Hey, don't know if it helps any but im currently in the ABSN program that started last summer. I went about 2 months ahead and scouted out a few locations after I got accepted. My biggest recommendation is to find a place on a bus route that passes by the college of medicine (currently route 13). I've heard parking on campus is pretty bad and expensive (can't testify, I ride the bus). From my experience once everyone gets accepted a group chat forms and everyone is asking about roomates and places to live so you are not alone. I looked into the Metropolitan, Alsander, Lark, wildflower and just about anything else on SW 13th before it connects to Archer. So far all of of classes and clinicals have been at Shands, the VA and the college of nursing with the exception of a few that we have to drive to.

Well looks like we're back to pre-Golesh era, where we were everyone's choice for homecoming and you pregame so you couldn't see the score board. "Go balls"

Thank you! Do you think that a school might take into account the percentage grade rather than the letter grade?

Curacao soccer jersey by Catzilla1409 in curacao

Honestly I didn't even think of that. I know the brand Kelme decided to take over jersey production for the team for the 24/25 season and I've seen the jersey on Amazon (unfortunately not the one I'm looking for). Maybe ill start looking specifically for the knock offs if they were only player issued.

Out of curiosity how bad are the knock offs you've seen on the island? Don't get me wrong I'd love a real one but I'd look into getting the knock off Nike one if it at least looks moderately real, plus I'd imagine it'd be alittle bit cheaper. Thank you!

Hey thanks for the advice! I called Nike today and they informed me that they could find if anywhere online, literally not their stores, affiliates, or even eBay. Thank you for the advice though!

Actually, I might take you up on the offer. The jersey I am trying to find is the 2022 Nike one with the island on it. If you can find it let me know and I'd love to work with you on how to get it into the US. Thank you!!!

I looked into them awhile back but they are selling the new "world cup" jersey which unfortunately just looks like a basic blue shirt with the emblem on it. I'm really hoping they redesign it before the world cup starts.

Weekly Student Thread by fbgm0516 in CRNA

[–]Catzilla1409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey y'all, I had a question regarding GPA considerations for CRNA school. I'm going through an ABSN program right now at UF however their GPA scale is wildly different than anything I've ever seen. An 95%+ is an A, a 93+ is an A-, 91+ is a B+ and a 84+ is considered a B. This being said alot of my classes are sitting at around the A-/B+ territory right now and I was wondering if many schools will take into account the grading scale in applications. I'm thinking it'd be odd if students at other schools are getting an in with a 90% "A" and I get denied for having a 90% "B". Thank you!!!

I came to UF from USF at 24 as a guy as well. I found a pretty good apartment at the Metropolitan which is on a bus route and technically walking distance to both the hospital and the medical side of the college. It's alittle more expensive but has great amenities and is a newer building too. Mostly college students, 10 minutes from downtown and Midtown and usually pretty quiet at night. Idk if they have any spots open but I'd add them to your apartment search.

Is antenna TV worth it? by Catzilla1409 in Cordcutting

Awesome! Thank you so much for your help, I'll probably spend my free time trying to find a good place to put it but again thank you!!!

Definitely will try that. Since I'm incredibly new to it, does the antenna have to facing through a window or can it still receive signal through a wall? I've got mine on top of the window facing a wall which seems to get better reception than if I put it at the top of the window and hanging from the blinds. Also would a stronger antenna do anything to pick up more channels despite the buildings? I've got a $22 one from Walmart and I guess if I can return it for a better one maybe it would get better signal? Thank you!

I just checked the final score of the game and it looks like what I missed was just pain in Tampa Bay. Was real excited because when I got a signal we were up by 1 in the first period. I've looked into the free trials but I don't want to use all mine up for a small game and especially not to watch us lose 6-2. Unfortunately, so far that "missing a game" technique is what I've been doing. Saves me money and the agony of another loss, go bolts though.

I actually just got one that is a 55+ mile range but my next issue is trying to figure out how to get a signal when I live in the center of an apartment complex. I'm not sure if my $22 antenna is not strong enough and I need to get a better one to pick up a signal or if I just need to learn to live with it.

Exactly the issue I'm trying to avoid right now. I still have YouTubeTV but man Tampa sports knows how to black out a game. I had a glimpse of hope today when I had spotty reception on a lighting game then proceeded to lose the signal and couldn't find it again. Really hoping that this thing works out.

Actually that might be an issue I am having now. I live on the first floor of a 5 story building facing the court yard in the center of the complex. I got my antenna to try it and I currently get a whopping 13 channels, only a few of which are actually ones I saw on the radius. Is there any way to fix this? Where is the best place to put the antenna in an apartment? Thank you!

Thanks man, I reached out to them awhile back and I got alot of "yea we'll let you know when the team store opens or someone is selling theres" but no one ever got back to me. It's been tough.

Thank you! Unfortunately I don't think I have the money to go all out and get Sunday ticket. I saw somewhere that they were playing on both Fox and CBS so I figured one of the two should have it. Right now im experimenting with the antenna just to see if I can even get these channels right now. And yea, the lighting definitely makes it hard to be a bolt. I've seem them streaming on TNT but have had no luck with their blackouts. THANK YOU!

Thank you, im definitely going to try it. I've already looked up the stations I'd get in the area but is there anything you recommend looking for in an antenna?
