kaplan college sacramento

Thanks guys for the support!! Its funny I've been waiting for today for awhile and it finally came!!! So my interview lasted all of umm 5-7 minutes lol. I was prepared to give a big speech why i wanted to be a nurse about wanting to take care of people not just "helping" them and then the only question she asked me was why did i think i would be good for kaplan college and if i was comfortable with giving injections!!! lol.
I have been a medical assistant for the past three years in a gastro clinic down here in fairfield so as far as some type of experience i think i am good with that. I tried not to babble ( iam really good at running my mouth about myself..lol) which was really hard. I found out some of the sites that they do clinicals at. the two i was excited about was the mother/baby and the prison. i know i know totally two different areas. Now that its done and over with just have to wait till a fews days after 10/01/09... my birthday is on october 8th so hopefully i'll get a nice early birthday present. I guess they will give you 30 days after the letter to accept or to get everything situated??? so school won't start till november?? idk. Im getting to ahead of myself. one step at a time. lol. that would great if we all got accepted!!!
The DON was very nice!!! she seemed really sincere. I hope i made a good impression. I feel like the interview wasnt really needed.. idk.

I didn't get a good feeling either but you never know. I was told that they will accept 30 studnets and i think 2 alts. idk how many passed the hesi to qualify for the interview. But I know that alot of people tried the hesi and didn't do well. I wish they would answers questions. everything is really hush hush.

Well I work full time as a medical assistant
at Sutter. That is keeping be a bit busy. When I get home I
search for grants to apply for. Is anybody going to work
while in school if you get in?

I'm not going to work either. There really isn't any med asst jobs on the weekend anyways.
Alot of vocational nursing programs let you sir for cna boards if you want to.
That might be pretty cool. Maybe a way to get in the door. It seems like you got alot of information
out of your interview. Anything else that you would like to share? Lol

yeah... Iam excited about the Mother Baby rotation. I think she said that that one is almost at night though. Sheesh I try not to think about it but its sooo hard!!!! I talked to my admin rep today and she said that the DON said she was very pleased with all the applicants she met so far. I told her I thought I over dressed!!! she said I should've seen the ones who underdressed!! lol. At least I know I wont get points taken off for that!!! Oh and speaking of points I just found out that there is a point system they are judging us on!! i didn't know that. I knew the one in Stockton was doing that. Did any of you know that? And how many points are poss?
