I am about to finish my first semester of grad school. I feel like it has FLOWN by already. I definitely think the anxiety of the unknown has been the worst, plus I took a year off so getting back into school mode... I'm still working on. Also trying to figure out how to manage my time (big procrastinator) My anxiety now is that I won't remember all the information from all these classes. SO much information in such short periods of time. What helped you study to retain information the best? Did you ever feel like you didn't remember it all? (It gives me anxiety because I feel like we have to know it all, but in reality we DON'T we are always able to reference back) What population do you want to work with? Also if you could have done anything differently what would you have done- if you haven't already answered this. And was it all worth it? Where is your CFY? How did you pass/study for comps and praxis?! So excited that I came across your blog! Will definitely be adding it to my favorites page.

TWU is awesome I am loving Denton. I am actually starting classes tomorrow. I have moved into an apartment for the summer but am hoping to find a house in the fall but don't really have roommates yet. Did you your decision yet?

Well hmm, I just got the word that I will be starting in June, I am super nervous. Did you go to TWU for undergrad? I have tried searching for the facebook group and have yet to find anything or hear any information further than when I will be starting! ...patiently waiting.

awesome, yay! I haven't found anyone else yet who is attending TWU And I was hoping to before we start... do you know anyone else?

Where is the best place to live in Denton for a student does anyone have any recommendations? I am attending TWU which is 5 minutes from UNT and trying to find housing!

Anyone attending TWU in the Summer or Fall or know of anyone who does? I just accepted my offer today, I am super excited!!

ugh well I just got my rejection letter. Annoyed because I don't really understand why I thought the interview went decently well... but anyways. On to the next one!!!!!!

Just had my interview with WTX and it was general too, I thought it went good but I can't remember what I said I was so nervous!!

Hope your interview went great @TwinGuy7 mine is tomorrow and I am nervoussss!!

I am super nervous because a few schools are saying they haven't received a letter of recommendation but the people who wrote them for me said they sent, and some of the schools they have sent them to got them. I wonder if it's just because the schools have received so much mail it hasn't been sorted yet? Either way I am super nervous because they were all due Feb 1!!

I am interviewing next week. I had a friend who interviewed Monday so, I heard there is a lot of interviews being given out something around 100, so I am sure you will be getting a call soon! I need to start preparing... NOW!

I am keeping my fingers crossed. Being waitlisted sucked for me honestly, I was constantly waiting for some kind of sign that I was still being considered and most of the schools never gave me a rejection notice after they went through all their rounds. I emailed asking where I was in line but no one was ever able to tell me soooo that wasn't fun but... it did give me some hope that atleast I wasn't denied right off the bat. Today I received a call from West Texas about setting up an interview so I am pretty excited about that (aside from being super nervous).

I too am applying to less competitive programs because my GRE scores are not great, AT ALL! Actually they are pretty low. I am applying all in Texas and Oklahoma. I am applying to UNT,TWU, West Texas A&M, Stephen F. Austin, Texas State, Northeastern State Univ, and Oklahoma State University- because I went there for undergrad. I know some of those programs aren't less competitive but.... I applied to a few of them last year and was wait listed so this year I am hoping for a more successful go around.

Nooo just super low. ha like not even to 150.
