OOH MY GOSH. I have been in a stupid meeting for hours and just got back to my computer , awaiting for was THE EMAIL! See you all the 29th :)

No email for me either...Also Twois, I can help him with supervision. I am supervising a few LCPS/LCSWs now...I know if you have to get "outside" supervision it can get quite costly! I'd be happy to do it just to keep my mental health skills sharp!

I will more than likely be moving without my boyfriend. We have been together close to two years but he is working on somethings that will keep in in Asheville. So unless this all falls through (which would be horrible) I'll be facing the Durham move...

Twois...I hate to be the one to break it to you but mental health, in NC particularly, has not been recession proof. I have had my Masters in Social work for the last 5 years and been clinical licensed for the past 3. In that time, I have seen one ag...

Also, anyone else going through the "what ifs"? What if they get my email address wrong, what if it gets put into a spam folder, what if hungry monsters come and eat my laptop rendering me emailless? Um am I overreacting? I think not.

I almost wish I didn't know that...How am I supposed to get anything done?? And my stupid BlackBerry is not getting emails for who knows what reason...I'm a therapist I know anxiety coping skills, why can I not apply them to myself??????

Ok so its offically "later this week"...I am willing my phone to ring...Anyone hear a thing yet??

I'd also like to go the 29th!!

Hey Guys, Sounds like for the most part we are pretty similar in age. Except Kebunt, "the aged" hehehe she knows I'm kidding. :loveya: I've heard a place in Durham called "Allen and Sons" has the best BBQ ever. It is also supposed to have amazi...

Ok so not to be too nosey but how old is everyone. I have applied for another school and the age seems to be so much young. I'm 30 and will be 31 by the time school starts. I am hoping to find similar ages, I don't think I can keep up witht he 22 yea...

I too have used a very special crypted name that I am sure no one could ever encode hahaha. I'm with you kebunt. Shout out to all my peeps a SON Admissions office...what, whaaat! haha.

Twois, I hate to hear about your transcripts. I had the same drama with one of mine. I faxed and unoffical, then burned up the phone lines to the University who were supposed to have sent it WEEKS ago. This stress is crazy and I agree, the Universe...

Ruby, I agree, the GRE is about the dumbest thing ever. It in no way predicts what type of student you will become. I know with my ACT I barely broke 20, but ended up with a 3.5 GPA with a double major, for my GRE I came in under 1000 but I reciev...

Hi Everyone! So its not even 9:00 yet and I am freaking out that I have not heard about an interview hahaha. I know this is going to be a loooooooong week. I am so anxious to hear about ALL of us going to Duke Days! I'm sitting here at work ...

Hey Ruby, I've had a mix up with a transcript and the "nice lady in the admissions office" (we got in trouble with AllNurses because we used names) told me not to worry if there are a few things late. She said it should not hold anything up as lo...

Hey Ladies and Jason I really hope they look at my graduate GPA! I hae a pretty good undergrad GPA but I went to a top 5 party school, and took advatage of that type of education as well! In graduate school I put on my "serious student" hat and h...

Jason... Are you saying you heard that only undergrad grades count? That sucks when I have sparkling clean graduate school grades!. Grrr.

Hey Ya'll! I haven't been getting the "someone replied your thread" email. I though the thread had gone quite, so I checked and its been a mini party on here! Hope everyone is having a great Monday. Welcome to the new posters/Duke applicants. ...

Hey Jason... Funny you mentioned that those of us on the forum are probably some of the more savy applicants. I was thinking the excat same thing.

Hi Ya'll! I have a Masters Degree and Clinical Licensure in Social Work. At this point I've worked as an inpatient mental health therapist at a hospital, a crisis therapist, an outpatient and school based therapist and most am currently a Clinical...

Emmy you must go see Duke's campus. I went to visit in the Spring and it was beyond lovely. Stone buildings, parks, green space and tulips everywhere...of course now that is is winter it won't be quite so lovely but impressive non the less. Anyone ...

ohhhh what to wear to the interview...if I get an interview...

Welcome Emmy :) I think my statement was like 2 to 2.5 pages...I hear that this is what the interview is based on so I feel like we should give them something to talk about!

Hey Everyone! Jason welcome to the board. You sound like you come from a great background, I absolutely love to cook though I think the pressures of being a professional chef could probably rival a hectic nursing schedule! I'd love to hear more abou...

ohhhh good question.. do we get the interview info by mail. I was doing ok but now I'm starting to get nervous again...blech!
