I know its already been said before, but man, this is a pretty insane list. I feel like a total slacker only applying to Emory and Duke in R1, and Georgia Tech in R2, if I need to. Crazy numbers on the list for GMAT scores.

As Montauk says, do not pay too much attention to the figures in the rankings, there is a school that is right for YOU.

the hard part is if you get into two schools that's "right" for you, but right for different reasons. One is slightly more right, but lower "ranked" (in the tier system Hjort proposed), the other is slightly less right, but MUCH higher in "rank." What do you do then?

Of course, I'm telling myself that I have no need to worry about this until I get into ONE school first!

kryzak, that's exactly my thoughts with Emory and Duke. One is more right for my personality and my current situation, the other is right for me also, but not as right, and ranked higher. But, let me just try to get into one before I fry my brain thinking about that one.

exactly. I've been debating between Kellogg and UCLA, but then I remember that I haven't gotten into ANY schools yet, so why debate that now? We'll all have much better access to students, faculty, classes, and other resources once we get into the schools to better help us make our decisions!

I am debating right now whether to sell coconuts in Cancun or cocaine in Cartagena...

any takers.. also I feel like a slacker coz I submitted my apps and have nothing to do...I am looking now at some schools for R2 to get my bordedom out.

All these months, I felt I had some purpose, that I was doing something and aiming for the stars...Now all I do is watch the news, read jokes and send out resumes to companies hoping for a better job.

Average Indian GMAT score was 752.5 :(

Mine is 710.

I know that "GMAT only does not count" and the "holistic" BS and the usual crap.

Still..

Yuck.

I think it would be nice to have something similar to admissions411...that is very easy to update and search through. I know we can all just put profiles there but it would be nice to have a gmatclub version. Most people have private profiles on there so it makes it tough to see anything beyond gmat scores...a lot of people dont even put down where they are from.

I'll pickup the action in Medellin and we can build a GMATclub cartel! I wonder how well that would go over with the adcoms...

The median and mean are amazing for the scores...and we wonder why some people are intimidated by this site.
