<p>when they ask the personal questions about us (favorite book, favorite movie, etc.), would I seem like a desperate, college obsessed loser if I put collegeconfidential? I dont want to come off as if I spend all my time thinking about how to get into college, but this is basically the only website I ever go to. Did any of you former princeton applicants put down CC, and are any current prospective students planning to put it down?</p>
<p>hmm, I actually avoided putting that down but I really don't think it can have that much of an impact. don't sweat it too much. </p>
<p>:p this thread reminds me of how I stuck a little picture of nemo onto that page for my favorite movie....then for the next two weeks I was like "OMGAWDWHATWASI THINKING".</p>
<p>well its better not to lie i think..just incase they ask you about it in an alumni interview or something..that would be pretty bad</p>
<p>Yeah, you could put CC down as your favorite website if it's your absolute favorite on the entire world wide web. :p But if you have a close second favorite that reveals more about your intersts then maybe think about put that down.</p>
<p>Mea, a nemo photo? - wow, you are brave!!!!</p>
<p>eh it doesn't make a difference. I put CC down myself :)</p>
<p>It doesn't matter...but remeber, they can probably identify you by your posts, so be careful</p>
<p>hm, you know i remember there being a long thread around the time of this year's application rush on this part of the app. some of the answers were interesting. an archive hunt should find it.</p>
<p>This is exactly what I wrote:</p>
<p>"Yahoo.com! It's got everything!"</p>
<p>yeah if you post stats especially they can track you down if your specific enough with your EC's so if you don't want that happening, I'd not put it :) If I was applying to p-ton I'd put down bbc. Seriously what's better than a site with 2.5 million webpages</p>
<p>HAHA...I think I put down peanuts.com, because I like the comic strip...</p>
<p>what about for your favorite recording? can i put why by jadakiss?
does this stuff even matter that much? I don't think it matters a whole lot...right? lol</p>
<p>I don't think it matters much at all. Just be honest, and don't worry about impressing them.</p>
<p>I tried to be a pompous ass and put something like "The Economist."</p>
<p>Don't do that though. Put something cool. Just don't push the limits like playboy.com or anything.</p>
<p>haha, yeah I was thinking about what would hapen if someone put down a porn site as their favorite, even thoug it's probably true in many cases.</p>
<p>wait whats wrong with the economist??
its a pretty good source of news...not my absolute fav tho</p>
<p>have you seen that "support art in our kids' lives commercial" where the girl asks her dad to read the economist as a bedtime story. i liked that commercial.</p>
<p>hahaha. a porn site. oh man. that's hilarious. I can just imagine it in my head when the adcoms read it</p>
<p>I think you should put something quirky if you have a quirky side.
I put down something really boring like travel.com but if I could go back and do it again I'd put either</p>
