No it's not. I'm not even sure the application is up yet. Here is the QB home page. Read EVERYTHING. The deadline won't be until the end of September, but you will need to start it ASAP as it is very extensive.

@BlackRose21: how can someone start on the essays early? i tried asking about previous essay questions on this thread but the answerer implied that questions change every year. does anyone remember old essay questions or a gist of the past essays?

Oh wait. Nevermind. I think they just updated the website. Sadly, they're not letting you retake the SAT this year. The last test date they are accepting is June 6, which already passed. Oh god...I'm screwed.

oh gosh are you serious! ugh. Yeah I know the questions are not up yet but I thought someone said they stay pretty consistent. If the SAT ting is true I'm screwed, I haven't taken my SAT subject tests yet and I know a lot of schools need that for admissions. Where on the site did you find that?

No I'm pretty sure that it works like this...

Last SAT you can take:
-CollegeMatch Round: October
-Regular Decision Round: December

I asked QB about this in an email... they responded on July 1st, so this information is not outdated (or so I presume).

Correct me if I'm wrong / if the rules changed.

And our family's income is mid-$60,000, but it's only this year that's like that, and most of the years, it has been significantly lower. Does this lessen my chance?

go under the college math link then process review then selection criteria. Scroll down and you will see eligibility requirements and it's there


#

You must take the required standardized tests (the last accepted test date is June 6 for the SAT I or II, and June 13 for the ACT) and send your scores to QuestBridge as well as the colleges you are interested in to qualify for the College Match process. Any testing done after these dates will only be considered in the Regular Decision process.
