I think this process drives some people to near madness. Follow the Kellogg thread and its a lesson in how to spiral downhill into depression in 4 short weeks. So many people are bitter on there. They also are the ones that frequent it. I think they hate to see a name they dont recognize come in and post an admit when they were dinged or haven't heard. That place breeds posters that spread disinformation on purpose, so its no wonder people question stuff on there.
Things I have learned from BW:
Indians don't get into b-school. The ones I have met while visiting are obviously plants to give indians hope so they donate $200 and submit an application that goes in the round filing cabinet on the floor.
If you have a 710 then you aren't getting in because you dont have a 770.
No one but Sandy's clients get into Harvard or Stanford.
Start a thread about choosing between two schools and someone will say well its not HBS or Stanford so it doesnt matter because they are the only ones that are clearly superior to any other school in any respect.
Specifically I found some interesting tidbits about some of our valued members that I otherwise wouldn't have known: Nervous is in fact an 8 year old boy (didn't know that when I met her but 790gmat stated this so it must be true). And Lanter1 is a liar and cheat, who has never really heard of Yale but just wants to try to impress everyone because he is in fact a 54 year old high school drop out living in his parents basement.
