There are some nice families of groups as $S_n$, $A_n$, $GL(n,q)$, $SL(n,q)$, and they are useful; we know their elements, and we can get small groups as subgroups of these groups. Is it possible to get every $p$ group as a Sylow-p subgroup of some group in such families of groups? ( For example, the non-abelian groups of order 8 are Sylow-2 subgroups of SL(2,3) and S4; there are five non-abelian groups of order 16, having no element of order 8, and one of them, namely $D_8 \times C_2$, is Sylow-2 subgroup of $S_6$. Also $SD_{16}$ is Sylow-2 subgroup of GL(2,3).)
