JMarie.......breathe and relax (that is what I am telling myself too) You will have your stuff in time and just in case bring the unofficial hs transcript and just tell him that the hs was ******* you around and being too slow - but please find a more eloquent way to tell him!

Keke - I am dying to change the subject too so hopefully by next week there will be a different thread with a different title that says something positive! I didnt want to mail my stuff in early because I was paranoid that it would get lost in the shuffle - On the day of the NET when I went to give my name - they didnt have it so I was sweating bullets until the woman found my app and said she forgot to put my name on the list!!

I am shocked about Michael J too - Keke I remember watching the video too - didnt MTV announce in plenty of time so we could all gather around the TV to watch it - was it on after school or at nite? I feel like I remember that I was psyched to get home from school to watch it - what year was that? Was it before VCRs were popular (oh god now I sound geriactirc!!)

Have a good weekend guys and Jmarie - post if you are feeling overwhelmend - it seems to help when reading this thread.

OK....I've got all my stuff together and JMarie - my statement is way more than 200 words! Now I feel sick to my stomach and I know the feeling wont pass until I know one way or the other. I am taking all of tomorrow off because I dont think I will be able to function at work!

JMarie....cant wait to hear your experience - I was sending positive vibes your way.

ok... I am alive! woohoo...lemme tell you the first minute I thought I was going to pass out!! but then I got over it real fast as I was listening to his every word! As mentioned before he mentions how intensive the course really is...how if you are already in healthcare is advantage.. I did have time to speak coz I made sure I did...I wish I thought of more to say I was in a half comatose state i think sitting there nodding my head up and down to death like a bobblehead...

the first thing he asked me was why I wanted to go into the program..That was when I was forgetting how to breath and fumbled my words..not soo smooth but the rest I feel went very very very well... I got a smile out of him which to me felt like victory! I am applying for day and he did say to me that those spots are filling up quick and last interview is Wednesday so someone booked after you! More people in our way!!! ..Grrr...lol... He did ask me about night/wkd sched I said ill make it work if I got in...I just want in! It would suck though...work would be on more days with school then day program but 10 months wont kill me...ill handle it...he talks with lady on Wednesday about who will fill rest of spots...They send the letters out then...and we hear if we get in or are on a waiting list in 1 week...

I was very organized and had all my stuff together..I am just so mad about the most important question he asked me and I was fumbling so bad...good communication skills my butt!!!

I do feel it went well and will just pray for the best...I did have to get a something ?? background check related notarized befoer my applicationw ould be complete because I am out of state..I went straight to the bank and had it done then I went right back there...he was with another applicant...his door was open so I heard EVERYTHING! The individual did not have his personal statement!!!! My jaw hit the ground... he was like "will this affect me getting in?" and he was like "no it will not dont worry about it"...WHAT? It was on the list of requirements...i was wondering if he said that to avoid confrontation.....he had medical experience but seemed very unorganized....I won't lie I feel good knowing that I had my interview the same day as that individual...I wonder if they pick one a day..if that makes sense...he did look at my statement and my letters of rec in front of me..not reading in entirety but skimmed it and did read a little bit..he was shaking his head up and down and muttering good that looks good.....so anyways it was about an hour long...hey who knows sawyer we could hopefully be in the same class together!!!

GOOD LUCK TO YOU!!!!! GOOD VIBES YOUR WAY!!!!! LET US KNOW EVERYTHING!!
