original post from 2014, I guess things were more dire then. Landed a competitive job immediately out of school that gives all the OT i want - and believe me, i take
I'm gonna get it for the first semester for simplicity's sake; i'm in the middle of a bunch of non pre-req classes in SELU right now so i don't need even more things to worry about on top of getting...
I got in, first time applying etc. I was clearly below some of you in the alt list in terms of GPA and HESI, i can only surmise my paper, interview or background must have won them over. On a side...
