@Hempia, Yes I have previous experience in the medical field.

:anpom:I'M IN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:anpom: My holds changed 5 minutes ago. Last name starts with "J." I'm so very excited to start this new journey in life. I wish each and every one of you the best of luck in every step of the way. I took the HESI once for UT. I have only one non-science course in progress at the moment.

ready hasn't confirmed the first letter in last name...so it's hard to know if its random or in order.

Lets see if they're going in alphabetical order....what does your last name start with???

How long ago did they change??? Its like 8:53PM Nov 1st right now. What does your last name start with????

taylorxteddy, Sorry to hear about your pops. You hang in there during these stressful times and I'm sure you're pops is so very proud of you. It takes an extraordinary person to become a nurse...he's definitely got to be proud of you.

oh, you haven't decided.....I almost started pushing you out of the UTHSCH nest.

I'm pretty sure UTHSCH asks for your work history to see if you currently work in the medical field in some capacity. I would assume that if a person works in the field would have much more exposure to the lingo/atmosphere than someone who didn't.

taylorxteddy, sounds like you're heading off to TWU. Yay! more room for some of us here at UTHSCH.

yippey!!! At least we're not waiting another month for our admission status.

Unfortunately getting into UTHSCH is all about numbers at this point. The higher your overall GPA, prereqs GPA, and science GPA...PLUS a high HESI score your chances are better to get into the program. They no longer look at interviews and really have nothing else to go by other than your scores. UTMB might be an option for you because they have an interview and essay portion that gives you an opportunity to explain yourself.

Yay! Looking back at last year's Spring 2011 thread, UTLink Holds changed Nov 1st. Let's hope this year will play out the same way.

One of my roommates currently attends UTMB and she has nothing but good things to say about their program. She says that they send out a positive vibe from the first day. Professors are extremely friendly and one of the main things she's constantly said is that they truly encourage students to succeed. If there were ever a problem she was able to use their open door policy. She has been able to establish a friendly relationship with all of her professors. I can't say I've heard the same things come from UTHSCH, but then again I don't know anyone personally who can attest to their friendly professors that want students to succeed.

Oh I'm so ready. Bring it on BABY!!!! I'm gonna burn out the refresh button for sure.

WOW!!! No one is even posting in here.
