I would like to add that I have been in the shoes of an applicant recently and I would have loved to get a stranger's or a third person perspective on my essays. I did get help from my friends but they came back saying that they knew me well enough to not provide a meaningful information. I think this is a great idea and we can definitely take advantage of it and help it move forward beyond the 48 hours.

Great idea... you guys really are ahead of me... as an applicant this year to CBS (Tuck pending outcome)... I was thinking of doing something similar next year. Goodluck raising funds and I look forward to seeing the outcome.

Hi
Sorry for my skepticism but how could you prove that you are from Ross? Any @ross.edu email?

No problem, I'm in the room with a bunch of the other students and we're trying to figure out the best way to prove that we are students without giving out our personal email addresses.

Give us 15 minutes, we've got a plan!

Sorry for skepticism guys, but I am as a former auditor and current moderator must be cautious :)

Guys I have been contacted by one of the students and the person provided me with his/her e-mail.

By the way - I think Ross School of Business at University of Michigan is probably the BEST business school for primarily ONE REASON - the people. People make companies go round. People make the world go round. I think UMICH is the best business school in the WORLD.

Love the team comraderie - I'm so happy to see this!

Great idea section 2!
