[quote=Anonymous] This seems like an ominous and somewhat frightening warning. Was this the intent of the poster? [/quote] Shouldn't be "frightening". But these are insular communities. Since this thread is about choosing between schools this is presented as "data". I'm still shocked by the whole idea of "applying to both schools". I can't think of a reason why the natural constituencies of one would consider applying to the other. Unless, of course, they were new to DC or were unfamilar with the schools. In DC, where you go to high school is much more important than where you go to college. Assuming that you stay in DC to live and work, your life-long friends will be those you went to high school with. That's a foreign concept to almost every other area of the US. There's a whole thread about it attacking it and defending it as a concept. But its real. And refusing to agree with it or believe its how things work has a price associated with it. [/quote]
