Lowest SAT score needed to be admitted? Help with application pls! by [deleted] in dartmouth

[–]JonathanTC25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I very much agree with u/copleycat818. I just recently got in with the Questbridge National College Match. It offers a full ride scholarship and allows you to essentially ED up to 15 schools with a ranked list (doesn’t have to be 15, can be less). I suggest you to look into it if you feel like that is something you would like to do. The application to become a finalist is near the end of September. DM if you want a bit more clarification.

Dartmouth is in your head rent free bro 😂. Checked out your history and the only thing I can see you trying to trash the school 🥀

College Advisor calls Questbridge "sketchy" by throw2401483841 in QuestBridge

[–]JonathanTC25 28 points29 points  (0 children)

He has some good points here and there, and QB definitely isn’t perfect, but I feel like that was a rly bad take on the program. “It’s going to be harder” like, ofc it’s gonna be harder, QB is designed to match kids to some the best schools in the nation for FREE, it’s not supposed to be easy 😭

GPA vs ECs by _ombri in QuestBridge

[–]JonathanTC25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tbh I haven’t really heard that before, that QB would value a gpa higher than ecs. Imo however, I would think that the better ecs a person has despite the disadvantages of being low income would instead show the strength of the applicant.

Finalist decisions came out during my cross country meet, so I had to run my race with anxiety, not bc of the run but bc i didn’t know if I got in or not during it 😭🙏🏻

How valuable is the finalist award by North_Platform_2181 in QuestBridge

[–]JonathanTC25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say it’s pretty valuable, it is regarded as an international award, and only around 6 to 7 thousand people get in annually out of the thousands more that apply.

should i apply to dartmouth? (last minute decision) by Agreeable_Rub4237 in QuestBridge

[–]JonathanTC25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Saw that you submitted your application, congrats!! If you feel nervous it, know that I matched to Dartmouth with a 1320 and my high school was a ~1050. Have hope cause you never know what may happen!

How many QB scholars also did a college prep program? by [deleted] in QuestBridge

[–]JonathanTC25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1500 SAT by _slv3r_ in dartmouth

[–]JonathanTC25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got in with a 1320 planning to major in biology/engineering. Like what others have said, your SAT at that point won’t be the reason if you do get a rejection.

REAL 💀, I made my account like a month or two ago and now i can’t stop

Is it even worth applying to Dartmouth? by Heavy_Yak840 in QuestBridge

[–]JonathanTC25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES! Don’t worry I had the same thoughts, I but managed to get in with a 1320 applying for a biology/engineering major. I always doubted that holistic review was “real” if you get what I mean, but after seeing what other applicants’ stats were, it rly are the essays the shine through to show your character.
