Unfortunately no. I guess it just wasn't meant to be. Good luck to you!

I have a phone interview, but I was just curious, since you have a final interview, have they informed you of where the new regions will be for this coming year? Also when do you get to sign up for a final interview?

I figured I would join this convo, as I'm about to complete the online activity. I applied and got an invitation directly to the final interview.

tfa2013--I wasn't informed of any new regions and don't get to pick an interview time until after the phone interviews are complete.

I've done it, it really doesn't have to be 2 hours, you might knock it out in 1:30

Finished my online activity! Mookie you were right, it didn't nearly take my as much time as they allotted.

That's funny to me that you want to stay in New York. I am in Texas, Dallas area, and the only placement in the south I would accept would be South Louisiana. Otherwise Baltimore is where I have my heart settled on, but Greater Philly and Memphis are other locations I would like as well.

Do you know what you would like to teach ?

I like the east lol I've been in LA my whole life I need a change of scenery. But definitely Early childhood education, and special education.

Congratulations Rome345 on making it to the final interview! Would you mind sharing some of what you've found through your research? There's a lot of stuff out there on TFA!
