Honestly, yeah it IS a lot of work. Yes you can use letters of rec from senior year and the up to the october SAT date of senior year for the application - I did both and became a finalist.

Other perks - literally ANY other scholarship you apply for uses similar essays. Copy, Paste, Done. Literally any supplement uses similar essay topics too. Copy, Paste, Done. Colleges recommend you “recycle” the essays for their supplements (aka copy paste). Think I’m kidding? Yale sent me an email telling me to do so.

You have several college applications DONE. completely. It feels great knowing you’ve got half or all of them in the bag two months before anyone else aka more time to study for those intensive AP classes.

There are several student questbridge facebook groups - TALK ABOUT SUPPORT!!

My only concern is if your family EFC isnt 0 or very close to it, you most likely won’t get matched. RD is great as you mentioned, but its sort of a bummer if you know you’ll already not get matched.
