    const ProfileSchema = mongoose.Schema({
    name: String,
    age: Number,
    subjects: [String],
    late: Boolean
});

const Profile = mongoose.model('profile',ProfileSchema);

const profile1 = Profile.find()
console.log(profile1)

Answer 1

Use this -

Profile.find({}, function(err, profiles) {
   console.log(profiles);
});

Refer this for more details - https://mongoosejs.com/docs/api.html#model_Model.find

Answer 2

const profile1 = await Profile.find({});

Since Mongoose supports async/await I would make the wrapping function async and call your find function using the await syntax.

Also make a point to pass in an empty object {} to your find function when you want to return all the documents in the collection.
