We've got this guys! I finished my first four day week this morning. We have lecture Mondays, Nutrition and Lab Tuesdays and Clinicals Wednesday and Thursday. It's overwhelming but SO exciting too!!
I work as a CNA in a nursing home and was in the room for one death so far. It is sad, in my case the resident was in a lot of pain so it was pretty much a blessing. I'm sure we will see a lot of death throughout our careers!

Thanks again everyone! It is a smaller community college, so that has something to do with the smaller number as well. But I'm still thrilled I made it!

This is the first semester of their new BSN program so they are starting small. Normal number accepted per semester is 26. But yes, pretty competitive this semester! Thanks!
My acceptance letter came today! I only applied to the school I'm attending since it was the most convenient and my grades are good. I start in the fall! Can't wait!!!

I agree that you will drive yourself crazy worrying about what you *could* have said. If it's meant to be it will be! I had a hospital interview today too! Mine was at a 489 bed hospital in the med unit. I only interviewed with a recruiter though. Re...

It's a rural community college but yes, small group for sure!! Normally they had been accepting 26 per semester, so it's cut by 10 for the first few semesters of this new curriculum.
