Telluride Association Summer Program (TASP) 2012

<p>What’s the length of your shortest essays? I haven’t finished, but so far it’s 556, but I have a feeling I’m going to have shorter ones than that one…</p>

<p>umm, for the 5th one i only had like 550ish
but for the rest my lowest was 800</p>

<p>I have a feeling the one I’m working on will be around 550-600 words.</p>

<p>Haha geeze. I think mine are still a bit too short… I’ll try to add more onto them if I have time, but that seems unlikely.</p>

<p>P.S.
146
199
and 423. </p>

<p>Lol i’m getting there, slowly but surely.</p>

<p>Do you think the future plans essay carries the same amount of weight as the previous essays?</p>

<p>I imagine they all carry about the same amount of weight, but I can’t say for sure.</p>

<p>Did anyone include periodicals on the book list? I mostly read news articles online, so I’m not sure what to say for that.</p>

<p>@EducatedFools I would say they are all of equal importance, or at least I’m hoping so, as I haven’t even chosen a text for my critnal so it’ll probs be utter sheet.</p>

<p>(I really wish they’d focken let me swear in peace.)</p>

<p>Haha I got into a random ‘rant’ of typing… 318 words now on the seminar essay and I’m still not done. Woohoo. :D</p>

<p>DONE
Seminars: 376
Future Plans: 978
Booklist: 10 books; 7 unassigned</p>

<p>WORKING ON
Topic/Problem: 779
Personal Conflict: 449
Critical Analysis: 622</p>

<p>Because I decided to completely revamp my personal conflict essay today. -_- Should be a fun night.</p>

<p>Submitted, wheeeee~</p>

<p>Tip: lay off the energy drinks while doing your TASP application. It’s 3am, I submitted my application 90 minutes ago. Can I sleep? No!</p>

I included two periodicals, but I also included a website name that houses many different articles from a collection of papers into one website.</p>

<p>676 words for my issue essay. Now I’m starting my conflict essay, which shouldn’t be hard to crank out.</p>

<p>Wait, I just wrote four paragraphs for the seminars. It’s supposed to be an essay?!? I thought " Please be succinct; we do not expect a formal essay."</p>

<p>DONE WITH THE ESSAYS! Now to actually do the rest of the application…</p>

<p>last stretch you guys…1 hour 48 minutes</p>

<p>Got my problem and future one to crank out and edit. Comeoncomeoncomeon</p>

<p>Quick question: For the areas where it says to “list” are you guys separating the items on the list with commas or
on
separate
lines?</p>

<p>Alright done with 3 essays; two to go.</p>

<p>Conflict: 199 words ):</p>

<p>Interesting problem: 423</p>

<p>Once I hit 500 on each, I’m done… For the conflict, I may even cut it off at 400. -.-</p>

<p>Like for the interests question? I have it like…</p>

<p>Red. Blue. Green. Yellow.</p>

<p>So, periods in between. Lines or commas would both easily work.</p>
