SURVIVOR Contestant You are Most Like: I'm probably somewhere between Eliza and Sophie personality-wise, but I want to play like Cochran did on Caramoan.

Why You Think You Will Be The Sole SURVIVOR: I've seen enough of the show to know what I need to do and not do in order to get to the end, and I'll be binge-watching whatever I haven't seen in the days leading up to the game.
