1. NWFSC - North West Florida State College Nursing Program Fall 2011 hopefuls

   ja1616 replied to OnaTrek's topic in Florida

   Hello Silika! I'm currently in the NWFSC ASN program and I think I can answer a few of your questions. They have changed the application process slightly since I was admitted, but for the most part, if you have 100 points, you should get in. I know ...

2. Has anyone here gone to the Northwest FL St College (OWCC) RN Program?

   ja1616 replied to bjbbeauchamp's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Sounds like you're on the right track. I know they slightly changed the points system so I'm not sure, but if you can take Micro in the summer with ********* it is WAY better than with *****. I know firsthand because she taught us for two weeks whil...

3. Has anyone here gone to the Northwest FL St College (OWCC) RN Program?

   ja1616 replied to bjbbeauchamp's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I just started the NWFSC RN program this fall. I know a girl who is in the PJC program and from what I heard NWF is better. The programs are set up differently and if you live in Destin it would be a really long drive. Not all clinicals are at the ho...

4. Some advice about A&P I & ll and preparing.

   ja1616 replied to windmill182's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I just finished taking A/P 1 and 2. I don't think you need to buy or read any books before class; all instructors test on different material. I took all the notes (didn't really pay attention to what the instructor was saying b/c he would go way too ...

   ja1616 replied to ja1616's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Yeah, I noticed early on that whatever we are studying in A/P 2 we are starting to learn a little about in A/P 1. I found that I would get the classes mixed up sometimes when studying because I knew more information than needed for A/P 1.

   ja1616 replied to ja1616's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Yep, A/P 1 is not a pre-req for A/P 2. Everyone I talked to (my uncle, he's a nurse, my A/P teachers and the counselor) all recommended that I did not take them at the same time. I am glad I didn't listen (didn't really have a choice), at the same ti...

   ja1616 replied to ja1616's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Yay! That makes me feel a lot better. I am taking A/P 1 with Hillis and A/P II with Wilderman. Are you taking A/P right now?

   I am taking A/P 1 and 2 this semester (have A's in both) and if I get at least an A and a B, then I will have 100 points. How many do you have? Is this your first time applying?

   3,000?! Whoa, I had no idea. When I talked to the counselor back in December she said so far 300 had applied already. I figured that was an average of about 100 per month up till April. Good luck to both of us!

    Anyone applying to NWFS? I haven't seen any threads about people attending this school. Just wondering if I'm the only one out there...

    ja1616 replied to ja1616's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Yay, congrats to you too! It feels pretty good, doesn't it?

12. It's half over!

    ja1616 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

    I am taking A/P I and II at the same time and we just got our midterm grades. I have a 95 average in both classes and I'm super excited!!! If I keep up the pace, I will get all my points for entry into the nursing program and have a REALLY good shot ...

    Thanks :) Good luck to you too! Jessica

14. A/P I and II

    ja1616 replied to ja1616's topic in Pre-Nursing

    There are a few courses that have to be completed before being accepted into the program. The only ones I have left are A/P 1/2. I normally wouldn't have chosen to take them at once, but the decision to apply for next term was made very quickly. Sinc...

15. A/P I and II

    ja1616 replied to ja1616's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I am not working, but I do have two kids. My husband works twelve hour shifts (3 days on two days off sorta schedule), so I can't count on him to always be there. These are the only classes I will be taking this spring semester. I have to take them a...
