   Amen!!! Hey have you guys heard about this new series yet (called Nurse Jackie)? There are a couple of previews on this link if you are interested. I think it starts in June. Let's hope we are all too busy by then to watch it, right? http://www.sho....

   Aggie, you are too funny!!! AND I can totally relate to the whole $$$ at TCU and Baylor. I didn't look at UTA, but I will definitely take your word for it. I completely understand about staying close for the hubby and the kiddo's school.

   I will be happy to get summer OR fall. I just want in... and I didn't apply anywhere else. Great stats by the way.

   tlaspires2rn replied to goopsy's topic in Texas

   Yes, that's exactly what it is. I feel like I more than earned that freakin' bump too. I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a M.Ed. at a different university, then, I came here and TWU kicked my butt (both academically and financially)! The whole reason ...

   I really hope you're right! I wasn't too worried until I heard someone on here say there were something like 300-350 applicants for summer.

   Are you applying for summer or fall or either? I think you certainly sound competitive for fall. I personally think...and I could be TOTALLY wrong, that unless you've got a GPA of 4.0 and a NET above 80...that with only 30 slots....summer is not ver...

   So, I guess not hearing means they could still ALL be letters of acceptance, right? I'm just trying to keep the attitude, that if it is meant to be, it will be. You know? As long as we know that we did everything we could to get in, then it really i...

   I bet you're SICK of filling out applications....and they are all sooooo different in regards to their requirements. You'll be in by fall....no doubt!

9. TWU Fast Track Summer '09

   tlaspires2rn replied to goopsy's topic in Texas

   That's good to hear, because I do have a 79 on the NET. Unfortunately, I just missed the 4.0 GPA. My stats might get me into fall, but I highly doubt they'll get me into the summer program. Who would have ever thought that a 3.98 wouldn't be good eno...

    tlaspires2rn replied to goopsy's topic in Texas

    jtbrass....If your net score is competitive, I'm sure you're fine with a 4.0. The question is....what is a competitive NET score? I've heard of some off the chart NET scores. I agree with the person earlier who said something about TWU possibly looki...

    tlaspires2rn replied to goopsy's topic in Texas

    How bored are we from all this waiting? Maybe we should compare GPAs and NET scores again.....lol. I mean, you know...if there are more than 30 people on here with GPAs over 4.0 and NET score over 75, then I guess we know where we stand, right? By t...

    Ouch....300 applicants? All I can say is...WOW. I'm not sure which to be more stressed about the GPA or the NET?!

    I heard Denton campus is a LOT of note taking. Upwards of 9-10 pages 2 class periods per week. Parkland is supposed to be geared more toward working people (with less note taking). It still sounds pretty tough, but a little more doable and only one ...

    tlaspires2rn replied to goopsy's topic in Texas

    Yes, and it's quite a "leap of faith" considering I don't even know if I'll get in or not.

    Are you aware of the fact that TWU also has a patho phs class at Parkland as well as Denton campus? Just an FYI.
