1. Still waiting for my ATT code to come in! What should I do?

   BICU_RN2016 replied to Embie0410's topic in NCLEX

   Hi, not sure if you have heard from them yet (hopefully you have) but I know it took some people in my nursing class substantially longer to receive their ATT than others. I would suggest just being patient in the meantime and study, study, study! If...

2. Prereqs way in advance?

   BICU_RN2016 replied to YeahMan's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I agree with the previous posters as far as not taking science classes to far in advance. A solid understanding of A&P is really an essential building block for nursing school, especially if you are going to be going to nursing school part time! ...

3. I am a second semester ADN nursing student, and I cannot get comfortable around male pt's!

   Are the male patients being inappropriate, i.e. making suggestive comments/gestures, or is it simply males in general? I can understand your initial hesitation (I did not have any prior medical/healthcare experience prior to nursing school), but like...

4. Borderline....

   I found that Youtube videos have been a saving grace for me. For example, you can find Youtube videos that break down ABG's, certain diseases and their etiologies, and things like V/Q mismatch, shunting, etc. I agree with the above posters, reading e...

   Allison, I heard from an admissions counselor that we are to send all official transcripts and documents to nursingCAS as they become available :) Looking forward to meeting you all! It seems like other cohorts have started a Facebook group, would an...

    It seems to me that they wouldn't wait for classes to finish...after all they aren't just waiting for grades to post, they would need to account for the time it would take to receive and review the official transcripts. I hope they release decisions ...

    Thank you! I did apply to the Sacramento ABSN cohort. As far as the number of applicants, I haven't seen/heard anything except for what has been posted here on this thread really... I think that there are usually a decent number of applicants for eac...

    I got an email from SMU on the 31st stating that my application has been found to be complete and has been passed on to the nursing for the next step in the evaluation process. I don't know how we're all going to wait until October for decisions!! Go...
