<p>Unless you are in somewhere in the rural west like Idaho or Montana or a very poor place in the rural South, there is nothing that will make you stand out in Princeton admissions, meaning that you are almost assured rejected even with decent scores. If you are near Princeton, I still do not think you are ranked high enough to be accepted on being a local.</p>
