The 2012 Dart­mouth Love­Match sur­vey ad­min­isted by each year's Class Coun­cil re­ceived ap­prox­i­mately 1091 re­sponses — in­clud­ing re­sponses from Je­remy Lin, Jim Halpert and Hot Asian. Some high­lights:

My anatom­i­cal parts would best be de­scribed as:

42%Male

58%Fe­male

Grad­u­at­ing years:

37%12's

26%13's

15%14's

22%15's

Re­spon­dents said "the best thing (they) have going" is: "com­pas­sion­ate car­ing" (35%), "gut split­ting humor" (19%), "ex­cep­tional en­thu­si­asm" (18%).

When asked, "What do you look for first in oth­ers?", an­swers in­cluded "sense of humor" (36%), "looks" (18%) and "doesn't mat­ter" (15%).

For 62% of re­spon­dents, a bar/frat/party ranked as the #1 pickup place at 62%.

About 54% of Dart­mouth re­spon­dents said they are in­ter­ested in ca­sual dat­ing, while 16% said they're look­ing for friends with ben­e­fits and 14% said they're in­ter­ested in a se­ri­ous re­la­tion­ship.

When asked, "What would you do if you saw some­one you like?", 34% re­spon­dents said they're in­tro­duce them­selves, 27% would "get some­one to in­tro­duce you" and 23% would wait for the per­son to talk to you.

When it comes to that first date, 41% said it should end with a "kiss on the lips", 29% said a "kiss on the cheek", and 25% said a "hug". Ap­prox­i­mately 34% said the ideal lo­ca­tion was "Nugget and gelato." Mur­phy's (35%), Molly's (27%) and Yama (22%) ranked as the top Hanover din­ing places.

Prob­a­bly the cutest/too­real re­sult was that when asked "How would you find that some­one spe­cial?", 64% said they'd wait for some­one to find them. What's more, 58% said they're look­ing for some­one who chal­lenges or in­spires them.

Con­ver­sa­tion starters: 49% of re­spon­dents desribed their room as liv­able, 46% de­scribed their class­room par­tic­i­pa­tion as lis­ten­ing in­tently, 47% their ideal va­ca­tion as trav­el­ing over­seas and 66% de­scribed them­selves as "lead­ing" rather than "fol­low­ing" (10%). Ap­prox­i­mately 50% of re­spon­dents said they'd be a "lion" if they were in the an­i­mal king­dom, and 71% said that if they "just got punked", they would laugh. And lastly, 53% said they most as­pire to be a mem­ber of the Forbes 100.

And about 57% said that if they re­ally liked some­one on their match­maker print­out, they'd blitz them, so check your blitzes read­ers! But don't feel too bad if you don't see a re­sponse — 29% said they'd prob­a­bly do noth­ing.
