Comments and Reviews
Tbh the interviewer told me she wanted to get an interviewee into Yale (kinda weird but I wasn't going to fight it). All of the questions were super fun. What would you take to a desert island? What books would you like to read? We talked about the impact of raising the drinking age on frat culture, which felt random but it was a lot of fun.

I mentioned that I was raised by a single mom (but from our family salary they could probably tell we were solidly middle class to upper middle class) and the Duke interviewer seemed to extrapolate that I came from some sort of disadvantaged background and overcame obstacles. I tried to correct that, but I was honest the whole interview and couldn't help where her mind went. She really liked talking to me though.
I made a video for Brown. It displayed the diversity of my interests because of the open curriculum.
I received a full scholarship. I think the school really wanted me to come. It was basically me saying, "I want to research voting behaviors," and them listing all the different research institutes, or opportunities in D.C. Really chill.
I received $10k/year merit scholarship. I also did a video for UChicago, which ended up being super quirky.
