<p>DFTBA!</p>
<p>I concur with the above.</p>
<p>DFTBA, fellow TASPlicants.</p>
<p>Yes! So glad to see some Nerdfighters among the TASPlicants :)</p>
<p>The wait is killing me! Almost March guys, hang in there! The moment of truth is nearing. By the way, does anyone else have the week off? :)</p>
<p>when do we know our results ?</p>
<p>I think mid March is interview notification.</p>
<p>Ughhh guys, it feels like it’s taking foreverrrrrrrrrrr</p>
<p>I was probably rejected… if you’re looking back at your essays and you think they suck in retrospect, you are not alone.</p>
<p>That’s why I’m never gonna look at my essays again. I just can’t. </p>
<p>I’m on mid-winter break. It’s glorious. Well, not really, since I have enough work to occupy a full month of time, but whatever. </p>
<p>Hands in the air if TASP notifications are just a small fraction of how stressful your March is going to be. -hand-</p>
<p>My two weeks off for spring break are in march. So… More free time to stress about results! Yay!.. -.-</p>
<p>I’ve been checking this thread obsessively in case anyone already received his or her results :s This is physically painful.</p>
<p>I probably got rejected.</p>
<p>But I’m still kind of freaking out and obsessively checking this thread. >.></p>
<p>Don’t feel bad Leisha, I probably got rejected too… I looked back at my essays. Oh. My. God. I even had a couple of typing errors!! I forgot a word in one sentence and put ‘in’ instead of ‘is’. -.-</p>
<p>If it adds/subtracts to anybody’s stress, I got my notification March 2nd last year.</p>
<p>Make sure you check your spam folders as well as your inboxes. I know that a couple of people had their email clients shove the notifications into junk mail folders.</p>
<p>Strangely enough, it did both. I first breathed a sigh of relief, then continued on to panic. But thank you for the information ToastOfDestiny :)</p>
<p>Thanks for the information. 
It makes me feel both better and worse.</p>
<p>On a different note, has anyone read Unwind by Neil Shusterman? I’m not sure if you all really read dystopian YA, but I read this book a few months ago and I can’t get it out of my head.</p>
<p>Yeah I read it a few months ago as well! It’s a really great book and I was hoping they’d do the film adaptation. Let’s hope it’s as good as the book because most of the time the film is nothing like the book.</p>
<p>Ah yeah, i read that like… 2 years ago? It’s such a great book, and it really makes you think. Definitely look past the “dystopian young adult” label. Though i’m not sure how i feel about a film adaptation.</p>
<p>I’ve applied. I don’t have my hopes up, but I’ll worry if I’m selected for an interview. I wonder if I could request files of my responses if selected, because my computer has crashed and died for good. It was a really cheap rebuild our family’s had forever, and we don’t have the money to get the files out of the hard drive. I don’t have and haven’t had a USB for a while now to back up my files, either.</p>
<p>Sorry about your computer, Pepperoncini. 
My condolences. But I’m sure if you explained to them the situation, they’d find you the files. </p>
<p>…</p>
<p>Haven’t read Unwind yet… been planning to, but haven’t gotten around to it yet. I love dystopian YA. It’s worth reading, I presume?</p>
<p>Crossing my fingers (for a notification) so hard they’re turning blue, but not expecting anything. I know the odds simply aren’t good. Also, my essays were…hmm, don’t quite know what to think of them, really. Good, I suppose, but I don’t know how the rest of the essays submitted were. Hope I beat the odds. Hope we all do (impossible, but a nice thought). </p>
<p>May the odds be ever in your favor. But if all doesn’t turn out for us, I’m sure we’ll have amazing summers and futures ahead if us. An Ivy League education (which is what most TASPlicants seem to be striving for) does not a worthy existence make. We make ourselves, all of us should be clever enough to know that full well. We’re gifted, special, iconoclastic… we can do anything. Everything. </p>
<p>The future…next stop EVERYWHERE. ;)</p>
