A thought occured to me earlier today-it would be interesting to know the precentage breakdown of accepted ivy league/prestigious college applicants and which astrological signs they belong to. I don't necessarily believe that celestial bodies billions of miles away influence our day-to-day lives, but it would be interesting to see if research on this subject would provide "proof" for those who do believe in astrology : "Oh...there aren't many Pisces who have been accepted, that's because they're so flighty" or "Leos are so brilliant, 22% of the student body at MIT are Leos." Maybe this sort of data would support [the somewhat silly, IMHO] assumptions about various astrological signs.

Does anyone know of any research on this?
