Advice from people who went to prestigious boarding schools?

I agree with others you already have everything academically that you need to start or else you would not have been chosen. It’s more a matter of thinking what you want out of it. Looking back 4 years from now, who do you hope to see looking back at you in the mirror? One thing for certain, you don’t want to put yourself in a situation where you’ll be asked to leave (cheating, substance abuse, senior salute etc.).
