I agree w/ using pdf for the ppt. I've been working on my ppt on my Mac (Office for Mac) and was using a font that is not supported when I opened it up on my PC at work today. It changed all the spacing and looked terrible. Moral: pdf where you can.

Also, everyone who is applying, we should have them set up together.

terp06, you can edit your first post on the first page to include everyone so we can see everyone's status when interview invites/admissions decisions start rolling along.

As an example, please see:
103-t48955

Based on what I've seen so far (and we can finalize this list Oct 16th)

My file was too large to upload as a .ppt so I converted to a .pdf.

I used to use pdf995. With Office 2007, I can do it directly.

Have you guys found a place to mention internships or part-time jobs held during college on the application? I see nowhere to mention it except for the resume.

Are you guys actually putting down responsibilities and accomplishments during internships? Currently, I only put 1 line under my Undergraduate school, Internships held: x (summer 2004), y (summer 2005). I would much rather devote the space to accomplishments in FT employment post-grad, and I don't want to be a typical investment banker/finance guy and use a 6 point font (no pun intended).

It's been shaky throughout today and I expect this to continue over the course of the next day.
