<p>Add yourself :) (Use CC alias to make things easier.)</p>

<p>I thought it'd be interesting to see where we all are.</p>

<p>Yes, I saw it on the Columbia board x}</p>

<p>good thinking ;)</p>

<p>no one from West Coast yet?</p>

<p>i bet most (over 50%) of the people here applying ED would be from DC-Boston Megalopolis</p>

<p>Boswash... It even has a name. I'm not from there, and that should help me. I hope... but probably not...</p>

<p>Good idea! I'm from Oregon, which will help a little, but looking at last year's ED thread there were two people from Oregon with great stats and it was 0 for 2 on acceptances.</p>

<p>there are four people who live so close to me that you can't tell the three of us apart!!</p>

<p>WHY did so many people from Northern VA and DC area had to apply ED to Princeton?</p>

<p>I hope they don't emphasize geographic diversity too much</p>

<p>P.S. my prediction about BosWash was true :)</p>

<p>Well, first one on there from my state anyway, what's wrong with the south?</p>

<p>Unfortunatley Princeton isn't the most northern of the southern clleges anymore. You've got Vandy, Duke, and Virginia and of course Auburn! lol... I'm sure soem more will be coming along though.</p>

<p>Hopkins anyone? MD is a southern state (technically)</p>

<p>The rest of my school is going there, free for Baltimore City Public school kids</p>

<p>Now if they could only give us toilet paper...</p>

<p>JHU is free for you? Hmm... I get to free years at Allegheny County Community College because of my GPA, but I'm not to into that.. lol..</p>

<p>sorry cityknight, but even though md is geographically southern, i still think yuppie northeast when it comes to mind</p>

<p>here in Northern Virginia most people deny that we are southern.</p>

<p>our culture might not be southern anymore, but when schools close after couple inches of snow it makes me wonder.</p>

<p>I think it the dependence on Federal city that makes Northern Virginia seem almost northern. The land is southern, but the culture is fading with the influx of yankees. It is sad... I mean you would think the yankees could drive in snow...</p>

<p>yeah dude, i have problems labeling virginia as southern as well...historically it was a southern colony and confederate state, but i still picture the state with a more northern mentality</p>

<p>the rest of the state definitely southern</p>

<p>Northern Virginia is pretty small part of the state. We are DC without the drugs and violence....and with LOTS of money.</p>

<p>btw....BosWash has so far about 75% of people on the map</p>

<p>Overall, the distinctions bewteen North and South are fading as people are moving every which way. I mean my family moved north actually. We had lived in Alabama since the dawn of time practically, but now I'm living north of the Mason-Dixon line. But there is one thing that seperates me from my neighbors: three ancestors at Gettysburg wore Grey and two fell.</p>

<p>Yeh, Southern Viriginia is very southern still. Ever been to Danville? lol... And Northern Viriginia is nicer than the city. I've got an uncle in the area and it isn't a bad place to raise a family, but it isn't really southern anymore. It is American.</p>

<p>Born in Kentucky, raised in a really jewish (dads palestinian, moms a lutheran pastor) private school on scholarship and now applying to princeton from an inner city public school, I suppose I can say I'm not sure what I am...</p>

<p>American?</p>

<p>I, a guy from Germany and another one from Singapore seems to be the only international in this forum so far. :p</p>

<p>trust me, there are a lot more internationals applying ED.</p>
