Nice initiative, buddy..
You are not just fultoo_bakar, the way I aint plain buck_was :P

In fact, to be honest, even I was toying with the idea of a similar thread, but with wider application and ramifications.. we can add which all instts we are applying to or intend to apply to.. we can add a link of that post of ours to our signature too, just as many of us have a link to respective mock scores.. wud help thousands others to see wot kinda ppl (%ile fetchers) are applyin at which kinda instts.. also, we cud advise each other if someone's blundering filling some forms too early wen the decision can wait, or if someone cud be better off applyin to some instt vis-a-vis another for better prospects/chances (had actually thought of this para as the SOP for tht thread's opening post, lest the mods shud wield there mice to lock it up)

Wot say, Puys?

Link to my mock percentiles is already there in my signature..

Hope this helps and this initiative takes off well.. I request only one post of this MBA instt forms type per Puy, so tht the clutter is minimal.. and we can keep modifying the same as and wen necessary..

PS: this idea struck me wen I saw a post on these lines frm deep_agrawal (it was on the BBLT thread, i guess).. so Deep, u can copy-paste ur efforts of tht post here

PPS: Having completed the long n painful season of interviews, here's how I wud hv rated my chances of conversion.. (taking into account various factors such as my perception of my test n GD/PI performance, my profile vis-a-vis instt n level of competition, and conversion ratio)
Nirma > IMI > NMIMS > SIBM (Blr converted) > MDI (PGPM) > XIM > IIFT > IIMI > IIMK > IIMC (PGDCM) > IIMC (PGDM) > XLRI > IIMA
