     What did you learn about the Supreme Court that you didn't already know?

       I was not aware of, at times, it taking months for the Supreme Court to reach a decision due to revisions and change of opinions.

     What is the most important take-away point about the Supreme Court?

      The Supreme Court is wholly dedicated to upholding the Constitution, the nine justices having extensive deliberation about rulings.

     What was the most surprising thing you learned?  

       The most surprising thing I learned is the Supreme Court has only had around 100 justices throughout American history, as well as receiving around 7000 cases per year.

     How did the video change the way you thought of the Supreme Court?

     Learning about the independence of the justices as well as equal opportunity for petitions has made me more interested in learning about the Supreme Court's process and Constitutional values.
