The mode was, I believe, 5, with most people clustered in the 3-5 correct range. If the group winners faced off against each other based on most applications submitted, South Korea would defeat Mexico in the World Cup Challenge final. Overall this year, we received nearly 2500 applications from abroad from more than 100 countries. More statistics about this years admissions coming soon!
