<p>I was ranked nationally in Australia at chess but that wasn’t my clincher to getting into my picks. I just felt the interviews and essays were great for me.</p>
<p>I didn’t even study the SSATs and got 99% so any coaching etc is just a HUGE waste! </p>
<p>I talked about my passions for like 1-2 hours in every interview and we didn’t talk about me but my passions. We talked about politics for the entire Groton interview!</p>
