@Revolution - from your post history. I'm confused, you've applied to HKS but seem intent to disparage it any chance you get. If the program is not suited to you, it seems like you're simply a prestige whore and looking for the Harvard name. There are plenty of terrific policy program around that do not charge such higf tuition if that is indeed what you are seeking. I applied to Fletcher and Fletcher only. Great school, can do clasess at Harvard and network, can do an MBA and tuition is signficantly less then Harvard. Seems like a program like that would be ideal (although I'm aware that Fletcher is an IR school the example still applies).

Theoretical example. I'm talking Bill/William. I registered as Bill but my ID says William so I'm hoping its fine.

Hi guys, first time poster! Always read intently and never needed to ask a question until now but here goes. I am booking my GRE test today and a question about the name on the test and the name on my ID. I used (perhaps rather stupidly now) a shortened form of my name (think Mike instead of Michael) because that is how I applied to the schools in question and wanted continuity. My ID gives my full first name. Is this going to be a problem? On the GRE website, it mentions my last name needs to match the one on my ID but nothing about first names. Any ideas? Do you think the invigilators maybe difficult about the ID showing my full first name and my test name being shortened? Thanks!
