<p>What’s the percentage of gentiles at Brandeis?
Also, while I find Jewish women extremely attractive, I’ve heard that the ones at Brandeis are rather uneasy on the eyes. Any truth to that?</p>
<p>the exact number is not known; brandeis doesn't/can't ask. the common estimate is 55% Jewish.</p>
<p>Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. There are some pretty Jews and some not-so-pretty ones.</p>
<p>haha i've heard the following expression:
"One in ten jewish girls are ugly... the tenth goes to Brandeis"
Think whatever you want... but I'm going to brandeis and i would hate to think i'm one of those girls! ;)
Just look on facebook... there are plenty of pretty girls and jacked guys if you ask me.</p>
<p>linnea, you're right. i feel like 'deis students are getting more attractive as the years go on.</p>
<p>Let me put it this way. Most of the medical school applicants I met visiting schools (pre-meds everywhere often tend to be worse-looking than other college students on the whole) were much better-looking than even the average non-pre-med Brandeis student. From what I've seen sulsk is right that each incoming class is getting a little better, but my class ('06) is pretty hideous. </p>
<p>So dwincho, there is much, much truth to what you heard, although every now and then you see some good-looking people. And to be fair, it's not just the girls--the guys are just as bad, some people say even worse. </p>
<p>You can put whatever spin on this you like, but take random people off the street and show them Brandeis students, and they will not give the Brandeisians high ratings in the looks department. Not to say this is unexpected; look at most people's parents on move-in day and it all adds up.</p>
<p>Sorry peeps, but I'm telling it as it is. There are certain things you just can't euphemize.</p>
