   IslandRae replied to Tangerine.atl's topic in Chamberlain College

   Hi All, I've also been accepted for a September start!!! I scored a 93 on my HESI, I don't know what my GPA is that they used, because I don't know what classes they transferred in from my prior degree. There are about 50 questions in the math and ...

   @phrozenone Not many nursing schools have a dosage calculation "class". They teach you the stuff, which is not hard. I went through the calculate with confidence book and it only took a week or so. It is very easy, especially if you understand th...

3. Chamberlain BSN program opening in Atlanta???

   IslandRae replied to jennys77's topic in Georgia

   I went to the open house this past Tuesday, and met the Dean and a couple of faculty/staff members. The campus is nice and very high tech. I definitely feel that there will be an intimate feeling in the classroom. It is expensive, but also remembe...

   @karamarie, Will do! I just have to figure out how, I've been having problems since the other day. Where does your friend live. The main place I work is looking for people also. It is in Roswell. The other places want 10/11pm -6/7am PRN.

   IslandRae replied to IslandRae's topic in Georgia

   Hey everyone, it's been a while. I've been busy working. Obviously I did not get in this past spring, "supposedly" they had no room to take anyone from the stand-by list. For those of you that are confused because of the conflicting information, g...

   IslandRae replied to IslandRae's topic in Georgia

   Yup...I believe u need to maintain a C average. You make A's to get into the program and C's to stay. Hopefully, I will be trying my hardest to continue to get A's if I get in.

   IslandRae replied to IslandRae's topic in Georgia

   @karamarie, Still waiting. F said that they have to wait until final exams to see if there will be any room. She sounded optimistic, and when I did a class search, there are 30-50 spots open for the classes I would need to take. So I have my finge...

8. KSU accelerated RN program Spring 2012

   IslandRae replied to UGAgal's topic in Georgia

   @isabunny, it depends on the statistics of your competition when you apply. I know of someone with a 3.1 GPA that is almost finished with the program now. On the other hand, I know of people with 3.3 GPA's that did not even get the chance to interv...

9. KSU accelerated RN program Spring 2012

   IslandRae replied to UGAgal's topic in Georgia

   Hey NGgirl and anyone else reading that is on standby. I talked to Fran yesterday and she said they have to wait until grades are calculated and to keep my fingers crossed. She also reiterated that there are not a lot on the stand-by list and we sh...

10. Kennesaw State BSN Fall 2012

    IslandRae replied to IslandRae's topic in Georgia

    @danceluver, I actually don't have time to scan all those pages. It's a lot because it covers all sciences (physical and earth, chemistry, anatomy, biology, physics). If you are near a Barnes and Noble, you can go in the store and use the book to s...

    IslandRae replied to IslandRae's topic in Georgia

    @danceluver, I supplemented my science studying with the Kaplan Nursing School Entrance Exam study guide because the TEAS study guide doesn't cover a lot of science compared to what was on the test. Also, here is a link to the admissions office maili...

    Yes I am Jamaican...LOL. I haven't started my job yet, but looking forward to it. Which school are you currently attending? Good luck on your project.

14. Prospective KSU Male Applicant

    IslandRae replied to brumble's topic in Georgia

    @karamarie, I wish I could say that they use a lottery system. According to F and S, they themselves have told me that they rank all the students and then select the top 140, or whatever number they decide on for that semester. However, if that was...

15. Prospective KSU Male Applicant

    IslandRae replied to brumble's topic in Georgia

    @karamarie, yes they told me reasons why, but I think the experience is different for everyone. Some say that the the tests are not fair, too much busy work, lots of cliques between the students, would like to focus more on hands on skills, instead ...
