  1. Yale GEPN 2021

    Definitely write that addendum! I'm a Covid homeschooler so I know exactly what you mean that it's just not in the cards right now to study a bunch for a standardized test. I would be sure to...
  2. Yale GEPN 2021

    Hello! So Yale is looking for you to be at/above average. Your verbal is solid but I think a 150 is a bit lower than what they want to see ideally. THAT SAID, my impression is that it's the...
  3. Yale GEPN 2021

    Yes good luck
  4. Vanderbilt Pre-Specialty Entry 2021

    Thanks for dropping in! My million dollar question is simply - how do you like the program so far? Any major complaints?
  5. Yale GEPN 2021

    My app is in! Now to sit with all the fingers arms legs and toes crossed until mid/late December.
  6. Yale GEPN 2021

    I waived! I think it's pretty standard to
  7. Yale GEPN 2021

    GRE DONE! It feels so good. I got exactly the minimum score I was hoping for on quant. ? Verbal went well! Yale is very competitive so I have no idea if I'll get in, but at least I don't think...
  8. Yale GEPN 2021

    Thank you! My impression is they're just looking for above 50th percentile, so I'm *hoping hoping* I manage that but if not I will add an addendum and then hope for the best. Or I may try to cram for...
  9. Yale GEPN 2021

    Anyone else taking the GRE soon? I'm taking it Sunday and I'm feeling more depressed about it the closer it gets. I'm confident I'll do well enough in verbal but the math I just don't remember. What's...
  10. Yale GEPN 2021

    Thanks for the
  11. Personal statement fatigue

    Anyone else struggling to write their application essays? I'm only applying to a few schools (2-4, all direct-entry MSNs) but between all the short answer essays and wanting to make it perfect I feel...
  12. Yale GEPN 2021

    Solidarity on all the homeschooling covid madness. These are crazy
  13. Yale GEPN 2021

    I thought so too, but the waiver is only for people with a master of science. I didn't notice this either, as every other school waives the GRE for people with an advanced degree, until I reached out...
  14. Yale GEPN 2021

    thank you for sharing this! And its nice to hear you got in with atrocious GREs; I have to take it next month and I cannot summon the will to study for it. I’m still frosty that they don't waive it...
  15. I know the upcoming class is still in the midst of hearing about their admissions decisions/fin aid (CONGRATS!!!), so I'm jumping the gun a bit here. I'm applying this coming fall (direct-entry MSN...
  16. Anyone else having doubts?

    I haven't had any new doubts about pursuing nursing in general, but I am very confused about whether to delay my plans, and by how much. I'm in prereq classes now and was on a schedule to apply this...
  17. How old were you when you started nursing school?

    Love this thread. If all goes to plan I’ll be 33-35 when I finish a direct-entry MSN (depending on which school accepts me) and start work as a certified nurse midwife. Applying this fall, so...
  18. I’m working on prereqs and applying to direct-entry MSNs in the fall, so haven’t been to nursing school yet. But in my first life ? I went to a top law school and was a lawyer. My general...
  19. I'm a pre-nursing student/career changer. I'm hoping to get into an ABSN program, with the goal of working a few years as a hospital nurse (hopefully L&D), and eventually going into midwifery....
  20. Seeking Advice: Direct Entry Blues

    Like a PP, I'm a career-changer, working on prereqs now, hoping to become a midwife. I'm still a year out from applying to nursing school, and I'm currently debating between getting an ABSN, working...
  21. Advice on best time to have a baby (please!)

    Also sorry for the long-windedness; hazards of replying to 20 comments at once!
  22. Advice on best time to have a baby (please!)

    Thanks for all the feedback. A lot of it was a little more pessimistic than I was expecting, but I need the real talk. I know this won't be easy, but I refuse to choose one or the other. I made some...
  23. Lifespan without Psych 101

    I'm working on my prereqs for ABSN/direct-entry MSN programs. Most of these programs require a "human development throughout the lifespan" class. My school requires Psych 101 to be taken as a prereq,...
  24. Nurse Midwife vs Labor and Delivery RN. Can't Decide

    I by no means think I know it all. Please, tell me what part of what I wrote is
  25. Lifespan without Psych 101
