<p>SholtoPinn, I remember applying to the QuestBridge College Prep in junior year, not getting in, then applying to college regular decision senior year and getting into many of them, so I don’t know if one way is actually any easier than the other ;). There was also a poster on CC who got into her non-binding QB top choice, then opted instead to go to another, equally selective college to which she was accepted RD.</p>
