    I couldn't agree more with punkydoodles!! Things change in the blink of an eye - and as punkydoodles told our class 'the key to surviving this school is flexibility' And she wasn't joking. You kind of...

    Also - I have a blog about my time at utmb...it's been a work in progress since I've never blogged before (not to mention the lack of free time!) but feel free to check it out! Rocker Ryder also has...

    Sorry I didn't respond sooner! I haven't been on here in a while. To answer your question - yes, there were people who were accepted without an interview but it's very rare. They had to have a...

    I agree with ledestiny & punkydoodles...take your time with your statement! My GPA wasn't considered 'competitive' (3.1 overall & my science GPA was significantly low ) and my Teas score was...

    Same here. I can't go above $600 and I don't have a washer, dryer, OR microwave so it'll be nice to have those included. Anything I can do to save

    Yeah, a friend of mine told me about the high school traffic, too. For the price, I might be able to make that sacrifice. My brother lived in Windsor Estates and he like those a lot! They're out of my...

    If you go back a few pages, you'll read where some people have talked about the interview process. It's very laid back, don't be nervous! You're basically going to have a simple conversation with your...
