    SAT Scores

    No I don't think it's worth studying and putting in the hours to study for the SAT to increase your already decent score. I took the SAT four times; first scored a 1020 and then my highest was an 1090. Even then, I still got my nomination and my appointment. Let's be honest– it's extremely...

    CORTRAMID Marine Week Experience

    Rushed Leadership & ECs

So far, I have been contempt with the work that I have accomplished, and I feel strongly that I...
