<p>I think if you are interested you just apply. There is no need to try to overanalyze to this extent. You are going to be viewed as a whole, not as parts. You are a QB finalist and that is a boost. You have an unusual backstory, very interesting. No one can take part of your application in isolation and tell you anything. If you are asking if being diverse in this way makes up for gpa and sat being too low I would say no. It can happen that they feel you are qualified or maybe not. I knew a QB student last cycle who was admitted with a lower test score. But the gpa was high and the program was very rigorous IB program. Not all QB applicants have the ability to get into the top most selective colleges and that’s fine because the partner schools have a range of selectivity while all being very excellent colleges.</p>
