<p>I completely agree with @NYRicanGirl, I am also questioning the whole TFA organization. I for sure won’t be applying for 2013, especially since by that time I could just get my teaching credential and go teach in a low performing school (many of which I have tutored at). I don’t want to sound conceited or anything, but I am not sure what else I could of added to my resume or done in my interview to make it better. I also can’t raise my gpa since I’ve already graduated.</p>
<p>It was surprising to see that in the latest TFA admissions blog about 60% of applicants were re-applying. So maybe the second time around you would get in.</p>
<p>For me, I think it’s probably a blessing in disguise. I touched base with an old friend last week who is currently a TFA member, just to see if TFA was something I should commit to. This person was not very encouraging about the whole process at all and made “institute” sound horrible although it’s different for everyone.</p>
