Telluride Assocation Summer Program (TASP) 2014

<p>@unproductive‌ Yo, your girlfriend is not going to judge you for not making it into Telluride. :slight_smile: Neither will your cat, and those creatures really complete the list of important living creatures!</p>

<p>@kpalm1111‌ lol no it’s not that she’s gonna judge me! I don’t care about that. She’s just being really supportive and I don’t want to tell her I got rejected. But on the bright side…I’ll need consolation. ;)</p>

<p>@unproductive‌ So at I guess you have to count your blessings, or as we say in Kansas, you ought to “count your corn and revel in its sweet, rewarding flavor.”</p>

<p>how’s the gender distribution on this thread? just curious!</p>

<p>I could not say for sure! I do not know how gender factors into the program decisions either, to be honest. Are males and females selected in equal numbers?</p>

<p>am i correct in assuming most of you are guys?
i think they’d try to make it roughly equal </p>

<p>@suhnydaze‌ I am a female, and I assume unproductive is a male. Otherwise, I do not have any clue!</p>

<p>I feel like its mostly guys on here, but I heard they try to split it 50/50 guys girls for TASP</p>

<p>@kpalm1111‌ ooo sorry that must have been awkward. lol. did not mean any disrespect. but yes, to verify. I am a male.</p>

<p>I’m a girl!</p>

<p>@unproductive‌ Haha, no worries! There is nothing wrong with being candid about your circumstances. I have a strong feeling that the announcement will occur tomorrow instead of today. We may as well get a full night’s sleep so that we can handle the intensity of emotions that tomorrow will surely bring, be they pleasant or heartbreaking!</p>

<p>i’m a girl! and also, i just want to add that no matter what happens tomorrow, we should all know that we worked really hard to make it this far in the application process. and that hard work WILL pay off, whether it’s through an actual place at tasp or in increased readiness for college applications or in a totally unplanned summer that opens up unforeseen interests. we’re all awesome and we’re gonna do awesome things in life!!</p>

<p>and now to turn to a different yet no less stressful topic…out of curiousity, what ap classes and exams are you all taking this year? my ap calc exam is in a week and it’s freaking me out</p>

<p>I’m taking </p>

<p>AP Comparative Government

<p>@ameripen‌ oh my gosh that sounds like a headache, bless you for being able to handle all those AP classes! I took AP Euro last year, the MC was killer (even though I thought I knew my stuff) and a lot harder than the actual writing portion. </p>

<p>@hagakure‌ definitely, I just wish all of us could go together! I’m keeping my hopes low so I don’t feel extremely down and deflated tomorrow haha. </p>
