I drove to Memphis and saw what the area was like and it is no where near as bad as some folks were saying. I am now officially excited about this and I'm anxious to get to January! Now to get uniforms, ID's, get money for books, oh and pass calculus. So much to do. anyone else attend orientation or have a date coming up?

I'm glad that you're able to put some of your fears to rest! I'm sure everything
will work out fine. Good luck with calculus!

I am still playing the waiting game, but I was in the program once before (had to w/d due to $$$ and kids) but I remember orientation very well! It really made it seem "final"! That was so exciting!
I'm glad that you are finding it better (sure beats finding it worse!) than you expected.
How much longer for calculus? Are you doing the once a week drive?
Keep us updated!!
Woogy

Glad Memphis isn't as bad as you had heard. Dh's brothers and sisters (all 9 of them!) live in Memphis so we're down there at least once a month. My SIL is an RN at Methodist and can't wait for me to graduate so we can move there.
Good luck to you :)

My orientation isnt until Jan 5th and classes start Jan 10th !!! I do have a meeting with the guidance counselor on Wednesday so I should be able to get lots of info from her. I have a huge packet of stuff to fill out and my physical is on Friday.

I am still doing great in calculus. I have completed 5 assignments and I'm understanding everything, thanks to the standard deviants DVD's. I take my final on Dec 22nd. Wish me luck!
