The Indian Thread #22 AKA Class of 2018 admissions

<p>As far as I understand the process, there is a school profile and then there is the transcript. The idea is to firstly familarise the college and then be explanatory of school and you as a student. Just makes the process easy to understand and provides clarity to the person reading your application for the first time.</p>

<p>While the school profile is a generalised document, the transcript helps to define you from among your batchmates/classmates/. It will help to put your grades and numbers into a perspective. So if your report card shows your percentage or marks, they have to be in context of number of students in that class, average/highest/median score, your class rank, number of years in that subject. That would provide a reference point and so the adcoms person reading it is immediately able to assess you. </p>

<p>The school profile on the other hand would broadly define the subjects offered, grading parametres, how old the school is, the curriculum that it follows, size, location…and so on so forth.</p>

<p>Here is a link to one of the Indian School’s profile,</p>

<p>While your school need not be so elaborate, it could take some idea on how to go about. And I also think this is only a one time exercise. The students who apply after you would benefit from it as well.</p>
