Has anyone attended or is currently attending Chamberlain College of Nursing in Atlanta? If so, how is it? Any info would be greatly appreciated. I am currently attending a technical college and have done all of my pre requisites except for the sciences. My gpa is 3.40. I just found out about this school and I am very interested... thanks.

Ok thank you guys!!! I was getting very nervous because the Atlanta campus is already about an hour from where I live so to drive out even further would be a new problem to the equation ?

You still have time to drop 224 and 302 if you want to do that, but yes it will screw up your curriculum plan. If you do that with every hard class, its gonna take forever lol. It'll probably put you behind a semester. Those classes are corequistes so they have to be taken together, unless you take patho before that. I'm going into adult health and pharm and I know some people that are doing the same with these classes.

It will be a challenging session taking all three, but its not impossible. I didn't take all three together because I transferred enough credits to take patho my first session. I know people that failed and passed. Don't automatically think you're gonna fail. You know your strengths and weaknesses and if you can handle it or not.

Patho was difficult, I'm not gonna lie lol. My whole class struggled through it. It was back in Sept and the school was still working out the kinks with everything. There's only one teacher who's teaching it right now and I hear she is very good. Keep up with the reading and make charts or flashcards to help. Go to CAS if you need help also. They're really good in there.

To me, 224 and 302 wasn't that bad. The material wasn't hard, it was just a lot to learn in a short amount of time. The other thing is that they're are a lot of check offs and skills to learn. You're gonna do foleys, meds, dressing changes, ng tubes, and etc. Go to open lab every chance you get to practice! Also, don't be nervous about checking off in front of an instructor. I know people that failed just because they were nervous about it.

I didn't mean for this to be so long lol, but I hoped it helped. You can pm me if you have other questions.

Thank you Reecicup,

I will be starting 224, 281, and 302 may session and I am nervous bcus I still have to work. Can you tell me if we are going to need all those text books listed on the bookstore website for each class

Thank you SO much for the info and advice. I think I am going to take all 3. I want to graduate on time, and I do believe that I have what it takes. I have a few hours between one set of classes so I will take advantage of CAS if needbe. I'm not on here that often, but I will follow up with some more questions if i need to. Thanks again to all those who have given their point of view. I will be in touch! :)

Can Anyone please tell me are there any fill in the blank questions on the HESI test? If so can someone tell me what part? Or is it all multiple choice.

Yes the english grammar, part for example. ____ are going to work answer choices, They, their, them, is fairly easy more like elementary school stuffs.

I ended up buying all the books. The textbooks you'll definitely need and the study guide for patho. The study guide for 224 I didn't use as much. The drug guide, nursing diagnosis, and lab books are more for 226 and for resources. They'll help with your care plans, so you can wait until the July session to get them. You'll probably use them throughout school. I know some people that didn't buy them, but I would suggest to at least get the drug guide and nursing diagnosis book.

Another thing I would suggest is to use the evolve, mynursinglab, and pearson websites that come with your books. It's a lot of good resources on there like practice questions, animations, lab videos and etc. to help you.
