go to georgetown or somewhere else where your chances of meeting people and making contacts will pay off. college is all about this - you'll be surprised how much of real-life success and opportunities depends on who you know or who your friends know; it's all about someone out there (ie. Gatekeepers) cutting you a break. being a hard worker, good student, etc. is the other half, but seriously, the pool of people with good grades is very high, but people with connections is where it's at.
Not really. If they want "proof" you can always say its a racist hate crime.Quote:
