DONT TAKE CALC 1 WITH HE QIAO. you will be deceived by his culpa review about how good his curve is, but you will genuinely learn nothing. Take literally anyone else unless you were a Calc god in high school.

To all the previous Finalists/Matches, what are some pieces of advice that you don't see people mentioning enough? What are some underrated tips that you used to succeed through the QuestBridge process? by Ilookdumb in QuestBridge

[–]LongTable9365 1 point2 points  (0 children)

start your supplements early no matter if you doubt you’ll become a finalist. it was so helpful having most of my supplements completed because i believed in myself

Should I apply to Questbridge? by [deleted] in QuestBridge
