<p>How many of you have Brown as your first (or tied for first) choice?</p>
<p>I have it as my first choice right now</p>
<p>its tied for first</p>
<p>but its really the only one i would be able to do everything i wanted</p>
<p>its a little far from my area though…so its just weighing advantages vs disadvtanges</p>
<p>zantedeschia, it couldn’t hurt to contact them…at least it would give you some peace of mind :)</p>
<p>i think brown’s tied first for me…
hmm not so sure about RI though…</p>
<p>Tied for first. :)</p>
<p>This is sort of weird, but sometimes it’s first and other times it’s tied for first. I can’t really make up my mind.</p>
<p>Which other college is it tied with, sunkist?</p>
<p>Well, to make it more confusing, it’s between Harvard and Stanford. I’m from California, so I would like to stay in-state. Then again, the East Coast is very enticing and I’ve sort of set my mind on going to college there. I do got to say though that Brown is the one most suited for my academic interests.</p>
<p>What about for you, calidan?</p>
<p>Brown is my third. lol. After UNC-Chapel Hill and UVa…Brown is just too expensive…</p>
<p>Well, for me, I’ve got a 3-way tie (this only developed recently). Right now, here’s the lineup:</p>
<ol>
<li>Brown, Dartmouth, Georgetown (accpeted EA)</li>
<li>UPenn</li>
</ol>
<p>I’m thinking that this problem, however, will at least partially solve itself come April. ;)</p>
<p>PS- I’m from California, too. Where do you live?</p>

<p>Hi…I’ve been a ‘lurker,’ but I spend so much time reading this board I figured I should join…</p>
<p>I, too, am burning for Brown!!! I’m afraid I love it too much. Is that possible?

<p>calidan: I’m from southern California. Congrats on getting accepted to Georgetown EA! It’s an amazing school. I liked it very much when I visited. Good luck with Brown.</p>
<p>Thanks! You too! :)</p>
<p>socal ppl rock…thats just a fact 
btw, calidan, did u get in to the college or SFS?</p>
<p>And what about Norcal people? (like calidan! He certainly rocks :))</p>
<p>Norcal ppl tend to do a lot more rollin’ than actual rockin’… :p</p>
