1. Military Spouse - Confused about what path to take to become RN

   JamieS26 replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Nurse Beth

   One thing that is very important to remember is that every single situation is unique. While my family has consistently moved every 2-3 years for the past 14 years, I have friends who have been stationed at the same base for 10+ years. I began my sch...

2. Studying Pharmacology

   JamieS26 posted a topic in NCLEX

   I have 2 semesters left until I take Pharmacology but I recently bought an NCLEX pharmacology study guide and it says that all we will need to know for the NCLEX is generic name, purpose, and medication category. For example, Lorazepam is an mental h...

   JamieS26 replied to 90nurse's topic in School Programs

   I am undecided on the 3+1. I think it is a great program but my husband retires in a couple years and I don't know if I will have time to finish the +1 and after retirement, I don't know where we will be (if we will stay in NJ or go elsewhere). I pla...

   I am doing the daytime as well! We may be in the same classes. I am not sure what the deal is with CHE210. I already took nutrition and they applied it to the program. However, it was intro to nutrition so I hope they don't make me retake it. Right n...

   Congrats! I was accepted as well :). They told me over the phone a few days ago but I got the email this morning. I don't know anything about full time vs. part time but there is a day and night/weekend program. Day program is M-F from 7a-5p. I do no...

7. RCBC Spring 2018

   JamieS26 replied to Hooven20's topic in New Jersey

   Actually ALL my credits were transfer credits except for biology lab (1credit). My husband is in the military and we just got here from New Mexico last August. The new dean in nursing seems to be a huge proponent of opening it up to more applicants. ...

   JamieS26 replied to Hooven20's topic in New Jersey

   I wouldn't weight yourself against my GPA. I amazed even myself and have managed to keep a 4.0 while completing 50+ credits (including all Rowan's general ed courses and courses needed for BSN). My understanding is that as long as you get them all do...

   JamieS26 replied to Hooven20's topic in New Jersey

   I found out today that I got into the fall 2017 program. Lots of things are changing at RCBC but I believe that admission will still be based off GPA and the number of non-nursing courses completed. So the higher GPA you have and the more applicable ...

    Hey! I applied to the Fall 2017 program at RCBC. The program seems to be going through some major changes. I took the TEAS VI in September and shortly after they said they were switching to the HESI. Fortunately, they were still taking the TEAS score...

    JamieS26 replied to WheresAladdin's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I applied for fall 2017 as well. I spoke to someone last week and they said decision letters will be mailed NLT April 15. I am assuming this means we should get something in the mail that following week. í ¾í´”
