California... a Geographic Minority?

<p>^ Yes, I hear that all the time. Unfortunately my job in Minnesota isn’t close enough to the state line to allow us to relocate to South Dakota or North Dakota. Minnesotans are “underrepresented” at some Northeastern LACs but not at the Ivies or a lot of other top schools, and not at top West Coast schools. I figure a SD or ND address would be worth at least the equivalent of a 50-point boost on D’s SAT scores. Maybe more. MT, WY, ID, and AK are good, too.</p>
