I am starting a forum for people who are applying for the College Prep Scholars Program this year.
I’m also applying for the program this year as well
Applying for Questbridge as well!
Is anyone applying to the National College Match as well
If I get into Prep Scholars, I will definitely apply to NCM. Otherwise I’m unsure.
Yeah I’m applying for the NCM when the time comes, even if I don’t become a college prep scholar
Me, too
Have you started your application yet
I’m applying to both
How far are any of you into your applications?
Well I put in my personal info, My academic info, my recommender info and that is pretty much it
Hello! I will be applying as well. I’ve tried to fill out the “easy” parts of the app but it still takes a considerable amount of time!!
Also, does anyone know for the test scores section if you have to send in ALL scores you’ve taken? I took a subject test but didn’t do so well and was thinking of not reporting it, but on the SAT score report, there’s a page that has all the tests you’ve taken and the results. So, QB will see my poor SAT II regardless.
@kkayli27 I’m sure you don’t have to send in ALL scores, but it is more advantageous (as long as scores are good, obviously).
Regarding SAT score report: are you sure there isn’t a way to get a report that only shows the subject test? I haven’t taken the SAT so can’t give you an answer myself but it seems likely that there is an option to only send certain SATs/SAT IIs.
@sudania no, each test you take has its own score report, but the last page of that report lists every CB test you’ve taken, the date, and the score. I was thinking of maybe omitting that last page, but don’t want to mess anything up. Thanks for the help though!
Has anyone picked recommenders yet? I am between two teachers – one knows me quite well in and outside of class, but the other is known for writing very strong rec letters.
I picked my AP Biology Teacher because she already wrote my recommendation for MITES and SAMS
I chose a teacher of mine from freshman year that I’ve been a TA for my sophomore and currently my junior year. I’ve basically filled out almost all excluding income stuff because I’m waiting for my mom to file hers and my essays
Same for me, except I haven’t picked a recommender yet. When do you all plan on starting essays? I’m planning on having at least some of them done by the end of next week so I only have to edit.
@sudania I am starting to brainstorm ideas for each essay, but I’m having trouble with the biographical one. How do plan on doing (organizing) this essay?
I feel like I don’t have enough extenuating circumstances to write it.
how do you plan. Sorry!
