1. Emory's Accelerated BSN/MSN

   lavendersapphire replied to T-Dasha's topic in Georgia

   Oh wow. When did they bust up with this? I know it wasn't there earlier this month. Thanks for posting - I can change my program choice to this one, which would be so much better. I know they have scholarships for the MSN program and for the BSN prog...

   Oh, and I think the fall 09 thread has some interview questions as well.

3. Kennesaw State Waiting Game

   lavendersapphire replied to futurenurse0707's topic in Georgia

   I applied to the summer traditional and fall accelerated (whichever one I can get into, but leaning more towards the traditional. The summer application period closes on Monday, so let the wait begin!) and have been stalking all the Kennesaw threads....

4. How many times did you take the TEAS exam? (or other entrance exams)

   lavendersapphire replied to %63theend's topic in Georgia

5. VA Hospital - nursing program

   lavendersapphire replied to Offroad's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I want to add the program VANEEP (as well as the other programs) are ONLY for VHA employees (those in the health system). And only if your medical center/hospital is approved for the program. I work in the benefits administration (VBA) area and they...

6. Is my GRE score bad?

   lavendersapphire replied to malapata's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I say just submit and see. You never know how heavy they use the GRE score compared to the rest of your application.

7. Want to be a nurse. But.....(pre-med? Nursing?)

   lavendersapphire replied to BrittanyLeigh's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I was the premed route during undergrad (my degree was a BS in Criminal Justice and I was taking the premed classes on the side). Pretty much it just went one step further than the nursing prereqs. For example, the nursing programs I'm applying to re...

8. Pregnancy and Nursing School

   lavendersapphire replied to sstephens04's topic in General Students

   I'm a year younger than you and am also looking to start NS next fall. With that said, we've been trying to get pregnant for nearly a year and there's no way that we're going to stop trying and getting fertility testing just because of NS. To us, its...

9. For A&P1, what are LAB PRACTICALS/TESTS like??

   lavendersapphire replied to tinediddy's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I took this class years ago, and the only thing i remember is that part of our final exam was on the bones. The prof took apart the skeleton and put indivual bones on the tables (I think there was about 10 bone stations and we had 30 seconds to a min...

10. Non-nursing degree (low GPA/stats) to accelerated BSN program?

    lavendersapphire replied to excbsn's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I find that most universities (at least here) dont care where you get your prereqs done as long as the cc is accredited. They understand that CCs are cheaper financially if you're taking a handfull of courses. Also check out some traditional program...

12. Where on earth are CA students with a low GPA(3.3) applying!?!?!

    lavendersapphire replied to ChanelCinq's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I'm in the Atlanta Metro and none of the BSN schools here - Emory, Georgia State, Univ. of West Georgia, Clayton State, Kennesaw State, Georgia Baptist College of Nursing (Mercer Univ.) have waiting lists. Neither do any of the ASN programs. Though ...

13. anyones who already taken the teas exam

    lavendersapphire replied to icekangz's topic in Pre-Nursing

    The one that i had was sedimentary. Something about a river that empties into the ocean and the rock is very brittle and breaks easily. I forget the actually question, but I knew the answer was sedimentary.

14. What TEAS score does your school require?

    lavendersapphire replied to %63theend's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I'm also applying to Kennesaw (80%), GBCN says 78.9% (though they say better than the national average which is 72 or 74% so I'm not sure which one they want. Maybe it's their average...West Ga is keeping theirs a secret until after you apply, Clayto...

15. Should I retake all my prerequsite since its almost 12 yrs?

    lavendersapphire replied to shoppinggrl05's topic in Pre-Nursing

    check with your schools you want to apply to. A few of mine have requirements that certain prereqs have to be taken within the past 5 years from the date you applied to the program.
