<p>I think applicannot(or maybe it was a different poster) knows someone working for Questbridge this year. I wonder if he/she could find out how many finalist there are.</p>
<p>[2005-08</a> National College Match Program Results - Acceptance Rates](<a href=“http://www.questbridge.org/cmp/chances.html]2005-08”>http://www.questbridge.org/cmp/chances.html)</p>
<p>I see that the percentage of finalists getting matched increases every year. Hopefully, it still increases this year despite the economy.</p>
<p>im failing school and life…</p>
<p>My son and I were in your place- waiting for the Dec 1st announcement, scrambling to get all documentation in and waiting, waiting, waiting. It is a nerve-wrecking but exciting time for you all. </p>
<p>The next part of his story is that he wasn’t matched but went on to apply to several QB schools using his QB application. He applied to other schools too and YES listed that he was a QB finalist as a National Honor. It is a great honor to be named a finalist in a National Scholarship program. Don’t ever forget it! </p>
<p>In the end, he was accepted into a QB school (Rice) and a few others with GREAT financial aid and scholarship packages. After a lot of deliberation he chose Rice and is having an awesome freshman year. Being a QB finalist puts you so far ahead of other seniors. Remember that on Dec. 1! If you don’t get matched that means you have more work ahead of you. The end result will be worth it.</p>
<p>I do know a woman who is working at QuestBridge this year. However, our relationship is personal and I am not sure what the protocol is for working at QuestBridge and knowing a QB finalist. I don’t want her to nor feel pressured to bend the rules, if there are any and whatever they are. Any information I’ve gotten from her has been given freely, so I don’t want to push it. I’m hoping to hear from her on December 1st, but until then I’m lying pretty low. Sorry guys.</p>
<p>I don’t know whether to feel blessed or cursed; I just found out that, for one of my classes, we are going to be in the computer lab on Dec. 1. This class takes place around 1ish and I know that I will not be able to concentrate at all. I will probably be checking my email every five seconds and then coming here to see if anyone has gotten their notification yet! That day willl be the most stressful day of my life! </p>
<p>But if I don’t get matched, I am in the process of figuring out the regular decision process with QB and filling out my additional materials. I also need to start working on what safeties I have.</p>
<p>2 weeks (: (:</p>
<p>And yet life goes on, haha. Things are moving at such a busy rate that it’ll be no time at all. Keep studying hard.</p>
<p>i understand but thanks anyway, applicannot. Anyone else sending in first quarter grades? It won’t hurt to try.</p>
<p>@nameofthegame: We aren’t on quarters, we’re on six weeks with three six weeks a semester. I don’t really want to send in all of my grades, especially when they’re all A’s anyway.</p>
<p>Stanford STILL hasn’t received my SSR.</p>
<p>and my guidance keeps on telling me no to worry.</p>
<p>WTGOD!</p>
<p>Is anyone else having problems with their PennKey? Everytime I try logging in, my pw never seems to work. I’ve had to reset my password ~5 times already.</p>
<p>What’s the policy with GPA does any one know? I heard two different ways - that you have to maintain the GPA you had when you submitted your application and also that you had to keep at least a 3.0. Does anyone know the correct answer. Of course, I’m not going to stop trying my hardest but I just need to know so I don’t go crazy if I don’t get my last year’s GPA.</p>
<p>^ really? I haven’t heard of any such policies</p>
<p>PENN APPLICANTS: does it show that your transcript was received? mine still says “N”. Who thinks I should call Penn tomorrow?</p>
<p>My senior year grades are HORRIBLE</p>
<p>@flyingllama</p>
<p>I think you should call, because Penn says that they received my transcript. Better to be careful than be sorry :)</p>
<p>Ahhhh Ok I’ll call them… but in the morning right? East coast time difference + school makes this impractical… :[</p>
<p>Maybe it got lost in the mail?</p>
<p>Anyone else want to share how their transcript is doing with Penn?</p>
<p>STANFORD PPL: what’s are you statuses on transcripts? mine says not processed, but I sent it with the common app online. even Duke has my transcript (and i applied to Duke similarly). How could Stanford have my SSR but not my transcript?? doesn’t make any sense.</p>
<p>Who thinks I should call Stanford? 
:/</p>
<p>stanford has my transcript but not the SSR. i’m so confused…</p>
<p>UPenn sent me myWharton EMBA materials for business stuff —but im not doing business…what does that mean? did anybody get the email too? i applied to arts and sciences— and also did anyone get a princeton/upenn/columbia/brown interview?</p>
