    The original FASFA form was a complete joke anyway. It’s hard to imagine it being worse. My favorite was having it pull my previous year tax return from the IRS and then immediately have me manually fill in the info again.

      That’s just preparing you for the real world of job applications, where they ask for your resume and then ask you to fill out all of the information that is contained in your resume.
