    rocket surgery replied to katybusymom's topic in Texas Nursing

    Already having a degree (either Bachelor's or Master's) is a huge admissions plus. Assuming your stats are above the minimum, you'll have a greater chance of being accepted into the Spring program...

    Hey guys! It's been a busy week for us at UT! Two tests last week and one tomorrow at 7am. I scanned the last few pages and it doesn't look like there are too many unanswered questions, but let me...

    Amymit, if it's been more than a week since you sent the transcript, call the registrar and ask if they received it. Tell them you were expecting to see a change in your UTLink GPA, but since...

    Amymit, just because everything had to be in by the 1st doesn't mean that you can't resubmit updated information after the 1st. Send them updated transcripts if you think it will

    Our Patho book is McCance's Pathophysiology: The Biologic Basis for Disease in Adults and Children. You will definitely have to buy that book, and it weighs a ton as well. Chunky, I don't know. I...

    Currently we're using Lehne's Pharmacology for Nursing Care, 7th Edition. However, I'd say at least half of the students didn't buy the book and are doing okay without it. The professor has very...

    You're very welcome! Unfortunately, I don't know much about financial aid. If I were you, I'd go ahread and speak to a financial aid counselor at UTHSC now, even though you haven't been admitted yet....

    rocket surgery replied to Kiddo87's topic in General Students

    I volunteered at a hospital info desk for a while. We had a list of currently admitted patients with their locations. If someone called or came by asking for "Jane Doe," I could tell them where she...

    Gillty, total expenses are here: http://son.uth.tmc.edu/acaddept/studentaffairs/programcostsheets/tradbsn_cost.pdf Encephalon, I'm not sure if that order is right. The HESI might be weighted more- the...

    Encephalon: yes, people do bike to school and there are racks available. I know for sure there's a rack at the front of the school (Bertner side), and there's possibly one at the back (courtyard side)...

    Like I said, except for what you read here on AN, no one really talks about their scores, especially if they were low. So I can't really offer any information about what other people scored. My...
