[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Since you are from out of state, I wouldn't go to W&M. It's a pretty nerdy school with lots of VA kids. Richmond is full of beautiful, rich kids. [/quote]

seriously, is this true in general?[/quote]

It is not true.  The quirky thing is honestly BS.  All kinds of people go to W&M.  Just ask Jon Stewart![/quote]

Yeah, "quirky" is what people say when they're trying to convince themselves their ordinary suburban kid is somehow different and more special than hundreds of thousands of similar kids.[/quote]

I always thought quirky was a way of saying nerd or theater kid [/quote]

OP, take note of this. It isn’t BS no matter what people say. We are a Virginia family and 80%+ of the kids we know at W&M are either nerdy or smart theatre kids. There is a type of kid that gravitates towards W&M. These are not the same kids that would gravitate towards Richmond. Both are great schools academically, but definitely have a different vibe from one another. Go when school is in session and tour. Your DD will know pretty quickly which she prefers. [/quote]
