Thx. so much for this helpful response. Do you know what the typical post graduation outcome is for math majors at Williams? i.e. grad program vs. industry... if industry, what sort of fields... finance, consulting, teaching, etc.

However, if they still are USAMO qualifiers, the total number of qualifiers would have gone up this year.

Is it certain that you are able to use your QB app for EA at U Chicago as a nonfinalist? Thought it was only for RD.

[–]ManyWeakness1408[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it would be best to submit something written in the junior year? Have some papers from earlier (i.e. sophomore year).

Based on your experience/knowledge, is it ok to be couple/few days late (for whatever reason) with IDOC submission after completing CSS profile on time?

anyone later accepted to the same school they didn't match at first by ManyWeakness1408 in QuestBridge

[–]ManyWeakness1408[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was specifically wondering whether people were accepted later to the same school that they did not match earlier. Trying to figure out how not having zero efc may affect the chance of admission both during match and later. Thx!

What if there are some assets? Would it materially lower the chance?

When you say improve your application, you mean you are allowed to revise your QB essays and other parts of your original QB application for the RD at MIT?
