Didn't bring my laptop for DAP 1 💔

Yeah so I saw that there was an email but I scrolled past it because I thought it was the simple reminder to bring an ID and stuff. Then when we were at like hour 3 they told us to get out our laptops and i had to write on my phone like a dumbass 💔

Disqualification Consequences

Hi.

I was lucky enough to be nominated, and I'm desperate to go to *any* college whatsoever; as long as I'm getting a degree that's great. However, I'm also considering QuestBridge, and of the three universities that Posse can fund full-tuition for in my area (Atlanta), QuestBridge has the possibility to fund full-ride. As such, I'm leaning heavily towards not continuing with Posse, but I've already RSVP'd for the first interview. I know that I'd be disqualified if I fail to attend, but is there anything more to that? By that I mean, a blacklist or something that will follow me as I apply for scholarships and colleges.

I'd hate to sound ungrateful here because I'm not, really! It's amazing to have been nominated in the first place, and I'm glad I've gotten this far!! I'm just not sure if it's the best course of action for me. For context, I'm interested in a bachelor's in mechanical engineering and the universities available to me through Posse are Vanderbilt, Boston, and George Washington; Vanderbilt and Boston are both fully funded by QuestBridge.

Writing Requirements

Does anyone know what the exact questions are for the writing requirements (both to apply and during DAP)? I have read that during DAP there are some live writing exercises. Anyone have examples from previous years?
