Professor Huynh does not give a fuck.

He is a horrible teacher.
He gets mad at students who raise their hand and ask questions.
He hates students who don’t “just get math”.

His RateMyProfessor rating is 2.5/4, and would likely be lower if some stuck-up math nerds didn’t glaze his ass.

I DONT care if he is good at research— I’m paying thousands of dollars each month to deal with a man who acts like a child.

I asked questions in class, sent emails, and he didn’t bother to help me once besides telling me “just read the slides” in a very passive aggressive voice. I literally have to babysit this guy so he doesn’t have an autistic meltdown each time he might have to actually fucking teach something properly.

He threw a fit on the first day of class, and he always shits on the entire classroom when we can’t answer one of his fucking insane questions.

This man has ZERO plan, ZERO compassion, ZERO teaching ability, and fucking vibe-teaches every semester.

Georgia Tech’s teaching quality has truly gotten beyond fucking abysmal with this guy, and I’m sick of getting fucked over because of this bullshit.

I got waitlisted by gatech, but haven't received an email yet, and it's already mid May. Has anyone heard back? Are my chances reducing as the days are going on? I'm kinda worried

Due to a massive medical emergency for which I have documentation and my dad losing his job as a result, my grade in a dual enrollment course I am taking tanked, because I wasn’t able to complete exams by the online deadline. I contacted the Dean Of Students already as well as the dual enrollment counselor about the issue, but I was wondering if there’s anything else i should do right now to not get rescinded. I see that that course can be retaken during the summer or next semester for a new grade at the college but i’m extremely worried right now, if there’s any advice for who to contact or if i can retake the course over the summer i would appreciate it

So basically I am an engineering major who needed a humanities and took an LMC class and thought it would be easy. It was very time consuming, we constantly had to give speeches and write essays. Which is fine. But I was very sick this past semester and missed 9 days so my participation grade was going to be cooked. Luckily it all got Dean excused and the professor let me make them up by writing an essay on a reading for each day. Then my grade was about a 93 plus the 1.8% extra credit to final grade for an extra assignment I did. In the last day before final grades were do she put in the grade for the final speech which I got a 72% bringing my final grade with extra credit to an 89.55% I quickly scheduled a call to talk about it and she refused to change anything because my effort in class overall was not “A fitting.” Like even if I got an A she wasn’t going to let it happen because of that. My argument was that the final speech was a redo of a previous speech and the previous speeches rubric that she sent me was wrong. Meaning she gave me the wrong feedback and only gave me the right one at 10:30 pm the night before when I had already finished the speech and gotten ready for bed. I responded to the email saying thanks but just thought it would be some quick adjustment, not a completely different rubric. So when I gave my final speech tailored to the feedback of the wrong rubric it was unfair that she graded me for feedback from a different rubric. Additionally, she argued that I got the feedback in person 3 days in advance which is true but I can’t remember everything and everyone in class got to use the rubric. If the final grade had been a 75% I would have a 90% in the class. It just feels unfair because that whole final grading is messed up and she probably would have done it to other students but not me because I was out so much, BUT I was sick.

So my end question is: do I have a case to file a grievance?

I’m currently high school senior and I received transfer option from ga tech.

Instate w zell miller(tuition is free for public school)
Major: Psychology
Path: Premed

I am going to Georgia State University as a freshman this fall and I don’t know whether transferring to GT would be beneficial for me. I am also worried that GT rigor might lower my GPA.

Also I got a scholarship from GSU(3k per year for 4 yrs) + honors college

I‘m worried that prestige might affect my med school chances(but I heard that its not)

Another option: Apply to Emory as a transfer(not guaranteed) but not sure whether transfer students are eligible for free tuition(family income <200k). UGA is not an option for me because I can’t pay for dorms(I think transfer student at emory are not required to live on campus)

I’m a high school junior, I got a b in math 2551, I’m really upset because this is the first B I’ve gotten in high school, I want to ask whether this will have a big impact on my application to GT, I’m really worried about it😭

I am currently a high school senior deciding whether or not to go to tech for mechanical engineering. I was waitlisted but recently invited to a program where I would spend my freshmen year abroad and then attend tech. I’m looking for advice about how important freshmen year was both socially and career wise. I know first-years mostly take gen-ed courses, so the engineering coursework gap might be minor. But I’m more worried about missing early internship recruiting, research, and design teams

This is my first time ever posting on here so gulp! But basically, I got rejected from Georgia Tech as a first year student but was offered a pathway to enroll as a sophomore. The conditions that I currently know of are that I have to maintain a college gpa of 3.5 with no grades below a B. However, there was no mention of my second semester grades for my senior year of highschool. As of now it’s looking like I will for sure have one B (in an IB class if that matters) and potentially another one in French (also IB) if I don’t lock in. So! My question is will two Bs on my transcript compromise the pathway that was offered to me? And maybe some extra clarification of the requirements of the pathway if it seems like I misunderstood anything. Thanks guys!

Senior here. I got admitted to the Verto global pathway and I’ve accepted it, but my grades are slipping like crazy. I genuinely have a 20 in my religious classes (going through some personal issues with religion), and I just got a 75 on my AP chem test. My chem final grade should still be okay, like an A- probably, but my religious classes will definitely be Cs. I’m trying but it’s so hard to push through senior year. Im so burnt out.

If it matters, my more important classes are okay. I finished my dual enrollment discrete math, computer science, and world lit classes in the fall with As. I also just finished both my dual enrollment linear algebra and calc 3 classes with an A.

My major is Math + Computing by the way, but I don’t think it matters since I’ll declare it after the pathway is over.

Hi, I was recently given the opportunity to study abroad for a year and then transfer into Tech's Computer Science major.

The issue is that since I'm out of state, it will cost roughly $50k per year in student loans. My parents are willing to pay for $100k of that, but it will still leave with with $100k in debt all said and done.

I also have the safe option of just attending UofSC's Honors College and leaving with essentially no debt.

That being said, Tech ranks in the Top 5 for Computer Science.

So, for any students taking Computer Science at GaTech, what are your thoughts on debt and ROI?

Thanks!

I just finished distance math at Tech and I'm wondering if I could get the conditional pathway after the waitlist for GT closes assuming I'm not directly admitted

Does this method work? I am currently a dual-enrollment student at GSU. I send my AP scores to GSU, and they accept them for college credit. Then, I send my GSU transcript—which includes those converted AP credits like BIOL and MATH—to Georgia Tech. Even though Georgia Tech might not accept the original AP scores, will they accept them as transfer credits from GSU? would it be possible to send my AP score to gatech and my GSU transcript too so i can essentially double dip?

I am a senior in high school who was accepted into Georgia Tech fall 2026.

side note: i have taken like 5-6 dual classes at GSU already.

Hello, I'm an incoming freshman and was notified that I got into Tech Promise. From what I've seen on the website, there isn't much information and I wasn't able to go to the information session last month. How many people are accepted each year? I would love to hear about anything from Tech Promise students about their experience. Also, I'd love to connect with other freshmen who have gotten this.

Hi everyone, I am from BC, Canada, and I recently got accepted to Georgia Tech.

I was hoping I could get current students' advice and anecdotes on Georgia Tech and the CS program specifically, and just learn more about things such as internships and access to opportunities and the program and university.

I feel like websites such as the official Georgia Tech page and articles can only give me so much information, and I'd love to hear firsthand anecdotes from current students.

Hey everyone! So I recently committed to Georgia tech after getting in EA2 (Jan 30 ish). So I had all 90s first sem but my second sem grades are not looking too hot, with all of my final grades (avg of sem 1 + sem 2) ending in the B range EXCEPT AP lit for which I have a 65 right now. So my average is just shy of 80.

Should I be worried for being rescinded? And yes I know this is my work ethic etc etc I’ve been hella burnt out and I need to know if I should skip my internship to try to get my grade up. (Since my school lets seniors go out on internship for the final month and some kids stay back if they have bad grades but I lwk larped my way into a tuff internship I’m not tryna skip)

My friend has an F in an ela dual enrollment class that isnt required to graduate or anything but an F's and F. He's planning to transfer to mechanical engineering and retake the class he failed at UGA, so are his chances bad because of that F? I'm asking cuz im trynna transfer to aerospace and I have no idea what to tell him

GT 26 Fall regular transfer decisions are expected May 15 for non-pathway applicants. My current school's summer late add deadline is May 13, which is two days before.

I have two summer courses that GT's transfer equivalency table explicitly lists as non-transferable. Keeping them if I get admitted means nearly $7,000 in tuition for credits I can't use. Dropping them now and not getting in means I'm behind on required coursework at my current institution if I fail to transfer.

How would you handle this dilemma? Are there any portal myth signals or other ways to get a read on your decision 1-2 days before the official release?

Title. Should I transfer to Georgia Tech for AECT if I have a primary focus for games? This B.S. is relatively new, but does anyone have any guidance on how the program is?

I got into a desired VIP as a senior (first semester as a senior) with no experience with research/internships. I think that's amazing and am truly grateful since this will help me with gaining experience in my desired career field and may help my resume.

The problem is that there is a major time conflict with a course I need as a prerequisite for a lot of my future classes. The other classes are full, and the professor I got for this course is well-known as a good professor.

I would love advice on which route I should take, the VIP or the course I need as a prereq?

I transferred in, so the classes I have taken/need to take are a bit out of order from the standard Georgia Tech pathway.

Thanks!
