As a girl with a very long term bf, I'm accepting applications for me to be your wing woman. I have six years experience in the field and a long list of positive recommendations. (Just don't listen to my friend Matt. I saved him from himself and he just can't accept it.)
Though given the survival rates of LTRs in b-school I may be considering the talent by the end of the first Thanksgiving after all!
From my visits: Stanford: Normal attractive. Very CA type. You know what I mean. Sandals. I mean sandals. Berkeley: See above, but also the whole Berkeley vibe. Wharton: It was cold and everyone was super bundled up. I don't remember anyone making much of an impression one way or another. Kellogg: Relatively attractive, but I remember noticing the girls were attractive more than I do the guys. Tuck: Decent. Fairly standard. Darden: Gorgeous. Seriously. Both times I visited I remember thinking how oddly, incredibly attractive the dudes were. And the girls? Average. Which means our odds are fantastic. Yay women!

So if your boyfriend was smart, he'd send a letter to the Darden adcom clarifying that your "work experience" is actually dealing crack outside the local 7-11 to get you a ding.

Additionally, the area around Duke is shady. Ur odds improvce significantly as u might have to walk the "foxes" back home late in the evenings.

Your odds would be best if you got into Duke. The Fuqua Foxes are by far the best looking women at any top b-schools that I've visited. They also know how to party, meaning that they will...I think I've made my point.
PS The law school is right next door, which is another gold mine of its own.

odds are fair that your dating life will be somewhat active as a b-school student, but it will come at the cost of something else (prepping for interviews, studying for classes, networking with classmates). i think if you're willing to sacrifice other things, it could definitely happen.

Its frowned upon. Your classmates will make of u.
even with b-schools getting younger? i'll be barely 23 when i start b-school...thats not much older than juniors/seniors (and the occasional talented sophomore, haha)

I've actually wondered the same thing. I wouldn't go as far as to say that I'm looking to get married, but I would definitely like to meet a girl who's really smart. I'm not sure what the availability of cute smart girls is at top-tier b-schools, but what about other schools on campus, like law school, med school, etc? Maybe it would be a good idea to date someone who's also going to have a really demanding career 2-3 years post-graduation.
Is there a website out there that ranks B-Schools by who has the hottest girls? _________________
