Thanks, HawkinsRV! Very helpful. On another note, does anyone know what the hold, "Nursing School student affairs" means? It says to contact the school of student affairs but just wanted to see if anyone had an answer here first.

Oops, the previous message was meant for HawkinsRV.

Hi there, Sholman713. One quick question for now - are we required to wear scrubs or anything specific for class? I assume we will wear the lab jacket and scrubs underneath for any labs and scrubs for clinical. I'm debating how many pairs of scrub...

Hey everyone! Just a reminder for those of you who are Facebook users, please request to join the group "UTHSC SON Class of 2012". There is another group called UT Houston SON Spring 2011 that doesn't have an admin (so no one can edit the group inf...

Great to hear! I've been patiently waiting. Excited to check my mail when I get home!

Thanks everyone for the feedback. All of these are much cheaper than most I have seen. The Junior League definitely beats them all. I signed up for the free Junior League session on 11/29 and 12/6. It looks to be 2 Monday night sessions from 6-9 ...

Hi all! I was accepted last Tuesday, as well! I haven't joined the Facebook group yet but am wondering where everyone is planning to do their BLS Healthcare Provider CPR certification? I live in Midtown but don't mind driving within reason. Let m...

LindsayPaige - If you don't mind me asking, why did you give up your spot to the program? Hopefully it was not because you thought you needed to take the TEAS!

Thanks for the info, Clarker! Sounds like it would be quite helpful for me to speak to an advisor. My previous degree was completely non-science related. I have never applied to UTMB and did not send HESI scores since they were not required.

Congrats to you too! It is actually on the 23rd at 8am. I'm guessing yours is the 24th?

MT56, I just got my interview e-mail as well! It seems we have a lot in common regarding our application process. Best of luck to you!

MT56, I'm in the same boat! I was accepted as an early admission, as well. Let me know what you hear when you speak to them today. Also, does anyone know what the time spent on campus is like at UTMB for the BACC2 program? I live downtown so this ...

Yes, if you are taking the test for UT Houston then the scores are supposedly sent immediately so you should be fine. I would call UT Houston on Monday or Tuesday just to make sure they received them. Good luck with your HESI today!!

Anyone who has taken the HESI: I'm wondering if the grammar section asks you to identify the adverb, pronoun, adjective etc. in the sentence OR if it just asks you to correct a sentence w/ a mistake in it like in the HESI review book? Or both? I wo...

I sent in my application last week. I still have not received a confirmation or log-in from UTMB to confirm receipt of the application and transcripts. Did you receive this, Clarker?

Thanks for the feedback! I am most worried about A&P. I have only taken A&P 1 and will not take A&P II til the fall. I have the McGraw-Hill anatomy book as well so hopefully I'll be able to teach myself the new material that way. Than...

THANK YOU SO MUCH! That makes me feel so much better about taking it at that site. I figured that it couldn't be right but I had to make sure. Congrats on your 95! That's awesome :) Can I ask what you did to prepare? I have the Evolve HESI prep ...

Has anyone taken the HESI at the Harwin location in Houston? I am taking it later this month and called to double-check on whether or not a calculator is provided. The lady at the testing center left me a voicemail saying no, a calculator is not al...

Thanks, ForeverLaur!

ForeverLaur, You mentioned your sister has taken a HESI practice test. Where can I find HESI practice tests? I have the Evolve study guide and there definitely is not one in there. Thanks in advance for your help!

Does anyone have any advice on preparing for the vocabulary section of the HESI? Does anyone know if it's medical terms or general vocab?

What a relief! I got an email from UT Houston this morning saying that the HESI was due by the deadline. I wish everyone was on the same page, too!

Are you sure you must take the test by Tuesday, June 30 for UTH Spring 2011? I talked to someone at Elsevier the other day as I was concerned that none of the July dates were open. They said that they would reopen July 1. I just e-mailed admission...

Hi there! I am prepping for the HESI and wondered if you could send me the prep document that you saved that is no longer a working link? Let me know. Thank you!

Great job and congratulations! Which study guides would you recommend using? I have heard the Evolve book isn't all that helpful. Thanks!
