She checked in the system and UME accepted almost all of my old BS credits. 102 credits worth! So I think other than "oral comms" every English, Social Science and humanities / elective requirement is met...and then some :)

The algebra 2 requirement is because I didn't score high enough on the CLEP. I'm going to try again in a couple weeks, now that I'm a little more refreshed on algebra. They also offer a chemistry waiver test, so I'm going to take that in April to see if I can skip ahead there as well. She gave me sample questions from the test!

If I can, fine. If not, then I'm already registered for this summer. It's too late for me to get into microbiology for summer anyway -- there are 40 slots and 39 are already filled :o Just as well...I think that's too tough a course to jam into summer!

My final worry is moolah, as in funds are running low. I barely slept last night, but then today Chase sent me another school loan offer letter. I'm not taking it (yet) but saved the letter...just in case. Advisor said I will get a letter from UME in a couple weeks telling me what aid I qualify for.

I got all dressed up, but the career fair with MLT rep from hospital isn't until *next* week. Oh, and the advisor said the same as the students...they are *desperate* for help in the lab!

Anyway, today was a dry run for something other than barn jeans and sweatshirt :P The worst thing is that the fair is right after we dissect an eyeball :spew: And today we were warned to remember our goggles cuz sometimes they squirt :spew: :spew: :spew: One student's mother told her to dissect it from the back, that way it's not looking at you :(

Oh, and in another happy development, along with several other students, I got 100 on last week's lab practical. And my cardiovascular score was slightly better than I expected -- 92, so still in A territory.

Ooo marey good for you!

Consider the dress up a dry run and good practice for next time.

I do a lot of interviews JUST for the practice so when the REAL thing comes along I am ready.

Loans - READ READ READ the fine print. Gov-mint backed loans are best. READ all the fine print carefully!!!!!
