Anyone at either ACU or Uni of QLD Studying Midwifery?

[hj1981]

Yep got a OP at school but not a good one!!!
Do u have to STAT test?

Thanks for your reply 3GO! I have started a Nursing degree up here at JCU 3 times! I have never been through to finish the course. Mainly due to health issues and pregnancy but also because its so damn BORING!!! So I do know where you are coming from.

I only applied for Bach of Midwifery in both uni's.

Do you know if the course structure is different?

Rhianon - As 3GO said, no you don't need to go to TAFE to become a nurse. That would be the long way round. As she said, just apply to the nearest uni that offers a bach of nursing and apply through QTAC. You may still have some time to apply now if you are intersted but you will cop a late fee of about $100.

Harmony - As I said in my PM, the STAT test is totally up to you. I did book one but when I got the practice test I thought it would be way to hard for me so I didn't go. I would rather go in with an "empty" application that a $hit result on a stat test IYKWIM. At the end of the day its your decision. You don't have much time left so you'll need to make up your mind quick.


So 1st round offers go out tomorrow!!!! I doubt that mine will be in it but fingers crossed i get in!

[Ilithyia]

Just thought that I would update...

I checked online for 1'st round offers today and unfortunetly my application wasn't processed in time for the 1'st round.

So at this stage, I haven't got in. :sad:

So please keep everything crossed that I get an offer in the 2nd round which will be on the 2nd of Feb.

Ohhhh good luck sara!!

No, I didn't do a stat test. My last formal year of education was 1999 when I did 6 months of a business degree. I finished school in 1995 with an OP of 12 or 14... can't remember

[sconeonamission]

my OP was bad! Much much worse than 14. I'd rather not apply using that, i feel i could be a bit smarter now! Well here's hoping anyway!

[hj1981]

Sara - fingers are crossed u will get in on the next intake!!!


3GirlsOnly - my op was worse than 14 also!

sconeonamission - im with u - im not using my OP either - and i would like to think im much smarter now to - but we also have life experience going our way too - i hope!
