<p>syrbball153, poskmarked.</p>
<p>My application has been sent off into the desert.
I stayed up until three last night proofreading the essays over and over. Gah.
Are you all finished?</p>
<p>CAPhotographer:
I really will get to your message soon! How did your application go?</p>
<p>Good luck everybody, one last time. Letās stay active here so that if any of us are lucky enough to make it to Round II, we can coordinate a trip at the same time.</p>
<p>I had some complications with my transcriptsā¦ Do you think as long as I send the bulk of my application out today they will care much if they get my grades postmarked Monday?</p>
<p>looking over the conversasions in this thread, I am clearly NOT deep springs material :(. Wish I would have known this before I dedicated hours to the app</p>
<p>Iām right there with you. Itās incredible how much content they coveredā¦ But whatever, whatās done is done. Iām just glad itās no longer in my hands.</p>
<p>Good luck to all of youā¦ Zach, why didnt you send me the essays like you said you were going to!!!
And to all of those post halloween new posters ( or everyone that is not Rednegativity, CAphotographer, JRose or Bbbear: Thank you for ruining this thread.</p>
<p>How do you guys make sure that your materials are received by DS? There is not things like application status check.</p>
<p>hey hey hey hey hey samuel what is being ruined here. Iām not hating on anyone in this thread I just am dissapointed at the caliber Iām going up against. My stats are great, but I simply did not have the time to write essays of the same caliber as some of you guys. I only learned deep springs existed on nov. 1st, so the fact I made the deadline was an accomplishment. show some love for your fellow applicants man, weāre all nervous, and some of you guys are fricken geniuses</p>
<p>Hey nevin021s, I wish you the best of luck and that is a pretty good feat with finishing the essays that early. I think my comment came off really harsh, and in a sense I wanted it to. But Im not " hating on" these gentlemen who have recently started posting as people, but I was simply ( and perhaps I should have explained this a larger degree than I did in my original post) commenting on the fact that the post was not what it once was, which was really saddening to me. So who among us men are āgeniusesā in your mind?</p>
<p>I think for the most part you are tools at best.</p>
<p>Confronted with those who fail to recognize themselves in my festivals of negation, I offer neither dialogue nor sympathy but only my derision.</p>
<p>I like your style.</p>
<p>Well isnt is by definition hard for tools to recognize themselves as such? I mean I can suppose that I was in your category of ātoolsā but even if I wasnāt Itās probably not all that fair to be making those kind of accusations with little to no knowledge of any of the people here, besides their posts on this thread.
Are you applying to DS?</p>
<p>I think my relationship to the valley is best left to your imagination.</p>
<p>I wrote what I wrote to elicit response. I admit that my judgment was based on your contributions to this thread, and I will argue that it was an exhibition of fineāfairājudgment. College Confidential is antithetical to Deep Springs, if you are even the least bit worthy of acceptance into round two you will immediately cease communication with other applicants (and change your Facebook/Twitter status to reflect that you recently masturbated).</p>
<p>I think I have done my duty. End.</p>
<p>Dear frequenters of the College Confidential Deep Springs thread,</p>
<p>While we understand that some of the conversations that has occurred on this thread may be of some benefit to those applying to Deep Springs, we would like to request, in light of some recent postings, that this conversation be moved into a private forum. Members of the Deep Springs community, including the Applications Committee, read these postings and we feel it would be best if this thread were moved elsewhere.</p>
<p>Respectfully,</p>
<p>Deep Springs Applications Committee 2009-2010</p>
<p>Oh Internet!</p>
<p>hello
what happen to the weird fake-sh adcom post and the bunch of kidsā replies?
was I dreaming?</p>
<p>whoa. good point. Iām confused</p>
<p>Hey eveyone, Iām just getting on the DS train. I only found out about it Late November (around the 20th I believe), and I contacted them asking for an extension. They said it was okay, and I sent out a completed application by November 26th. For those of you who think you didnāt have enough time, I would reconsider your luck. XD</p>
<p>On a lighter note, when do we hear back for round II? Will they let us know if we didnāt make it?</p>
<p>The current term will end next week. I would think the accepted can fairly expect to hear before then, but the rejected may have to wait a little longer.</p>
<p>Why is this thread receiving thousands of views? Did the applicant pool drastically increase this season or are there just a few hundred overzealous applicants?</p>
