Background checks SUCK! I have to account for every residence I lived for the last 10 years... who remembers which dorm room they had in college? How am I supposed to remember the address of the apartment I lived at for 6 weeks while I studied in Ireland one summer 6 years ago?

    Sometimes the credit reports have alot of that info on them (tell them you lived in a youth hostel in Ireland...hehehe)

    I got out of college long before you, but my freshman and soph dorm room was 1709, Junior was 1115, and apartment number my senior year was 12C.
    And I drank heavily all 4 years, so you can't use that as an excuse.

    I, oddly enough, remember that my freshman dorm was 962, but can't remember my room the second year. I got my college apartments... because the 10c has records of all the orders I had shipped to them in undergrad ;)

    I'm about to graduate with a graduate degree from two pretty big schools (univ. of michigan and NYU) and have not lived in a dorm yet. I think I should after I graduate like those guys in Old School though...

    214 Freshman year...I think
    That's the only year I lived in the dorms, I've lived off campus every year since then.
    I do remember one night coming home just plastered and my RA checked me in since it was after hours and she asked me my room number and I just slurred some combination..not even close. I may have even told her two different numbers, just started guessing. I believe I fell down shortly after that.

    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    shouldn't the people that want the background check do it themselves?

    They're going to do it once I turn all this in with my fingerprint card anyway... it's kind of a test... they try to nail you for lying if you hide or forget anything.

    It was 15 years ago (ouch), and I can't remember. I know it was the 4th floor, and on the low number end of the hall, but those brain cells were lost a long time ago.

    This is a pretty heavy/serious check though, and they look for reasons to grill you. I have enough skeletons in my closet that worry me that I don't want to take any chances getting railed for not putting down my many apartments.

    Not a job, I'm applying for the Bar Exam. They do an FBI style rundown on your entire history.
