If the school has not mentioned anytihng about the length , then what should be the length of the CV that we should submit. Will a brief 1 page profile enough?

Nice....

Working on my resume is one of my last components for my Cornell application.

I see that they list the educaiton first and then list the experience.

What is the recommended format for somebody with 4-5 years work exp. no graduate study?

If the school doesn't have a non-disclosure policy for the GMAT score, should we put down the GMAT score on the resume?

No. GMAT scores go on job searching resumes, not on B-school application resumes.

The funny thing is that naturally it should be the other way around.

Hi,
Does anyone know of a consultancy company or an individual who "just work on your CV"? In addition, I heard admissions look at your LinkedIn profile. Is this true? Do "CV consultants" also help with LinkedIn?
Thanks!

Hi,
I think admissions don't look at LinkedIn profiles at the first stage, but I am nearly sure that my interviewers checked me out before our interview (Columbia, MIT and Kellogg)
