<p>Hey guys,
congrats to every senior who got into colleges this week. It's been an arduous process for you guys and as a second-semester junior, I'm sweltering right now :(</p>
<p>My family income is about 16,000 so I'm pretty sure that I have an EFC of 0 but does this actually give me an advantage in the college match?</p>
<p>I'm still debating whether or not to apply Early Decision to Cornell or do the Collegematch through Questbridge (in the tentative hopes that I may become a finalist). </p>
<p>To be honest, I would just like to have a good school under my belt before january. I just want to get into a decent school early and enjoy the second semester of my senior year. But I've heard that collegematch is really rare and difficult. </p>
<p>Some questbridge schools only take students with an EFC of 0 through the match. Does this mean that I have a leg up in the match and should consider doing the match instead of ED?</p>
<p>Which schools specifically take only 0 EFC besides yale and brown? </p>
<p>Thanks alot for the input; I really appreciate it!</p>
<p>P.S. Do collegematch recipients have higher overall stats than RD questbridge recipients?</p>
