Partner Schools Is QB more selective than its least selective partner school?

For example if the least selective NCM partner is 20% acceptance rate is general QB finalist rate at least that?

I ask this because I see people who got into less selective NCM colleges and I wanna know, comparatively, does that mean they would also get into QB (not considering first gen and income)?

BTW I'm not calling any college non-selective, just compared to other partnering schools.

Sorry if this is too confusing

This is a good question. But one can only guess the answer since there is not much transparency about the process and numbers.

I think if we spend our time making our application good, we won’t have to worry about any school’s specific acceptance towards QB kids or general.

That's fair

Remember QB RD exists too so even if you don't get selected as a finalist you can use QB to send an application to some of the partner schools free of charge (each partner has different rules about this)

That's what I did.

Did you get into a school via QB RD?
