  1. Austin, TX

    GrayMatter replied to 3dogs1cat's topic in Texas Nursing

    I'm also a native of Austin! This little cowtown has changed a lot the last 20 years, but it's a wonderful place to live. I have two shelties and along with our kids we take our doggies everywhere...

    GrayMatter replied to beccabee's topic in Texas Nursing

    Thanks for the info! But oh man those odds aren't too good. My ranking score is 53.29, but clearly that may not be good enough if they are only taking 25% of those even taking 1105. I am hoping for...
