Great idea and thread. Don't know if it's too much to ask, but when someone has the time, it would be useful if the questions were organized by section, such as GMAT topics, Interviews, Essays...etc.

If you think it would valuable (which I agree with), take the initiative and step up to the plate. Are you up to the task?

actually I didn't do much... it was actually the moderator bb who inserted the hyperlinks so that the title links directly to the page. i still need to learn how to do that.  so thanks bb!

I am sure there is room for both methods of organizing information - we will see where it leads.
