You don't care about the ethics of the application process? Do you think you are smart enough to play the system? Do you think identifying your city area, and the fact that your dad is an URM alumni interviewer might not just spell out exactly who you are to the Princeton administrators who regularly visit this site?

Wow, I'm really apalled by your discriminations, especially krazykool's last post. =S I'm also bothered by kwu's annoying need to pester me everywhere I go/post. He's been attacking my SAT scores and, quite frankly, I really think he deserves a ban to put him in his place.

I think what krazykool meant was--there will be only one person (you) with the exact scores you stated previously in your thread, which, with your father's Princeton interviewer position, and the geographical location you gave, it would be hard for admissions not to know who you are. All posters here must be careful of giving out too much identifying information (exact scores and location are an easy match), especially if a poster is publicly declaring his or her intention to defy the ethical standards of a college admissions process, and details exactly how he plans to do it. Be careful!

I have morals.

You do not.

"Quite frankly," you are in no position to make claims as to what I "deserve."

You are a funny, funny man.

I expect that you will be "put in your place," so to speak.

You should probably apply somewhere else. People willing to knowingly compromise the principles of the admissions process to try and gain an unfair advantage wouldn't fit in here. Speaking honestly, I hope you never grace us with your presence.

Aside from that, your strategy probably won't work, either. Princeton admissions isn't stupid, you know.

"LOL *facepalm*"

My sentiments exactly. LOL at the SAT only measuring how well you know the test.

You must be extremely stupid to post this. You know the answer is no, and if you couldn't know that not only are you not ready for Princeton characterwise-you simply aren't smart enough.

You also take a huge risk that someone might forward this to adcoms at Princeton. I've heard of similar things happening before.

And do you think that helps you fit in in a residential community?
