Questbridge National College Match Finalists 2018-2019

It’s a banner that appears at the very top. I think it appears once you submit your RD form.

Good luck to everyone tomorrow ?

@Jakesmom1 Yeah, that box with Reg decision tracking requirements has been up for weeks now. Im pretty sure everyone has it. It’s the next indicated step, in preparation for not matching, which we should all be considering .But hallelujah if we all match!

thx for all the replies!!

Just a few more hours!

Best of luck to all my fellow finalists! Regardless of whether of not we match, we should be so proud of the work we have done and the obstacles we have overcome. And just remember, we’ll get a second shot through RD if we don’t match. Congrats to everyone, and I hope we all hear great news later today!

Why you think you were matched/not matched and general comments: Not sure but almost no extracurriculars and bad SAT II scores (esp for Caltech since you need 800’s in math II). Think regular decision might work out though.

GOOD LUCK to the unmatched and CONGRATS to those matched!!

Matched to NORTHWESTERN!! All that freaking out over simple emails, I am the epitome of endless paranoia!! :">
