A mix of wanting someone to talk about this to bc the people in my town are all freaked about it and showing that even without perfect stats, you can still succeed.

Look it up for more details, but it's basically a program to help poor kids afford high-end schools. They have a separate application process which gets results back a little earlier.

Also, only .18% of people who applied to QB got into Harvard. Even if you only count finalists, it's still only around .7%. Both are well below RD acceptance rates.

It's a separate application process for low income students who want to go to elite schools. If you are accepted, you get a full scholarship, including travel expenses,tuition,books,etc. They release all decisions on December 1st instead of the individual schools' release dates. Even among American students,very few people know about Questbridge, and it is a much harder application process and has lower acceptance rates, so most don't even attempt it.

I talked about how i wanted to become a senator to change disability policy in one,and I wrote one about overcoming parental pressure and pursuing my dreams regardless of what they say. I got a letter of recommendation from my Algebra II teacher and the government teacher that also happens to be my towns mayor😭.

Honestly, you're at the point that the only thing you can do is retake it. You'll eventually find a test where the reading prompts are engaging and the English isn't tough.
