   nikki109 replied to workinmomRN2012's topic in Connecticut

   That's great!! I'm excited to know someone. I wish I could have taken NUR 101 during the day and everything, but I took what I could get considering it was last minute. I'm hoping I can switch to the day program next semester! I did buy the book.. it...

   mz1985 .. Did you ever take the A&P exam!? How did you do? All I can say is that I failed miserably.. so off I go to re-take A&P this fall. I am taking NUR 101 along with A&P .. are you doing the same?

9. St. Vincent's part time program any acceptances?

   nikki109 replied to workinmomRN2012's topic in Connecticut

   Hi! Sorry, I haven't checked this in quite a few weeks! I actually took the competency exam on August 18th.. I was supposed to take it July 27th but wanted a little more time! Not that it helped me.. that exam was deadly! I think the woman said I sco...

10. Anyone currently attending St. Vincent's... feedback??

    nikki109 replied to nikki109's topic in Connecticut

    Yes, I believe it's $20 to take the exam. The school provides you with a sheet listing all of the topics that you need to know.. very broad though, so doesn't help too much. They do offer an Anatomy and Physiology review course which is online.. howe...

11. St. Vincent's part time program any acceptances?

    Hi guys! Has anyone taken the anatomy & physiology comptency exam at St. Vincent's? I have to take it soon and I am very nervous!! I heard it's really difficult.. I guess I'll keep my fingers crossed.

14. Has anyone applied to St. Vincent's for Fall 09 nursing

    nikki109 replied to workinmomRN2012's topic in Connecticut

    Yes, I am very nervous about it! Is there another competency exam in August? I was just nervous that the one July 27th was the last exam.. I didn't ask about later ones. I should have taken the review course! If I knew I had to take the comp exam ear...

    nikki109 replied to nikki109's topic in Connecticut

    Thank you! Congratulations to you too!! Very exciting! That's exactly how I felt with A&P.. I was thinking it probably was stupid to repeat it since I did already take it.. but I also had a hard time with the course, and had a very difficult teac...
