I write to do lists daily! I always keep one to fill out in class and take it home to work on. I have two kids in sports and have been doing pre req's for two years. My time is extremely valuable to me. I also have a two hour round trip drive to school 4 days a week. I live for crossing items off my to do lists because that means I am one step closer to my ultimate goal. Corny I know! But I always think of every assignment that way.

So nice to see someone ready to go like this! Can't wait till it's my turn. Love that you deleted you fb, that is something I would never have thought of but now will probably do the same thing when I start my program. Best of luck to you.

Where do you live? I'm so scared of this situation!

I really agree with starting off slow! I have been in school for 3 yrs just doing pre-req's and keeping my GPA high, and still am worried about getting into a program. The time will fly! I would focus on the science and one mistake I made was waiting to take chemisty and that will hold you back from taking nutrition class. You never know what classes your going to have to take till you find a program and see what their specific pre-req's are. I would really research schools and find three that have very close pre-req lists and start taking the classes that they all require. make sure to take chem in high school!! I don't know about where you are but here in Tx we have a program that allows you to take college level classes at your community college while in high school. dual credit. I didn't do this so I don't know that much about it, but I would look into that. You will have a HUGE amount of pre-req's and if you do them part time ( to make sure you make A's) then having one year of college done when you graduate high school would be really nice!! Good luck! You can do it!!

Did any of you have to wait to get in or did you get in right away?

I am so scared of this!! Thats why I want to keep as many options open to myself but don't know how with out having to do pre req's for every nursing program in the area, they all seem to differ on a few classes. Very frustrating!! Not to be rude but can you if you don't mind tell me what your GPA was or if there was some other reason you think they might have passed you up, I just really want to try to avoid this from happening to me!! I am about to get my first C in a class( tx gov) but have mostly A's in everything else including math and science. Sorry for your delay into the program!!

Can anyone tell me how hard/not so hard it it was to get in? I reaaly want to go to texas state but hate to do all the pre req's for this one school. I am looking at all my options and have done SOOO many pre req's and have almost all to get in to texas state. I was about to take pharm at acc this next semester (fall 12) but noticed I don't need it for their program. I want to keep as many options open to myself but also don't want to spend anymore time taking pre req's! If anybody is willing can you give some examples of your GPA and any extras that you felt helped you get into the program?

I was loking at the pre req's and didn't see pharm on there?? Do I need to take it before applying?
