   iCme2 replied to MorganB's topic in Texas

   El Centro campus really has a nice facility. Lecture halls are stadium style with outlets for laptops whereas Northlake is on the back wall or side wall. Not to mention El Centro's lab....And if you like to complain directly to the director of nursin...

   You can take your Hesi at the south Irving campus as well. They are more lax there, allowing students to take all the time they want and have their restroom breaks. Well that was what they were doing last year. GL

   You'll do fine! Just keep an open mind. Other costs are uniforms, ATI fee, printer inks, parking fees if at El Centro, etc... Start saving if not already!

   Not sure but they will send you info about the fingerprinting later on after your first meet. Drug screening is random after class starts. Be sure not to take any funky herbs. They will show up randomly and everyone will do the pee test.

7. ATI Fee

   iCme2 replied to breezy7's topic in General Students

   We're charged around $170 for our first semester. We all felt it was a waste of money since it was a summary of our Fundamentals book. We'll be charged again next semester. Although, we can opt not to pay for it just like not buying books. But the co...

9. EL CENTRO ADN - 1st semester

   iCme2 replied to ajpesina's topic in Texas

   No problem ajpesina. Both campuses share instructors. Unfortunately you do not get a choice on who your instructors are. You will be assigned one. In addition, you will not get to pick your clinical site either (unless you get lucky). You will howeve...

    I agree with i3rns's comment wholeheartedly. I came in the program knowing how disorganized it is based on experiences from current students so it was nothing new to me. However, most of my cohorts weren't aware of this and complained endlessly throu...

    I remember going through this last session. I would suggest you guys buy some NCLEX books and start doing the questions. It will give you an idea of how your class exams are like. It's not like taking A and P or Micro exams. Those are easy tests comp...

    Sarah, use this site: Hesi vocabulary flashcards | Quizlet Some of those words are on the exam for sure. My advice is to take the vocab section last. The reasoning behind that is, when you do the reading and grammar, some words are defined for you. W...
