No, I am not in. They only placed six people on the waiting list for October and I am probably seven lower than that. Consequently, I have to apply in July, for January. I just will not have to take the test, thank goodness.

I am going for the BSN program. I, like you, was initially going for my ADN. Then, I realized I only needed a few more credits for my BSN and decided to do that instead. I think that is a wiser choice for me. I don't know if I would want to return to school again to get my BSN.

Yes I have to agree with that one to. As much as i think i would go back.. life takes hold sometimes.. and time is more valueable <-- sp? I think.. Kelly told me I have to wait until OCT before i can submit my application. because of the classes i have left. But this summer I'm taking a english one (because they won't take the one i have ugh!! ) ap 2, and stats.

BTW-- did any ya'll take stats? Please give me details. i still don't know if i should take it online or lecture. As I prefer online classes...

and in the Fall Micro, and anther english..

Humm.. See i thought i could apply in July for January classes too... IDK.. I should double check..

Any tips, that i don't know so i can pass vocab? Did any of you have to re-take it too?

Hi Texasmomma....

Sorry, I just finished finals... ugh!!!! So, I have not been on for a couple of days. I don't know what advice to give you on the vocab. I just studied the book that DSON gave me. I really think you will pass it this next time. You know what to expect now. Study that book. There will still probably be some words you won't know, but you will know enough to pass.

As for statistics.... I took it at Front Range. But, I do know people that took it on line and did just fine. I don't know where you are at, but my instructor at Front Range was really easy.

I just finished english and micro. English wasn't too bad, but micro was a challenge.

Hang in there!!! You'll pass that vocab portion. I have heard that many people struggle with it. But, they do pass the second time!

Hello everyone!!! I am applying to the Jan cohort too and will be taking my HESI in July. I see that some of you took it in May and apply in July. I was told that I couldn't take the HESI until July 1st when the application process starts. How did you all manage to take the HESI before the applications started? Anyways, I am studying the study guide given to me by DSON and was wondering if you all had any other tips. Will studying the study guide be enough for the test? I hope all of us end up together for the Jan. cohort!
