Tell me about Boston

<p>Seriously though folks, I'm only kidding.</p>

<p>But "urban mecca"...dude what?!? No validity within the English language whatsoever.</p>

<p>illmatic, your response was actually pretty funny... lol. You're won me over, despite the fact that your sarcasm doesn't always translate too well in your posts.</p>

<p>My (sincere) question: despite that fact that you seem to like getting a rise out of people, why do you try to antagonize other posters on these boards? Since you're looking for transfer advice, you might want to tone it down a little bit. People would be much more willing to help you. I'm not being hostile, here - just curious.</p>

<p>Also, one final note - "urban mecca" is a commonly used phrase in the English language. I even googled it for you because I'm awesome like that.</p>

<p>"urban mecca" eh?</p>

<p>Well, OK.</p>

<p>I just like to spice up these forums a little bit sometimes. Mostly my posts are aimed at trying to hell people but I think its a nice change of pace to do something different. I just hope I didn't arose the hatred and scorn of too many people.</p>

<p>Do you go to Georgetown? I know I'm a double transfer, but I also have a very compelling reason for wanting Georgetown (it has the best Arabic program in the Western Hemisphere). I also wrote some great essays on how I wanted to transfer and got great rec's. I had a 3.7 at my state school...I know its a tad low but I more than made up for it with the rest of my application</p>

<p>Is there any advice you can give me that might help? Perhaps advice regarding the interviews? Anything, Georgetown is the only school in the country with an intensive Arabic program and its my only choice. Maybe you could put in a good word for me :)</p>

<p>I do go to Georgetown - I'm actually a transfer student, as well. Since this IS a Tufts forum, I'll PM you. :)</p>

<p>Alright, than you so much :)</p>

<p>Any information you could give me would be most dearly appreciated.</p>
