<p>+1 for MIT because of their top-tier math department; I love math. :)</p>

<p>I’m going to University of Maryland this fall. Take a wild guess who’s going down.</p>

<p>-1 for UVA because I’m going to UMD… it’s only fitting. No offense to your brilliant student body, but it’s gotta be some college.
-1 for Duke… again, I respect their exemplary students, but boy does Maryland hate them… </3</p>
