Hi everyone,
I am gonna be a freshman in Georgia Tech this fall with major biomed eng. I am from hong kong so I am international.
1. I heard that being in eng. is hard to get a high GPA so it affects your acceptance chance. Is that true? Do adcoms do look at the fact that you are in a more rigorous major?
2. If I really do want to be a dentist (which I recently considering), should I change my major so I can get a high GPA? (as you all know, Georgia Tech eng.'s programs are pretty competetive)
3. I have finished AP Physics B, Calculus BC, Chemistry, Biology and Computer Science A (scores 4 and 5). I therefore have covered some courses in college. Should I skip them or retake them?
4. do I have to do really well to get into dental school since I am international?
Thank you so much for y'all advise. Greatly appearciate.
