Should I become a nursing practitioner? and other questions

  1. Your stats and rank would indicate you are a very likely candidate for admission at UT Austin. They have a fantastic nursing school and if that is your "goal" school then by all means apply. Are you currently living IN Texas?
  2. More importantly, have you shadowed an RN/NP to see what they do on a daily basis? Have you had any healthcare related classes in school?
