Tasp 2007

<p>I'M DONE. I'M SO HAPPY.</p>

<p>I was stressed this week because I had TASP apps on top of midterms coming up next week. Now I can strangely.. relax.. even though this is supposed to be one of the most stressful periods of the school year. </p>

<p>I don't know what to expect now. I hope I get chosen for an interview at least.</p>

<p>Congrats Mimi! Best of luck. Gotta wait until March... =-O</p>

<p>Woo-hoo congrats to all who have finished!</p>

<p>I hope to join the list of completed appliers after this one final question..</p>

<p>I saw people discussing this in previous pages, but didn't see an answer.
Did they want you to discuss EACH seminar offered? Bc frankly, I had nothing to say about some of the topics...</p>

<p>I wrote about the value of art, and rather briefly about its potential/current effects on society.</p>

<p>Then I wrote about myself, and how I'm so interested in lots of things I'm conflicted over how I spend my time. Lame, no? Eh, well. </p>

<p>I'm open to reading/offering opinions on others' essays, but am really hesitant to release my own... but if anyone wants to, PM me. </p>

<p>I'd be devastated if I got the phone interview and then was rejected. Eep.</p>

<p>I did Crime and Punishment for my critical analysis, I think its horrible because I had to condense about 10 pages of ideas into two.</p>

<p>My problem essay was about the negative role of Patriotism in American anbd global society. I didn't edit it much so its kindof... eh</p>

<p>My conflict was about how I overcame the religious indoctrination I had as child. Might have been a little bit extreme.</p>

<p>just checking--the critnal can consist mostly of thematic ideas, right? not just page/style references...?</p>

<p>I feel kinda bad now</p>

<p>I was sick on Sunday and throwing up
and my mom called TASPs
and they gave me a pseudo-extension (as far as I know) as long as we could overnight the app</p>

<p>but I still didn't finish
I work too slow and my drive is shaky depending on what I am doing</p>

<p>I still can apply to RSI but TASPs, I truly believe, would have been so much better for me if I got in</p>

<p>anyways, would anybody care to read the one essay I did write
it is short</p>

<p>That's really too bad Actuaria...sometimes bad luck comes around. Maybe it'll all turn out for the best? Maybe you'll adore RSI instead.</p>

<p>It can't hurt to write up some essays quickly, an hour each maybe, and just send them in. The online deadline hasn't happened yet, you know!</p>

<p>Persevere!</p>

<p>but what about my recs and transcripts</p>

<p>I just turned in my TASP application online.
i had to shut my eyes and press submit with two hands.</p>

<p>sdfklhdsfkljdsf.</p>

<p>oh yeah, btw hey everyoen, im new to CC although ive been checking it out for a while. so hello out there</p>

<p>you'll be alright</p>

<p>welcome
and oh yeah, you'll be alright</p>

<p>I hope to see ya around CC tho</p>

<p>sorry I couldn't edit my original post cause CC was telling me it was too short</p>

<p>I just finished my app! only..is anyone else having trouble getting the online application to stop messing up your essay format? like..the book list I had two columns but now it's just a big jumble</p>

<p>haha oh yeahh i had some problems too.
i had a number of things italicized within my essays.
like in my poem analysis i italicized a number of letters to show the connection through alliteration. so yeah i kind of lost that visual effet. ah well.</p>

<p>haha thanks ActuarialDJ, hope you feel better and things work out!</p>

<p>i just finished my app!!!!
this calls for a celebration. i'm gonna go eat cookies now.</p>

<p>awww actuarialdj you really never know if things can turn out right even tho all hope seems lost</p>
