UTMB Spring 2012

Published

Hey Guys!

I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread for all UTMB Galveston's Spring 2012 traditional bsn applicants. Have you all started to apply yet or at least looked at the application? What do you think? How are your personal statements/testing going? If you guys have anything worth discussing please post and good luck to all!

I just got an interview invite!!!!! Its for 10/6 ! A whopping 2 days notice!!!

I have a Skills test AND checkoffs at the time/day they want me at my interview!!!

What do i do now?

Well, it depends on what you want. If you want your BSN then I would say find a way to reschedule... It just depends on what you want and how you want to get there...

I have emailed and left a voicemail for my corrent prof....I am hoping since she herself is a utmb SON alumni she will realize how important this is and be willing to work with me. If not, the main interview person realizes my situation and said it is possible for me to reschedule the interview. But I have waited so long for this interview I would hate to push it back and possbily give them a sour first impression just because I pushed the initial interview date.

I TOTALLY want my BSN at UTMB over anything else! But I just can't 'chance' it wit hthe interview and let my current skills grade suffer...I mean what if I dont get in afterall? that 0 on a test could mean I am OUT of the ADN program!

I would confirm the interview and work with your ADN professor. She's a human after all... and is supposedly one that is in a profession where you have to pretend to CARE lol.

I will definitely remind of of that if she is hesitant :) I confirmed the interview and am waiting on a reply from my professor... I will update when I know more!

Try studying for 2 MAJOR test (1 tomorrow and 1 thursday) AND having an interview on Thursday! My brain literally is only thinking of questions for the interview AND WHAT TO WEAR?! I have a distinct feeling that not much studying will be getting done!

I would definitely try and go to the interview the first time... I'm not sure but it seems like once you get an interview your chances are pretty good... But, I totally understand either way. Hopefully your intstructor will understand. Are there other class times?

Ok so here are my choices....

Skip the test Thursday and go to the interview... I can remake the missed exam on the 21st only it is in essay form and NOT multiple choice!

Or

Reschedule my interview....

I am REALLY leaning towards skipping the test and just having to worry about doing the essay questions over the same content.
