Do you mean girls? Why would that be? I saw a meme on memebridge about the same thing. Why is it that everyone hates St. John's guys but apparently girls seem to dig them? :laugh:

looooooooooooollll how do applicants now know about memebridge it's only been around for a few months

yeah john's is pretty nice on the eye, rich, and ball tickets.

Everyone thinks Eton boys are pretentious and weird but if one asked you out, you'd definitely consider it, lbr. Maybe the same applies to Johns?

Lot of crap southern/northern banter in this thread.

Boy you'll fit in perfectly at cambridge haha

I once saw a comment on a Jake Wright video saying "I thought northerners aren't aloud at Cambridge" I could see why you northerners weren't aloud at Cambridge...

You would consider it just cause he is an Eton boy?

Probably Atlee or Gladstone. Or Lord Palmerston.

Elaborate on this - is there a lot of regional banter at Cam?

if your rate atlee you should rate blair tbh.

Yeah a bit. There's barely any northerners though. Everyone i meet on swaps is always the cliched "grammar school in london" background

Unless he was outright creepy, yeah. When we went to Windsor for a school trip in Year 8 (only Maths school trip ever!!!), loads of girls took selfies with Eton boys because they seemed so elite and fancy and they were wearing their fancy uniform. I'm not that obsessed, but there's definitely some appeal because they're a bit mysterious and prestigious, plus rich with a good education :tongue:

But really, they're a bunch of rich weirdos.

unless your offer is unconditional, none.

Soo many people get an offer but don't meet the grades. Study hard kids then enjoy the massive summer.

Then again, clean neat gin is classy. or some crap white wine.
