Im happy thatthey have good teachers but wow, you have a long ride, do you go full-time or part-time?

Dale DNP, ADN, BSN, MSN, DNP · May 1, 2009

I am taking 2 classes now. I have taken 3...but I don't have anything else to take at this point. It's not so bad...gives me time to relax.

Wow, you have demanding schedule

PurposebyDesign · May 1, 2009

I never really thought of my schedule being that busy i just made sure to pair up the hard with easy classes.

Im also planning on working part- time during nsg school as a nurse tech. Im not certified but I plan to transfer to that position where I work when nursing school starts.

God willing.

Dale DNP, ADN, BSN, MSN, DNP · May 1, 2009

That's a great idea.

It was nice chatting with you. I am heading to bed. Goodnight.

CONGRATS:yeah: on getting into the program!!!! I have not checked the post in a couple of days, been busy writing four essays for sociology! Imagine, handing out four essays in the last week of classes to be turned in the day of the final?? Well, I just finished-SO I just read the good news!! It took them long enough to let you know! I guess they send the bad news first.LOL. I am interested to find out what happens at my meeting on Monday with the director of admissions regarding their supposed oversight on my science time waiver????

I just took Human growth and development as a hybrid and It was a great class. It was a lot of writing and reading, but the professor is great. The hybrid is the half online and half in class. I would have honestly rather have been all in class though. If you have her you will be all set. She is the professor that has been making all the calls to admissions on my behalf...

I have taken Biological princ for summer 1 and A&P 1 for summer 2 session. I heard they are intense given that they are so condensed. I am just concerned that I will not get my A. I think it is a good idea as well that you take only one summer course at a time. I am just going to take mine all over again and apply to BA and ASN programs. Goodness knows I have enough credits! LOL. :uhoh3:

Dale DNP, ADN, BSN, MSN, DNP · May 3, 2009

I wish you luck with your meeting!! I took A&P I last summer and it was intense...but certainly manageable if you keep up with the daily work.

PurposebyDesign · May 4, 2009

Let us know how that meeting went. Because someone messed up you were past over for this Fall. I hope that they will make up for their mistake.

I think that A&P will be tough , but then again I think that you will ace it:specs: :up: .

You have a lot of experience on your side, which is awsome :nuke:. So you'll breeze right through it. I remember when I started Bio and A&P I had to study hard because it was the first time after a long time that I heard a lot of those words and some I never heard of:bugeyes:(especially the muscular system) lol.

You'll do great:up:

Hey Guys, just figured I would let you know how my meeting went. There was more to the story than a missing waiver. Apparently they did have my waiver, the problem was the over 500:bow: applicants and my grades were b's and one c in micro. She thought the plan I had to retake the sciences over the summer was good, especially if I got A's to increase my chances for next year. I am going to apply to Umass for spring Nov 1 deadline. So either way I will still be in school and working toward my ultimate goal. I know massasoit pretty well after all these years, and live close by, so if anyone wants help around here I will be more than happy to accommodate. there is a great website to pick your professors too. it is called rateyourprofessors.com or ratemyprofessors.com. I just google it first. you can see what type of professor you get before you sign up...LOL! I am so happy for everyone who got in and look forward to hearing about the upcoming things that you will be facing. Don't leave me out! It will be good practice for me. :coollook:

Dale DNP, ADN, BSN, MSN, DNP · May 8, 2009

Jreneex,

Glad to hear that you got that straightened out. The worst thing is not knowing. UMASS is a great option. I have a couple of friends starting in the Fall. 2 directly into the nursing program and 1 who is going to take more classes so that she can bring her grades up for the transition into nursing. I wish you all the best in reaching your goals.
