<p>Perhaps it’s because you are in a rush to get to 15 posts so you can then receive/send PMs…but your approach to the whole discovery process seems a bit scattered to me.</p>
<p>As people have noted, the search tool (specifically the advanced search tool) is great for finding, you know, stuff you are looking for.</p>

<p>Seems to be exactly what you are looking for, no? A current (frosh in 2012) student offering to ask any questions…</p>
<p>I think the board rewards people who have done their homework and then have questions, not newcomers with a “shotgun” approach.</p>
<p>Just my 2¢. FYI, I’m the parent of a BS student in her 3rd year who is currently shepherding a second child through the same process.</p>
<p>If you haven’t read my recap of our search/application process a few years ago, it may be worth a read.</p>
