Teach For America 2013 Corps

<p>I agree with crazygolfer, I feel sorry for you guys applying 3dl. I found out that I was accepted 13 days after my final interview. Prepare for the final interview and you’ll do great.</p>

<p>Does anyone know how much the online activity weighs on a person’s chance of being invited to the final interview compared to the phone interview?</p>

<p>@pml161991- I am assuming the phone interview is more important. I heard of several people who just completed the interview process who had shorter one on one interviews on the day of the final interview because their selector told them that the interviewer who did their phone interview kept good enough notes that they didn’t have to ask all the questions.</p>

<p>That being said, would set apart enough time to sit down and do the online activity well.</p>

<p>I feel the online activity was a little rough. I am not sure if my answers were even in the ballpark of what they were looking for. What did you guys think?</p>

<p>@taffiedog10 no im not im patiently waiting with you "/</p>

<p>@lea415 I thought I was the only one who struggled a little with it.</p>

<p>I think I did well on the phone interview but it is hard to gauge your performance on the online activity</p>

<p>I wonder if the activity changed at all from 1st and 2nd deadline. I thought the 30 min “quiz” was pretty easy and the rest of it was all fairly subjective.</p>

<p>@crazyholfer68 I have applied before a few years ago and it was the same online activity.</p>

<p>@crazygolfer68</p>

<p>I agree completely. The quiz was easy and the other parts were a little tricky/subjective.</p>

<p>Ahhh those of us still waiting find out tomorrow about the final interview! Getting pretty nervous! Have a feeling tomorrow is going to go very slowly.</p>

<p>Good luck to everyone! I feel like there are less people who applied to this deadline. Could just be me. Only because in previous there were a lot more people posting on here. Maybe it will increase our chances. =)</p>

<p>i know! i’m so anxious to find out! either way i believe we will have a good week with thanksgiving and all. good luck everyone! we should post and discuss whenever we find out the news.</p>

<p>So I’ve been following this thread for a while thinking about applying to TFA, still not completely sure I’m going to. I’ve got some other options that I’m thinking of. But I was searching online and found this website, and am wondering if anyone has bought the book? Thoughts?
