[quote=Anonymous]I recently spoke to a Washington, DC, area acquaintance who, when they asked where my child would be attending college and I told them, asked me how my child was admitted to one of the very most competitive private universities, and then swiftly responded herself -- oh, of course, you are from X State. Of which I thought, yes, because being from X, the most populous U.S. State, and specifically from one of the two largest metropolitan areas in the U.S., really means DC had less competition. Nice comment. Is that a typically DC area, competitive snark my acquaintance was exhibiting? Her comment would have made sense only if we had been discussing DC's admission to our State flagship, which we were not.[/quote]
