UTMB Fall 2012

Published

HI! I am applying for the traditional BSN program at UTMB that starts Fall 2012. I am taking my TEAS this friday and I wanted to know if anyone else here is applying for the same semester. Hopefully there are others so I don't have to be nervous alone!! :D

I'm hoping they'll send more tomorrow! I am so anxious! haha glad to know there are others in the same boat as me :)

Congrats to those of you in the first round of interviews. For those of you who gotten emails so far, what are your stats (GPA & teas)???And what is everyone else's stats?? I'm curious to see where we are all at.....My current GPA is atleast. 3.3 (that's the miscalculated score) or around 3.7My TEAS is a 76%

3.9 Overall GPA

4.0 Science GPA

92% TEAS score

I know it's hard, but I've heard from a current student that with UTMB you really can't just compare numbers. My understanding is that they look more at the student as a whole, and take your essay greatly into account.

Over all GPA: 3.6

Science GPA: 4.0

TEAS V: 76.7%

Just keep in mind that just because we received interviews it does NOT mean we are going to get accepted. I feel blessed that I am getting the opportunity for an interview and I am very excited! However, don't be discouraged. There are still many more interviews to come and It is not all about GPAs and test scores. I have heard that they take your personal statement into account just as much as your grades. They want someone well rounded and not just people that look good on paper! I will keep everyone in my thoughts and prayers as I can only imagine how anxious I would feel hearing that interviews started. We all have a long process ahead of us, but you just have to remember that at this point we have done all we can and it is all in God's hands. Just remind yourself that you have done your best and now all you can do is wait. The ball is in their court. I know this is easier said than done, as we are all nervous wrecks (my self very much included). I wish the best for everyone! :specs:

Overall gpa: 3.541Science gpa: 4.0TEAS: 85%My interview was for Monday morning at 8 but I had to reschedule due to work. I just started a brand new job in TMC and next week is all training sessions that I cannot miss. They didn't seem real thrilled that I had to reschedule and said they'd get back with me. I really hope that I didn't shoot myself in the foot but I have to work so I can pay for nursing school! I told them after next week I could meet them any day any time ... So we will see. Congratulations and good luck to those interviewing next week. When I went to open house they said how we dressed and presented ourselves was very important. Just a heads up!

I cannot believe I got an interview....Im stunned really. My grades are not what most peoples are. Hang in there everyone!

My stats:

Teas: 81.7

Nursing GPA: 3.5

Overall GPA: 3.2

Good luck to everyone still in the process!!!!!!!

I GOT AN INTERVIEW!!! I am in the same boat as Texas587. My stats are:

GPA: around a 3.2

TEAS: 81.7 I think...maybe 81.4....

Good luck to all the others out there waiting! Hang in there :)

Overall GPA: 3.73Science GPA: 3.5TEAS: 81.3%My stats are pretty average overall, nothing spectacular like a 4.0. Hope that gives hope to some of you guys :)

RNME81,I would talk to your profs. I had a midterm on Monday but changed it to Wednesday so now I have 3 on Wednesday. I'm sure they have other classes that you can take it with. From what another member said it seems like its a hassle for them to change reschedule your interview and you want to show that this interview is your number 1 priority.That's at least what I would suggest.

Are people still getting emails today??

I received an email this morning for a wed interview.

Congratulations on all of your interviews! That is so exciting for you all! Good luck next week :yeah:

Now for all of us who have not yet gotten our interview email, try to not stress out too much over the weekend. I know it's easier said than done, but maybe we'll hear something next week after the first rounds of interviews are over! Here's hoping! :cheers:
