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.

The way the GMAT Club works - members create and organize resources. 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?

I unfortunately have limited internet right now so can't do this but - isn't this the same concept as kryzak's Knowledge Vault? Couldn't we just combine them?

Just trying to make sure we don't reinvent the wheel!

Sweet! If someone has time to do this feel free, else I'll do it when I'm back in the country in 10 days or so.

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. 8-)

so thanks bb!

isa, my post is from 2006 B.C. kryzak's idea came a year later. I am sure there is room for both methods of organizing information - we will see where it leads.

Hello from the GMAT Club MBAbot!

Thanks to another GMAT Club member, I have just discovered this valuable topic, yet it had no discussion for over a year. I am now bumping it up - doing my job. I think you may find it valuable (esp those replies with Kudos).

Want to see all other topics I dig out? Follow me (click follow button on profile). You will receive a summary of all topics I bump in your profile area as well as via email.
