    @rocket_surgery: Thanks for the info about Fresh Start!That is really good to know! I was at UT 2003-2008, so not eligible---but I do enjoy the idea of getting to purge all that crap so maybe when I...

    I have a ton of W's (plus a couple of Ds and Fs) during my first degree. Like at least 10, combined...I think a few more actually. All of this was during a specific difficult period, so I have good...

    I am so hungry to read something with UTHSC written on it that I'm going through old AN threads (including the Spring 2011 one, 123 pages) to get my fix. FYI for those who also applied to TWU, we...

    For calculating science GPA, I know they use A&P, Micro and Chem...not sure about

    chaos0058 replied to chaos0058's topic in Texas Nursing

    I emailed **** a while back for stats, here's her reply: "We typically review 400+ applications and admit 100 students. The cohort entering Fall 2010 has an overall GPA of 3.3 with science and prereq...

    I have a bunch of W's! Had some major stuff happen while in school...tried to explain it all in the essay, so we'll see how that goes over. Just wondering, where have you been hearing that it's a...

    Got my Mystar info! They got everything (despite my last-minute submission!) so my app is complete, whew

    Hi Hannah! Several people here heard that...but several other people called and were told that there will be interviews. Not sure we officially reached a consensus on that, but personally I'm checking...

    I applied to TWU (Houston campus), UTMB, UT Arlington and Texas A&M (which feels wierd since I'm a UT Austin alum, haha ). Casting a wide net---hope something comes back. I'm starting to wonder...

    chaos0058 replied to twoy83's topic in Texas Nursing

    That would be cool! I'm just stamping charts, making packets etc but after putting in more time I'm gonna ask to do some shadowing. BTW, to those who only applied to UT: you saved a buttload of money!...

    Same situation here, constantly checking the mail whether it's raining, snowing, 3 am when I get home, whatever! I'm done with classes, but I distracted myself last week working on personal statement...

  12. UTMB Fall 2011 Applicants

    chaos0058 replied to chaos0058's topic in Texas Nursing

    That's really helpful, thank you for sharing that info! And that's what I figured; I tried calling earlier today to confirm, but of course it's hard to get through right now. They must be getting...

    chaos0058 replied to chaos0058's topic in Texas Nursing

    I finally sent everything in...just under the wire! I wasn't satisfied with my original personal statement, but inspiration struck over the weekend, and I think it turned out pretty stellar! Feeling...

    chaos0058 replied to twoy83's topic in Texas Nursing

    Ftrnrs2011, do you have all 60 hours of prereqs done already? Maybe they don't send one in that situation. Or do you have more than one address? They sent my UTLink info to my current address, but...

    chaos0058 replied to twoy83's topic in Texas Nursing

    Before they had all my stuff, it said "certain documents still missing" I think (either that or it was blank--might be confusing it with another school). So the Pending Status thing is definitely just...

  16. UTMB Fall 2011 Applicants

    chaos0058 replied to chaos0058's topic in Texas Nursing

    Okay...now I'm worried, because I haven't submitted anything yet. I've been working on my personal statement/essays, which I just finished...how far in advance do we have to do all this stuff?? Do...

    Thank you for the reminder!!! I have been so busy with apps for other schools that I forgot about

    chaos0058 replied to twoy83's topic in Texas Nursing

    I think you're right about it taking longer if it's not an easy answer. I emailed admissions and SON about the missing grades on my course eval and got a response within a couple hours, but my email...

    chaos0058 replied to twoy83's topic in Texas Nursing

    Okay---my GPAs have finally been corrected :) They're a little lower than the original: they used different courses to satisfy a couple of prereqs (for example, for Perf Arts they didn't use a...

    chaos0058 replied to twoy83's topic in Texas Nursing

    of course it's okay that you emailed me, stayfocus. :) here are my thoughts...sorry for the long post, everyone: my biggest piece of advice is to relax. it's a general knowledge test, so if you've...

    chaos0058 replied to twoy83's topic in Texas Nursing

    Okay, so I finally got my hands on my transcript evaluation. Looks like several courses in which I made As were just not included at all. Like Growth/Dev, Stats, Nutrition, A&P. Plus for some reqs...

    chaos0058 replied to twoy83's topic in Texas Nursing

    TOTALLY, and ditto: ugghhhhh. Hopefully we'll get it sorted out tomorrow. *internet hug*

  23. Fall 2011 UT Houston Health Sciences hopefuls

    chaos0058 replied to twoy83's topic in Texas Nursing

    That's my first thought, that transcript evaluation might result in something different. My school doesn't calculate science GPA etc, so they wouldn't have reported anything like that...plus, what was...

    chaos0058 replied to twoy83's topic in Texas Nursing

    Whoa....my GPAs on UTlink have changed too! Originally it displayed my accurate GPAs: prereq 3.684, science 4.000, overall 3.269. Now it says prereq 3.184, science 3.666, undergrad 3.0660! What is...

    Seriously, you're still having TSI issues?? I'm really sorry, it must be super frustrating! :redbeathe It's gotta be some kind of clerical error. I don't see what else you would have to "do" or...
