just got accepted in ga tech...pretty excited. anyone on IA go there?
Congratulations. I really wish I had chosen to go there instead of Clemson. I'm not dogging Clemson but if you get through Tech you can demand gross amounts of money from employees. I see it on a daily basis. I'm a Junior Engineer @ Maxxis Tires and we have one guy here from Tech and I know he's making $$$.
Just really stick the books your 1st year. If you're planning on being a ME or EE that 1st year Calc & Chemistry is the killer. Most people fail those classes their freshman year.

Congrats man, I am a second year at Tech. I started out in Mechanical, but just decided it wasn't for me. So this semester was my first semester in the business school, and so far I like it so much better. Right now I plan on focusing on accounting, but who knows.
but yeah, what do you plan on majoring in?

heh... geek...
No- Congrats, Good job. Here are some boobies for you:boobies:

There goes another one to the business school
Congrats! My girlfriend just got her acceptance letter today too. BME FTW!!! Georgia Tech is ranked 3rd or 4th in the nation for their BME program. I have to advise you it's hard as hell though. I'm a first year and I have tons of friends majoring in BME. So far 2/5 dropped BME and switched to Bio/Chem. But good luck in your endeavors. What's the Good Word?!?Originally Posted by brownboi512

yea i already heard it was better than east...but idk bout which one on west...all depends on aid to see how much i can afford.
Congrats on getting into TECH!
I started out biomedical engineering to. It's a *****, but if you really like it (which it turns out I didn't) it's do-able. I made the switch to IE the end of my second year (1st in the nation baby!). Not trying to discourage you by any means. One of my really good friends will be graduating with a bme degree in 4 years flat (rare).Originally Posted by brownboi512
As for parking permits. My freshman year I just went into the parking office and got one. They tell you the freshman can't have one, haha but I got one just fine. Granted it wasn't the closest lot though.
I'm not going to disagree completely with this, but know that east campus definitely has its perks too (closer tech square, football, and most parties). And if you're considering going greek, you should definitely live on east, no question about it.Originally Posted by KustomBuildz
i dont plan on going greek til soph year...so hows the import scene at tech? u guys have any meets?
what if he wants the "freshman experience" with freshman hill and all? =POriginally Posted by KustomBuildz
and i mean East is really closer to everything else. Brittain > Woodruff though![]()

my girl graduated from there(civil engineering) and yeah......bank and rank. but you've got to work for it.
i've seen friends of hers that went there make millions before graduation/drop out. i've seen some become total flops, but most often they know what they want out of tech, get it, and command a pretty high salary, upon completion of school.
I like east campus a lot better, not sure what it is, but I just like the whole feel of east much much better.
I don't know what the **** you're talking about EcKoBoi770, haha, Brittain sucks compared to Woodruff.
I go to Tech, as well. I'm a fourth year management major. Got a jaerb lined up and then I'm out this *****.
Congrats man!!!

haha yeah it is way more convenient for the east campus folks. chicken sandwich covered in hot sauce was always my favoriteOriginally Posted by EcKoBoi770
As a school, its great. Management is easy and I will get a good job and decent pay.Originally Posted by imbosile
BUT... its an awful place to be. 70% guys 30% girls, downtown atlanta isnt that great, etc. Stay a few weekends at any college town and you will realize this place sucks.

The atmosphere adds to the seriousness and studiousness of tech. I mean seriously, it really IS easier to concentrate and listen in lecture when ****ing 4 out of only 5 girls in your class is ugly as **** and that 1 girl is only decent because she's skinnier and is wearing sophee's and it's ****ing 34 degrees outside. Know what I mean? But in all seriousness, staying the weekend at Athens with some old high school friends was the ****. :boobies: andOriginally Posted by Kyle

Haha. I nearly went to Tech, I have some good friends there and I liked the school. Congrats on getting in, that's a great feeling for sure. And, as bad as you might find the girls there, realize that they are far better than what I'm dealing with.
