About Hope2bPicuRN

Hello! I consider myself to be a very compassionate and reliable person. When I am not in school I volunteer at Joe Dimaggio Children's Hospital which is usually every Friday in the PICU and NICU departments. I absolutely love it and have learned so much from the wonderful RN's that work there. I look work forward to meeting new people on this site as I begin my new career at JDCH's NICU.

    Hello Everyone! I am applying for FAU's Traditional BSN program. Could someone please provide me with some study tips for taking the TEAS V? I have only taken the HESI and have heard horror stories about the TEAS. Feel free to tell me about your expe...

    You can wear scrubs to class and clinical. I can't speak for any other campus except North, but as long as you are in uniform it doesn't matter. I never bought any polos nor do I plan on it since I have 4 sets of scrubs and it has been more than enou...

    You won't need it so I wouldn't bother purchasing it. To be honest, there are a lot of books that you will not use so I wouldn't purchase anything till orientation or till you are actually attending class. I did well without half of the required book...

    You must take the break they schedule for you because all of the classes are on a track. For example, certain classes are not offered during the 1st half of the summer semester so your break would be during those 6 weeks and then you would continue y...

    Yes, that's most likely what happened. Not the first time either. I just wanted to let everyone know so they're not waiting around for emails regarding fall registration.

    You will be given a half of a semester break during the program. Of course this depends on your track, when you start the program and if you don't have to re-track and take classes during your break.

    Hi Butterfly! This is an email for upperclassmen entering specialities which is after GIGU. You most likely received this email in error. The only schedule anyone should be concerned about is for the summer term, which I believe you all have already...

    Yes you can. They don't care (at least at North) what type of book you are using as long as you are reading and understanding the concept of the material. Some people even used the 7th ed of Perry & Potter and were just fine.

    You're very welcome and I hope you get accepted!

    I would definitely tell you to consider to Nova before Chamberlain to be honest. Chamberlain is more money and the reputation is not solid compared to other private/public nursing programs. Also, Nova accepts twice a year and I believe they will let ...

    Hi Yankeesgirl907... I'm so sorry that you're going through this. Have you thought about Nova? I don't think they require an entrance exam, but they do require additional classes. Nova was my back up school if I didn't get accepted into BC the first ...

    The following link is for math practice skills at North campus, but I'm sure it's taught the same way at the other campuses. Feel free to practice Workbook A because that's what they will require you to do when you start. Nursing Process Math

    Aww... That's not right. They should of done that when they updated the new requirements. At least you tried though. There's never anything wrong with trying. I will keep in touch as much as possible and thanks for your support all along! Best of lu...

    You're very welcome and I hope you can retake that test! If the dean doesn't get back to you then I would say you can probably ask the central campus testing center instructor that is in charge of scheduling. I think you still have a shot! :)
