3. Brookhaven Nursing Program

   narussian replied to Amdroell's topic in Texas

   You may want to check but I have just completed the program at Brookhaven and we had to have a new BLS certification each year, regardless of it actually not expiring for two years.

4. Brookhaven Nursing Program

   narussian replied to Amdroell's topic in Texas

   Hobbits, You'll probably have the same instructors that we had, a few of them allowed laptops. The scrubs at the scrubs store are not at all fitted, they are as boxy as anything. :) There are usually 4 concurrent groups of students with the exceptio...

5. Brookhaven Nursing Program

   narussian replied to Amdroell's topic in Texas

   I'm graduating on May 12 from the program, here are a few things I'd wish I'd have done differently. 1. NOT purchased those horrible fitting scrubs at the embroidery place they send you to. Would have been more than worth the money to have gotten som...

6. Brookhaven Admittance Points

   narussian replied to welcome65's topic in Texas

   Sarah, Brookhaven works on a point system as opposed to GPA for admittance. From what I remember, the grades made in your core classes can be easily offset with a higher HESI score. The HESI is where a majority of the points come from anyway and if ...

8. ADN course from Dallas Nursing Institute

   narussian replied to nichelle82's topic in Texas

   I just looked at the Dallas Nursing Institute's website as I had not heard of it and have just started Brookhaven's ADN program. Just curious. It looks like although they have approval from the Texas Board of Nursing they are not accredited by the NL...

9. Brookhaven Spring 2010 Students

   narussian replied to redraider1977's topic in Texas

   I chose Brookhaven because I had the prereq's done for the program before any of the others. I have heard good things about the various programs, and Brookhaven's is do intensive as it is only 16 months.

10. Brookhaven Admittance Points

    narussian replied to welcome65's topic in Texas

    I believe the cutoff for the Spring 2010 class was 31. Maybe 31.25, but I 'm not exactly sure. There were 230 applicants for this class but there are usually many more for Fall semesters. I believe the class that started Fall 2009 said there were upw...

11. El Centro or Brookhaven?? Dallas ADN Programs

    narussian replied to lgtx3's topic in Texas

    I began the Brookhaven program last month. It is actually a 16 month program and it is intense!! I see now why some people prefer a 24 month program. The actual class/clinical hours in the first semester aren't bad but the workload from each class is...

    narussian replied to Alum08's topic in Texas

    I have a friend who started the program in August and when we have spoken it has never crossed my mind to ask him about books . I will call him tomorrow and see what he says. Has anyone heard when Success Camp is?

14. Brookhaven Spring 2010 and Hesi A2

    narussian replied to Alum08's topic in Texas

    I'm not sure of the cut off but it seems that with 31.23, I'm the lowest so far on this thread that has been accepted.

15. Brookhaven Spring 2010 and Hesi A2

    narussian replied to Alum08's topic in Texas

    Like bradibear, I had all support courses(except End of Life) and got an 88.23 on the HESI. it was also my second time to apply so I was able to take advantage of the extra 3 points. I completely understand the frustration and hard work put into this...
