Thank you all for your well wishes.
Tonight was my first class, English. I’m reading over the assigned reading and what do you know? It’s about critical reading. Some of the bullet points are – Are the facts really facts? – Are the opinions adequately supported? – Is the material current? – Are the sources and author trustworthy? – Is the reasoning logical?
All I could think about as I was reading was “Huh. It’s no wonder the WTBTS strongly discourages higher education.” If all, or hell, even a quarter of JW’s critically read the literature produced, there would surly be fewer JW’s. I can’t count how many times the WT has misquoted someone’s writing.
JakeM2012 - Keep your grades up on your prerequisites it counts when trying to get into nursing school. Here in Colorado this is the first year that the nursing program is “competitive” based. I have to maintain a 3.8 GPA or better to possibly be considered for the nursing program once the prerequisites are done. It used to be you were put on a waiting list, which got to be a 3 year wait. Now, no more waiting lists. Those who performed the best will have first crack at nursing school. I will be able to apply at multiple nursing schools when the time comes, but my best chance at getting in will be through one of the 3 CC I am attending. I have a long road a head. I’m excited.
