Official Questbridge National College Match 2010-2011

<p>I actually have a similar problem. I took the SAT twice, one in May, and the other in November (I chose to take the SAT II in Lit and Chem in October). So the colleges will only be getting my first SAT score, which isn’t bad, but it isn’t where I want it to be. I really think I did better the second time.</p>

<p>Was the Math II you took a req. for the college? If so, then you really SHOULD email the officers; perhaps calling them might provide instant gratification and take a load off your shoulders. lol</p>

<p>I emailed the QB guy for Columbia yesterday, but I doubt he’ll actually return my email :\ I’m having my mom call while I’m in school tomorrow, so I’ll let you guys know how it works out. :)</p>

<p>@aerolite23 - You only have to pay to send scores if you don’t get fee waivers for the SAT, no? I haven’t had to pay for any yet :smiley: The CSS pricing is pretty unreasonable, though…</p>

<p>ohhh, if you would tell me what they said, that would be greatly appreciated TieIAm! no, my colleges dont make math 2 a req., but its strongly recommended. though, i took 2 other subject tests already. this nov. was my first time taking math 2. i emailed the colleges though. if anything, i think i do have to pay to send the scores sooner-and i dont think i would do that =\ so pricey. i guess theres really nothing to do now, unless they say its ok that the scores are sent by the 23rd.</p>

<p>Fifteen more days, although the wait is drawing to a close, my anxiety only heightens. If only I could pretend that I was already rejected, so I could move on, yet I still have hope in that dismal percentage of Match recipients. How are you doing? And how is everyone passing by the time?</p>

<p>@ topramennbaklava </p>

<p>chill the **** out. go outside more pl0x. </p>

<p>even if we aren’t matched in the first round, we most likely will be in the second round. just calm down. kthxbai.</p>

<p>is it alright if i forgot to actually put “questbridge finalist” under the awards section of the common app? i mean obviously the schools i ranked know im a finalist right</p>

I’ve been feeling the exact same way. Even though I keep busy, the fact that the date is coming near is in the back of my mind like 24/7. IDK how we aren’t all kind of freaking out about this more lol we gotta stay hopeful, despite the slim chances</p>

<p>… due before nov 17 or on nov 17th?</p>

<p>@rooftopz If you are sending them by email or by fax then sending them on the 17th is fine.</p>

<p>@u2tiffanyxo I would have replied sooner, but my mom forgot to actually call the guy xD She called today, and he said that in the system, we aren’t actually ED applicants, so we won’t actually be able to view our application status until the regular decision students are. -___- He was, however, able to tell her what he could see that I had submitted, and so far I’m up to date! Yay! lol</p>

<p>@rooftopz I submitted the Common App Nov 1st @ 11:57pm. I think you’re good for submitting it on the 17th haha</p>

<p>Is anyone applying to Yale under QB? Is there a way for us to view our app status? They gave us a Yale ID a while back, but I haven’t done anything with it except write it on the forms…</p>

<p>@TieIAm it is my understanding that, as we are not technically ED applicants, we can’t view our application status :(</p>

<p>does anyone have any tips for dealing with the annoying cycle of hope/fear/anxiety/etc. that waiting for Dec. 1 brings?</p>

<p>Hey guys, are any of you applying to USC via Questbridge? And if so, are you forwarding your QB app or submitting the USC application? </p>

<p>@ HalcyonEra: If you’re a Harry Potter fan, I guess you could go watch that (if you haven’t already) :)</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>In all seriousness, I would probably say enjoy your Thanksgiving and go on CC less. Distract yourself with company, a good book, etc. If you’re feeling like a workaholic you could try finishing your other applications if you’ve not done so already. </p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I worked hard for a quality QuestBridge application so I think I’ll just forward that to USC instead of filling their own app.</p>

<p>@ gaginang
I think I’m going to do the same for most of the colleges. :smiley: </p>

<p>About ten more days!</p>

<p>Anyone applying for any UC’s? We can right?</p>

<p>@ gadgor
Yeah we can and I’ve already done so :slight_smile:
Are you?</p>

<p>@SwimmingChicken
@gadgor</p>

<p>yea im applying to uc’s also. did you guys put questbridge finalist as an award in the uc app?</p>

<p>@chicken
Yeah I am. I just need to touch up my essays.</p>

<p>@aerolite
Yeah I did.</p>

<p>Did you guys make up entirely new essays for the essay prompts or did you tweak up the essays you’ve already written?</p>

<p>@ aerolite23
Yep, I did haha</p>

<p>@ gadgor
I modified the ones I used for QB since I spent a lot of time on them :D</p>

<p>I modified as well. :P</p>

<p>Anybody willing to share what colleges they ranked?</p>
