrus]

i applied mech

[zenith egret]

oh

[crisp citrus]

and materials science second

idk why i even lied abt that im sorry

🤗

goodluck to you though

[zenith egret]

XDD it's ok doesnt gt admit to freshman class btw?

[zenith egret]

good luck to u2

[crisp citrus]

they might

oh yeah they admit but they look at your major

specifically cs

[zenith egret]

yeah

not gonna lie tho mechanical might have the most aura

[crisp citrus]

your field does heavily weighted

mech was the only thing with thermodynamics so i picked it

that and or chem was a toss up

[zenith egret]

my friends in robotics are really good with physical stuff and i kinda get mogged every time i watch them work

[crisp citrus]

but mech is also engines

[crisp citrus]

LOL

dude i promise you it’s not that impressive

my friends who code i can’t even bring to comprehend what they’re doing

[zenith egret]

probably vibecoding (jk)

tbh ive been realizing more recently just how much i use ai to code 💀

it's a little more than a lot

[solar badger]

lmao dw i get mogged because i mix up righty tighty lefty loosy, but I do program all the autonomous and subsystems for the whole robot...

[zenith egret]

the mogging cancels out (except u just mogged me so the mogging continues)

[reef plank]

Wuh oh

I have not seen this say “or early Feb” before…

[solar badger]

nah i use github + copilot llm extension to code so i get mogged by the ai

[zenith egret]

saaaaame

wait do u use the thing from github student?

[solar badger]

no i just bought a membership for the year

[crisp citrus]

shits not coming out until march

[zenith egret]

ah honestly still prob worth it

[crisp citrus]

😭🙏

[reef plank]

That’s rd

[solar badger]

lowkey every software dev and ai engineer does that

[zenith egret]

yea i mean it just speeds things up so ppl can do more

[crisp citrus]

oh that’s true

it’s gonna be smth like february. 27

they gonn push it back

[solar badger]

it's great we'll get paid for listening to ai when we have a job

[crisp citrus]

ngl i’m awful at coding

i started learning in sophomore year

i can only do java

[solar badger]

i can only do python but got still code the robot in java bc of the ai

[cedar dagger]

do u wana know how i learned python?

[zenith egret]

tbh robotics code isnt really pure java right?

[cedar dagger]

i went to the zoo

and practiced with its native speakers

[zenith egret]

bc so many libraries already exist

[solar badger]

true but syntax shit i don't get

[crisp citrus]

is not doing robotics like omega debuff

i did it once but our robotics management is horrid so i just quit

[cedar dagger]

it's english... motor this motor that 😭

[crisp citrus]

15 thousand dollars in grants and somehow 0 dollars went to the robot

[cedar dagger]

(i still cant figure it out 90% of the time)

[solar badger]

same here lmao. Public schools need more funding

[crisp citrus]

i built a cinema intake freshman year and they just scrapped my idea

and replaced it last minute with smth that didn’t even work

[solar badger]

https://tenor.com/view/future-she-belong-to-the-streets-the-streets-gif-17248038

she for the streets

[crisp citrus]

it’s wtv

[lucid canopy]

what about comp eng

[crisp citrus]

🤷‍♂️

[flat hollow]

anyone else apply math and computing?

💀

[cold egret]

I put it as my alternate lol

[astral island]

same

[flat hollow]

:C

[prisma violet]

is math and computing an actual madjor

major

[flat hollow]

It’s a new major

Announced this year

[prisma violet]

Wow

[lavish glen]

how's the culture/atmosphere at gatech
