anyone think adcomms pose as kids on this site to psychologically analyze and manipulate prospective students?

It's a little known fact that Harvard actually owns a satellite in space that can pinpoint the location of all potential applicants and read their thoughts at any given time. However, if you wear a tinfoil hat 24/7, like me, you'll foil their nefarious plans (nopunintended). Word to the wise...

Great idea...off to buy tinfoil (is that the same as aluminum foil, or do we have to go high-tech and have it made of some titanium/graphite alloy?).

Loved your humor. Great post. Thanks for the break from the stress; we need a laugh to help us all through this process.

Please be aware that MIT applicants have raised the stakes in this by adopting aluminum colanders as standard headgear. Not trying to start an arms, I mean hat race, or anything like that, of course.

you do know that there are graphite-fiberglass-polyacetate hats that shield your brain just as well but are much lighter, more flexible, and more comfortable

Prolonged exposure to graphite-fiberglass-polyacetate causes impotence.

Paranoia aside, it would make sense that college marketing people take a look at this site. It's not illegal to research your market and there's a lot of valuable information on these boards.

All of you posting above are actually adcoms, right?
