    Your grades are important now because you want to get into a great school,
    not just a good school. Look for great schools in the US for math programs,
    for business programs . . . but target math. Once in college, you work for
    great grades not average grades. The top firms want to hire the top
    students from the top schools.

    Chicago are the major homes but you may choose other locations for related
    industries like alternative investment firms, private equity and the like.
    Remember. Great grades from great schools.

    How about:
    1. “I would not. I would play safe, stay still, and try to escape”. Or try
    a funny answer “With a Bull”.
    2. “Using a sniper with one shot to its heart. It will be quick death, and
    most importantly I will remain anonymous.”
