2. UTMB - Galveston Spring 09

   tea_leaf replied to TheguyRN's topic in Texas

   hey raven. i decided to go to UTHSC San Antonio. it was my first choice all this time b/c their fast track is stretched out over 4 semesters vs utmb's 3 semesters. 20 hours per semester sounded scary. but i'm sure that there are a lot of successful n...

   about the clinical schedule, aren't we assigned to them randomly by the school?

4. UTMB - Galveston Spring 09

   tea_leaf replied to TheguyRN's topic in Texas

   hi raven. sorry it took so long to reply. it looks as if you're under the impression that i am currently a nursing student at utmb. i actually was an applicant just like you so i don't think that i am going to be much help. instead of attending utmb ...

   tea_leaf replied to TheguyRN's topic in Texas

   yea i know. i guess that's what orientation is for. i guess i'm not going to go to the heart to heart thing since it sounds like it's geared more towards your family and friends (i.e. your interpersonal support system). i would think that the info co...

7. 4.0 gpa a myth?

   tea_leaf replied to tea_leaf's topic in Texas

   regarding the comment on only accepting blond hair blue eye women, so how will this happen? also, please keep in mind that there is a difference between "minimum gpa" and "average gpa". the first one means that you will be disqualified from admission...

8. 4.0 gpa a myth?

   tea_leaf posted a topic in Texas

   For those who are applying, I just wanted to say that I think the 4.0 gpa requirement is a myth. I think some counselors say that to get students to work harder. Other students may say that to discourage their competition. I understand that nursing s...

9. applying to nursing school

   tea_leaf replied to kcalalang's topic in Texas

   i understand that everyone is going to have a different opinion, but i would say go for it b/c i don't know how much your gpa would change w/33 hrs and then later you're up to 47 hrs. i would suggest calculating your gpa based on grades that you will...

    tea_leaf replied to TheguyRN's topic in Texas

    congrats, lily. :balloons: rfs, i wouldn't give up hope now. utmb and twu still have not sent decisions letters yet so maybe someone who is currently holding an accelerated spot will give it up when they hear from other schools. maybe you will get a...

    tea_leaf replied to Iam46yearsold's topic in Texas

    i agree with you, hopeful. you cannot pay me enough to be president of a country. i would go nuts from the stress and having to deal with people from all over the world. but everybody is different. just like how you cannot pay some people to be nur...

    i heard that austin is pretty much always blue. isn't it ironic that it is the capital of a red state? I35 south for 3-4 hrs
