Stopthat

I am SO frustrated at Embark. It had me edit last year's unfinished application for the 2018-19 cycle, up until last week. Today (campus deadline), I cannot access any part of what I already filled in, and it tells me to start over under a new account. I have been uploading eleven video clips (totaling 50-minutes) since 2pm and it is now 11pm. Around 10:30pm, it finally finished uploading and was in the process of converting, when it suddenly logged me out. When I logged back in, I had to start the uploading all over again. I was using Chrome on a Mac and also tried with Safari. I sat in front of my computer and did not let it go to sleep, yet Embark kept logging me out when the upload was almost over.

@Sound+Vision I sent you a PM.

I don't have any more nails to bite, but I gnaw on them anyway...

This forum might as well be renamed "perfectionists suffering from OCD and anxiety."

Huge thanks to whoever fixed the 2015-16 data! On a side note, someone keeps writing on my line. Stopthat!

and here's to us being a small whale together. I had 4 dozens of Krispy Kreme in 4 weeks. Is that too many donuts? probably...

Someone deleted all 2015-16 Study/Research applicants' data. Only the ETAs are listed. Does anyone have a back up of this data? If so, thanks in advance for fixing this major blunder.

Hi, hang in there. I am going insane as well, and have to force myself to move on. I was offered a big discount to a summer program that may overlap slightly with Fulbright dates, and couldn't commit to any plane tickets yet. Because we'd take the Fulbright offer in a heartbeat (whenever it may be!), it's making other decisions very difficult. The huge IFs are really complicating our lives, and I think we may need to go on with the more concrete choices.

Hey there, Germany research in neuroscience person, CONGRATULATIONS on your alternate turned principal status!!!!

LOLOLOL! You will not get to school in time from west LA. Try 45 mins for Pasadena (or anywhere else.)

Yes, I crave for any positive votes! And we should at least get 20 votes per day. Some of us live on this forum, y'know.

So I applied to my NY summer program at the last minute, and just received an offer of 40% off on the tuition. Huzzah! Hope everything works out anyway

consolation for all wonderful folks who were not selected
