    HI Girls

    Just wanted to see how you're doing! Did any of you put nursing as a 2nd preference?? I've just changed my preferences to put Nursing at Gold Coast and then nursing at Logan.

    I'm trying to find out if i did nursing par time next year whether or not I could then transfer to B of Mid fulltime!!! Everyone I speak to gives me different answers!

    Hi all

    Well I ended up deferring for a year. Am a little sad, but I decided it was the best thing to do. I was also debating whether to just go back to my nursing degree, as I can do it externally, but my heart isn't in it anymore. Good luck to all of you!

    Hi Mama, when I was querying about getting into BMid at UQ a couple of years back. (I had a rank of 80 and needed i think an 86 to get into UQ) the guy from QTAC told me that if I did 6 months of fulltime nursing subjects and got a certain GPA then it would increase my rank enough to get into UQ. He did stipulate it had to be fulltime for some reason. perhaps because the results in the second semester wouldn't be finalised in time? I dunno.

    Bon, agree with hj. You've made the best decision for your family and you have BMid to look forward to in 2011.

    hj, i think I'll be waiting til the major offer round in Jan to find out. I don't hold much hope of an early offer. waiting waiting waiting. . . .

    AFM I'm debating whether to change my second pref from BMid at ACU to B Nursing externally through CQU. I just figure would be easier to manage around work and family life then traveling to bris to go to ACU.

    Mara - decisions decisions!!! tough hey! the travel might not be so bad - depends on ur timetable also! if we get into ACU together u could always meet at my place and than we could travel in together! just an offer thats there if u need!
    But have a think about it - is it too late to change preferences?

    Well ladies I rang Griffith the other day to get them to re-enrol me after my leave of absence and I also asked to be transferred to Logan campus, but guess what... they didn't process my withdrawal for 2 subjects when I put it in, so my GPA is now sitting at 3.25 which is too low to transfer...
    So I've sent them a big long cranky letter with all my medical certificates (I withdrew because of pregnancy sickness bigtime), so now I have to do the waiting game to see if they will process it and then go from there, I just can't travel up to Nathan campus everyday, too much with DS.

    How are you all going with your offers, anyone else doing a BN at Logan next year?

    Mara - thanks for that info!


    So sorry to hear that Ella!

    I hope it all gets sorted out soon. I've applied for B of Mid at Logan, then nursing at GC and then nursing at Logan.

    Have heard there have been lots of applicants for Midi!!! so am thinking Nursing will be where I start initially!

    Mamasupha- Don't worry even if you get nursing, I found the first semester of nursing soooo interesting, lots of stuff to learn! And you can always transfer to Midwifery after a little while...
