Hmm... I have some trouble importing feeds manually into Google reader.

When I try to jsut add the B-School Life forum to my feed, I end up subscribing to the whole forum (as much as I like GC, that's too unwieldy.)

These are the steps I take,
1. Add Subscription in Google Reader.
2. Paste rss.php?f=108 into the feed URL.

I am missing something or doing it wrong?

Hm....

I checked with FireFox and subscription went fine (just the Business School Life feeds came in)
Checking with Google Reader and it says "Sorry, an unexpected condition has occurred which is preventing Google Reader from fulfilling the request."

Other forum feeds work, such as the Business School application - let me check permissions and research. I will be back.

there appears to be some glitch between this forum and Google reader. I routed it through our Feedburner account and it works, so you can subscribe to this feed meanwhile: http://feeds2.feedburner.com/GmatClubFo ... SchoolLife - it is the same feed, except it first gets retrieved by Feedburner and only then Passed on to you - usually that means a greater delay.

P.S. Thank you for bringing it up!
And though I am subsribed to the global forum feed (job description requires that)- i can't handle going through all of the posts.

That should be correct. You can also get specific feeds for CR, RC, and SC if you wanted to.

P.S. Did it require you to put "#" sign at the end to work properly?

The feeds never seem to work properly for me. I added them in google reader and then it all gets mixed up like the results for DS and PS and Verbal all return the results of that of Verbal. It works fine initially but later gets messed up. Same thing happened to me when I tried to add them in Firefox.

Please let me know if the feeds work properly or anyone else facing the same problems
