Where was I when UT decided to change the criteria for the entrance exam from the NET to the HESI? I am so upset right now. I did so well on the HESI and now I have to wait another application period to apply. :crying2:

I am not sure about this but I heard after Fall 2010 application, they will now require the HESI instead of NET. So as far as I know for Spring 2010 it will be the HESI.

What are you guys going to put in your resume?

I absolutely have no work experiences.

How far back are we suppose to go?

Do we list some of high school achievements and such?

Up Vote Up Vote ×

Haven't gotten an interview letter (yet! I'm very confident I will get one) so I don't know the details about the resume requirements, but do you have any volunteer experience? You could put that on there instead of work experience.
