<p>Hey CC,</p>

<p>I'm currently at a fork in the rode where I'm not sure whether to match 6 colleges through the National Match program with QuestBridge, or to Penn ED directly. </p>

<p>Here are my stats:</p>

<p>2100+ SAT
Valedictorian, honing a great weighted gpa but a weak 3.5+ unweighted
Student Government President for two years
Founder and Editor in Chief of my school's newspaper
Other strong ECs
Executive job and a multimillion dollar company
Hispanic
First Generation
Family income under 20k
Amazing recommendations
Slightly-above-okay essays (for QB thus far, at least)
Average AP scores on nine tests
SAT IIs around 700
Won a scholarship from QB during junior year (one of four students out of 5,300)
1015 volunteer hours
etc.</p>

<p>Essentially, with this rough outline of my stats, should I try for QB, or do I have a solid enough chance to bet my admissions luck on Penn ED?</p>

<p>Cheers,
T.</p>

<p>Can you explain this “Executive job and a multimillion dollar company” a little more? Because you mayyyy be little over the incomes for QuestBridge…</p>
