One of the best posts I've read on the club!
As an Indian/IT guy I now realize what I'm missing.

Thanks again.

Very informative and gives a good indication on how much time (on average) one should spend for the application to get a good shot at top schools.
+1 and waiting for part2.

Dood, this post is just amazing. Congrats on Wharton. It's obvious why Wharton accepted you.

Sterny,

How is that interview section coming along? I am especially interested to get your opinions on Columbia/Wharton interviews.

This was great. I have sent in my scores and transcripts. I started my essays way to last minute. They are straight crap. I think I need to follow your guide and start over. I wonder if I should go ahead and submit. I feel like I am wasting money.
