Re: Anyone Starting At UPMC Shadyside School of Nursing?

I also took it today, first i must say i liek the way that school is set up. i took my test in the Pharmacology lab. Noel did you see me i was the big tall geeky guy. Anyway i prolly failed the science wasnt hard neither was the reading but some of the math i had trouble with and the antonyms were trickey. WHat is the highest possible score you can get on that exam. I hope you did great NOEL good luck

Andy, were you sitting over by the door? I might have been seated behind you.
I saw your other post ( http://allnurses.com/forums/f198/psb...ml#post1625909 ) and wanted to comment that we have to get in the 75th percentile on each section. Meaning, if a number of other students have trouble with, say, science, then you could, hypothetically, have less that 75% right and yet still be in the 75th percentile. Hopefully, this will work to both of our's advantage. I'm sooo looking forward to receiving my scores in 2 weeks!

Just watch everything you say and do - both with classmates and instructors......alot of backstabbing. School needs to be revamped - daylight is bad, but I heard evening is worse.

Hello, Dreamlady. Thanks for the advice, might I ask if you are a current Shadyside student?

Thanks Andy. I'm not too concerned about the backstabbing. There is some of that at the school I am currently, and I try to ignore it, but I have classmates that the instructor's attitudes/actions bother so much that it impedes with their studying. That's not me.
Just think, scores get mailed out next week!!
