<p>My rankings essay is several lines over two pages...lol. This was after I had cut it a little short after discovering that I was ranting.</p>
<p>i am officially not applying to tasp. even though the program im planning on going on is a bit more costlier the itinerary sounds awesome:</p>
<p>1 week in concentration camps in poland
3 weeks working with underpriviledged kids in ukraine
1 week in israel</p>
<p>Good luck to all of you who are applying to TASP. I'm sure you'll do just fine!</p>
<p>If you were picking between TASP and that you definetly were picking between polar opposites. The progam you pick sounds real unique and cool, would you mind sharing its name.</p>
<p>Also right now I wish I didn't have to write all these essays good call on your part</p>
<p>hallo i'm new to the cc board in general but i just wanted to ask if someone can PM me musechick's essays as well? :P i just want to see the quality of the writing and the level of depth etc. etc. etc.</p>
<p>ahhh and i haven't even started most of them...i was supposed to finish summer apps over xmas break TT_TT</p>
<p>Aida I believe you have been officially hored out <$_$></p>
<p>Atleast you can laugh about it at the end of the day.</p>
<p>Kath: I know plenty have it so you probably will get it by the morning. Welcome to CC this gorup is crazy be warned.</p>
<p>Good Luck tommorrow on apps to all, I know atleast for me its the last day of winter break. Packing up and going to work with my mom all day so I can be focused on my essays. I'm sure I will find time to make a few periodic visits to the boards, even though Yahoo has the chillest albeit addictive office ever.</p>
<p>ahh its 3 am and i was just inspired by a nice topic for my issues essay</p>
<p>it's however very politically biased xD</p>
<p>good luck to everyone on your essays [:</p>
<p>and wow. 2 pages for rankings. btw forgottenhawk i live very close to you(ive been reading past posts lol) cal high wheee</p>
<p>Hi, I'm new to CC as well and was wondering if someone could pleasepleaseplease PM me musechick's essays.</p>
<p>Passion that is passion</p>
<p>wow. so it takes me an incredibly long time to write personal essays. it almost makes me think that TASP maybe isn't worth it? lol. but at least if i don't make it i'll probably be able to use a couple of the essays for something else.</p>
<p>anyway, i know i lot of people have been asking for musechick's essays. can someone send them to me too? my email is <a href="mailto:wendymeister@gmail.com">wendymeister@gmail.com</a>. thanks.</p>
<p>Hi! Could someone send me musechick's also? My email is <a href="mailto:suomynonagirl@gmail.com">suomynonagirl@gmail.com</a>. Thanks!</p>
<p>People, stop worshipping TASPer essays. Everyone has their own style and something unique to say--there is no set formula for what kind of essay will get you in. I didn't read any accepted essays when I wrote mine, in the 12 hour span before the deadline. I doubt Telluride wants a bunch of Aida-themed essays (though that would be awesome).</p>
<p>And lol, the essay writing is definitely worth it.</p>
<p>butcherer- Im not understanding what your trying to say. I thought originality was bad...</p>
<p>After the fact it would be interesting to read Aida's well any of the now college bound TASPers essays. As it would be interesting to see the correlation between her future essay and what ended up happening and just stuff like that.</p>
<p>list of cool people writing their essays w/o reading anyone elses first:</p>
<p>whatismouse</p>
<p>Mouse, I'm with you. Writing's not my thing. Other people will have better-written essays. All I can do is just hope my ideas are original enough.</p>
<p>Ahhh...instead of working on my essays, I just took a nap. So nice.</p>
<p>Whatismouse- very nice, although I think a new requirement for TASP is using the Aida writing style.</p>
<p>B_Liar-very nice. I of course thought i would beable to focus at my moms job. aparently not as I ended up on here, such a nice ethernet connection.</p>
<p>Is it okay if my last three essays aren't as long as my first three? My first three are all 1.5-2 pages, but my fourth is about a half page, and my fifth and sixth are each a page. I say all I need to say, but I'm worried about length. Also, the page requirements are based on single-spacing, no?</p>
<p>Yea based on single spaced. Although fonts and margins are sort of upto you. Also realize if you do online this isn't automatically seen by the reviewers I'm sure they print out an unformated copy. So dont worry, if you made your point you did a good job, dont try to make it all verbose because your subconscious because people on CC are showing you up, I think thats the point of this board. :-P</p>
<p>Your lucky your done with drafts</p>
<p>Yeah. My first 4 essays are 1.5 pages or so. None of mine even come close to the 4 or so pages others have mentioned. But I'm trying not to worry about it.</p>
<p>Giantredlobster - thanks for the advice. And yeah, that kind of is the point of this board :-)</p>
<p>Now, if I can convince my teacher to send his recommendation in on time, rather than a week late, everything would be peachy.</p>
<p>Realize you shouldn't just look at them as individual essays. Your actually building an essay package that with all 6 essays together can carry alot of strength. The people who read your essays will read them and continuity plus common assertiveness throughout can prove strong. That is one of the biggest problems with readng others essays it draws away from your central theme, focus and core morals that should become evident to the reader by reading your essays together. </p>
<p>Not to mention as a reader you have a whole lot of essays to read and something clear, consice and to the point can be refreshing to a reader.</p>
