How can we improve the GMAT section?

Get your point rahul but what ppl simply put in their profiles is their GMAT, work ex, GPA and international exposure and some Extra curricular. Belive me i saw a lot of those profiles on forums. The nuances you are taking of in this post are really the ones that I am eyeing too. But alas they hardly ever come out in 'the profile'. Seriously !

I for myself see no use in it now

The simple objective is to make the profile available to that someone who sees that Cryo got into HBS. He or she shud not be asking u to post and report ur profile. I think amit's idea is beautiful.

If we start it now, in a year or two it'll be a great place for Indian students to check out interviews other Indians had (as opposed to accepted.com where the int experiences are of appplicants from all over the world).

Iday/Neo: I too agree with Susie.. an interview database will be of real help to all applications in future.. I don't think a profile database doesn't add that much value.. it's afterall people's experiences and how they project it in their essays, rather than GMAT/Work-ex, that decides where one gets an admit!!

neo - we are way off topic here. can u fork this into a new thread and give cryo his thread back

.

just lift off related posts into a "International admission process - value add suggestions" kinda thread. We've discussed two options (profile database and interview database) and one of the them (interview database) sounds really good. So i guess the discussions will continue - so i guess this warrants a new thread.
