<p>pigs: your mistaken as to the purpose of QB. It’s a FANTASTIC vehicle for top performing kids from impoverished backgrounds to be matched with some of the best colleges in America. Without QB, many of these kids would not have applied to anywhere near the types of schools that participate in QB. For the college participants, they benefit as well. Since the QB application process is frankly, more rigorous than Yale’s admissions package, QB removes some of the hesitancy for schools like Yale in offering admissions.</p>
<p>FYI: even those that weren’t offered match thru QB with Yale, Yale still courted those who had been identified through QB and ended up making a good number of admit offers through RD to QB finalists who originally didn’t match Yale.</p>
<p>I recruit in some underserved schools and I’m PREACHING to the GCs to get QB into their kids’ minds. It’s a tool that I know Yale values greatly.</p>
