<p>The fee waiver assistance alone should be enough reason for you to consider QB worth it, however there are many more reasons to utilize the Match program.</p>

<p>Even if you had the stats, they wouldn’t tell you what you wanted to know, as the schools that utilize QB use holistic admissions, not merely stat based as some (state) schools would.</p>

<p>My daughter was a Match recipient several years ago and is attending what was her #1 school. One huge benefit was that she sailed through her senior year of HS without the stress of college admissions lingering. Even if you are not a match recipient, you will have a “leg up and put into a special pile” according to Dean Tom Parker of Amherst College (I am paraphrasing, his quote used to be on the QB website before they redid it.) Applying through QB also insures that you are on top of things and not waiting till the last minute for your essays to be done, as you will see many of your classmates doing.</p>
