<p>I am a Questbridge Finalist. It never ceases to baffle me for I'm not the best student around. I remain in the top 7% of my class, but I chock it up to the fact that it's a class of 800 kids. I mean, being in that high of a percentile when I got a C in AP Physics and Pre-Calculus? It seems ludicrous to begin thinking highly of myself just because I'm in that select few. I do relatively well when it comes to English and other areas of the humanities field and have strong extracurricular activities, however, I GOT A C IN TWO CLASSES! I guess what I'm trying to ask is that, how much leverage does Questbridge give me, including schools not partnered with the program? I'm planning on applying to Yale, Stanford, UPenn, Columbia, UChicago, Trinity, and Pomona through Questbridge, as well as NYU, UCLA, UCSD, UCI, UCSantaBarbara, USC (since apparently their film school is not included in the Questbridge program), and Chapman ('s Dodge Film School). </p>
<p>Can someone please answer? I'm done scouring for a thread with a similar purpose.</p>
