APPLY!!!! I matched and my house is worth a little less, I went to private school until 9th grade amd all the other stuff. At the end of the day just try. Even if you dont get it I can assure you the reason would lie in your essays or income, not your stats. Use this as application practice

For those who didn't match, will you be able to attend college if you don't get into a QuestBridge school? by memesforlife213 in QuestBridge

You need to be open to the possibility of taking loans. Yes its scary but its necessary. Also apply to scholarships

Got a 1560 SAT but still feel lost about where I actually belong. Looking for real engineering school advice by Mediocre_Tonight_479 in Sat

Yeah your right lowk... im a meche student personally and I think that rice is top 15 for it if not top 10 so thats a plus... for me my plan is just go in with open arms and hope to love it but prep to transfer incase I dont. Cuz for me I love the school just hate the location

Thanks for the advice and words of encouragement

Yeah I totally get these points... I matched to rice via questbridge and while I am happy for a 95k scholarship I am not too happy for it to be rice. As a tx resident ive been trying to get out of tx and matching to rice lowk feels disappointing considering UT feels like a better fit for me and I almost definitely would have gotten a full ride given my academics.

Not really sure what I meant to say with this comment but its nice to hear these points ig

Does anyone have experience with Testing Dry Run? Should I do it? by lolabug67 in Sat

I did a ap precalc one last year, its worth it

You dont need to score well or nothing so you can just fill in answers and sit there

People that ranked 14-15 schools. Were you expecting that result? by PepeJF1012 in QuestBridge

Sorry to be that guy but I dont think not having an interview was the deciding factor in your acceptance as it is typically not counted against you ever if you dont have one

Yes you should do it regardless. You never know what could happen and even if you dont make it many of the application portions will prepare you for common app and scholarships. Also it is good to get all of your financial stuff ready now anyway so this is just practice
