1. Question about RN program at Brookhaven in Dallas

   DallasMonty replied to Samimurray's topic in Texas

   Actually, the pre-reqs HAVE to be completed before you can apply. Then there are the support courses such as A&P II, micro, end of life, doseage, etc, which you earn points for completing before you start the program. See, you get points based on...

   Start my 1st semester at Mountain View College in Dallas on monday. Good luck!

3. Brookhaven OR MountainView

   DallasMonty replied to kaliamama's topic in Texas

   Hard to say. Depends on several factors. I am not sure what the lowest # was that got in for this fall but I heard that last spring's number was around 28. If you had a really high HESI II score and if the three classes you have done are worth 2 poin...

   DallasMonty replied to modelmama07's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I am game for getting together. What is a good time and location for everyone? If anyone is on Facebook, have started a Mountain View School of Nursing group. Just search for it. Lets get something planned!

   Congrats Mustang and Mom! At least you guys are hearing something. Other than the acceptance email, we haven't heard a thing!

6. Parkland or Presby Denton. Help! Need advice quick!

   DallasMonty replied to ijuanabhappy's topic in Texas

   Try Denton Regional. Once you are a Nurse Extern, you can practice your skills once you have checked them off. Plus we are really short handed! If you want some contact info, PM me. Matt

   Dmatausmc- Welcome to the club. I haven't heard anything. I swung by the nursing office on 5/11 to ask questions but nothing had been decided. No dates for success camp or book lists yet.

8. DFW area, Is this a fair pay for a RN with 4.5 yrs experience?

   DallasMonty replied to RNRebecca83's topic in Texas

   Are these salaries your all are quoting fulltime pay with bennies? My hospital in Denton, from what I hear, start out at $23 + $5/hr shift diff. If you go PRN, you can add $10/hr on to that. I have no proof to back this up as I am still in nursing sc...

9. Brookhaven/Mountain View Fall 2009

   DallasMonty replied to modelmama07's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Karma, Yes, you CAN apply after the pre-reqs and HESI but you most likely will not get in. The past two semesters, the best I can tell is that a 28-ish got in. If you take the HESI and got a perfect (can be done but I have never met anyone who did) t...

    DallasMonty replied to modelmama07's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Kani - You are Crazy!! I can't believe you are taking Micro in the Maymester. There is so much that you have to do I couldn't even imagine having to finish it in less than a month. But I guess you do go for like 8 hours a day so I could be doable. I ...

11. Brookhaven/Mountain View Fall 2009

    DallasMonty replied to modelmama07's topic in Pre-Nursing

    That isn't true. I was lacking Microbiology, which I am in now. But, it has gotten so competitive and the points totals so high that you pretty much have to have them all completed to get close to the 30 mark. Now, it is possible to score a perfect o...

12. Brookhaven OR MountainView

    DallasMonty replied to kaliamama's topic in Texas

    Congrats KM. I got into MV also for the fall. I was initially disapointed, BH was where I have done all my pre-reqs and support courses. Plus, it is 18 miles closer to my house. The day I got the confirmation e-mail, I couldn't stand it and drove (af...

    DallasMonty replied to modelmama07's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I talked with a 27 and they didn't get it. 28 might have been the magic number which was the number last semester.

14. Brookhaven/Mountain View Fall 2009

    DallasMonty replied to modelmama07's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I talked to both of my Microbiology lab partners and they both got into MV also. I think one of them had a 28. The crazy thing is that two of us live in Denton and one in Flower Mound. It is great that we can all car pool together. I guess we can wav...

15. Brookhaven/Mountain View Fall 2009

    DallasMonty replied to modelmama07's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Trust me, Brookhaven was my first choice. But I did put that I would be willing to go to either schools. Just wondering why they would send me 20 miles past BH unless they didn't even look at that sort of thing. CONFUSED!!!
