UTMB FALL 2015

[titanic200000]

Hello everyone! I think it's finally time for someone to start a fall thread so here it goes. I am applying to UTHSC and UTMB for fall semester. I gave my teas test today and idk if that score is good enough or not. My GPA is 4.0 and teas individual score is 81. How did everyone else do in their test?

The honors program interview was really a lot like a regular entrance interview I would imagine. For me they didn't require me to do the entrance interview, just the honors one. It was a lot of tell me about yourself and so on. But they do ask about the paper that you wrote to apply for the honors program. So whatever prompt y'all had this year, know it back and forth. It's a very chill interview. They're all very nice! Have some examples to back up your prompt and so on. I think when I went our prompt was about helping the underserved population so I talked about my experiences with that. Good luck!!

Thank you so much for the information!!! idk why I just saw this! How was the program overall?? I'm excited but super nervous!! All that information in 16 months, I get nervous just thinking about it!

Don't be nervous it's a lot of fun. You may think that all that information in 16 months is a lot, and it is, but you learn how to manage pretty quickly. You're gonna be doing clinicals at some truly awesome hospitals so take this time to figure out what kind of nurse you want to be. Never say no to an opportunity at clinicals and just try your best. You're probably going to hate patho and pharm but they are literally fact based classes. Don't get overwhelmed like I know a lot of people did. The teachers tell you everything you need to know. That's just some of my advice! It was honestly a very rewarding and fun experience. I wish you the best!
