TWU Spring 2010

[goopsy]

Is anyone out there applying to TWU for the Spring of 2010? Just thought that I would start a group for all of us hopefuls so we could share information and have a way to communicate with each other.

Have you taken your HESI A2 yet? Have you taken all of your pre-reqs? If not, what do you have left to take?

I have taken all of my pre-reqs, and I just took my HESI yesterday. I didn't think it was bad at all, but I prepared for it for about 3 weeks.

If you haven't noticed, TWU has made some slight changes that I think some people will not be happy with. They are taking into consideration the first grade made at pre-req attempts for several of the classes like A&P, micro, and another class. What do you think of this? I wonder how it will change the applicants chances of getting in?

Good luck and I look forward to meeting you!

Hi all! Im starting jan and I just need clarification on where EXACTLY we buy our books. I have to let my scholarship know. So, again, if anyone has specific info like the name of the bookstore and its location, and maybe even a web address that would be AWESOME!!

post thought: yes I am aware that most might buy books off campus/online, but I need to buy mine from the campus bookstore for my scholarship, so if anyone has done this already and could provide info....?? :)

Does anyone know what happens if you don't pass exit hesi on the third go?

You can buy all of your books from Matthew's bookstore at the University of Texas Health Science center Houston. It is located on Bertner Avenue zip code 77030. Google it for the exact address... Or you can buy them from Major's Bookstore online. They have an actual store in Dallas, but you can also order online.

WOW!!! You guys are really thinking ahead!!! After you take the course to help you in your weak area of the HESI, and you still don't pass, you will be withdrawn from the university. I seriously doubt after taking 4 semesters at TWU, you will fail the HESI. They make you take the HESI every semester, and in some semesters you take it for multiple classes. That would explain why TWU has an extremely high pass rate.

Now that I am trying to find the policy online...it disappears. But it is online somewhere.

Meet me in school if possible so I can answer your questions.

[dolsen]

Noni are you talking to me? Just tell me a time and place. If you are at school Tuesday after noon that would be great or even after 1pm on Monday that would be even better.

[noni79]

Lets meet on monday at 1:30 pm on 8th floor.

[dolsen]

Ok...I will be the short one

Hey! I was not lucky enough to have a mentor, so sorry for bothering everyone...just a quick question, what can I expect on my first Psych test? Any hints will be greatly appreciated.
