I'm planning to apply to Georgia Tech and I'm curious about what ACT score I should aim for. Does anyone know the average ACT score of admitted students, or at least a competitive score?
While exact figures may change year to year, Georgia Tech generally has highly competitive ACT scores. As of recent years, the middle 50% ACT scores for admitted students typically range from 28 to 34. This means that 25% of admitted students score above a 34, and 25% score below a 28.
While reaching this range might increase your chances, remember that Georgia Tech also considers other aspects of your application. Superior academic performance, strong extracurricular involvement, and well-written essays are also vital components of a competitive application. That being said, if your ACT score falls within or above this range, you're essentially in the ballpark academically.
