Any Baker flint Students?

U.S.A. Michigan

Published

I am attending my second quarter at Baker flint. I love this school (although some of the students are bit of a joke) and some of the teachers (My math teacher is kinda well dumb i guess her famous quote: "you either get it, or you dont, what is that) other than that I am a 3.9 student and am very proud of my self. I went to school for Massage and then went back to school for RN. You have to realize that I am 32 with 2 kids and a hubby who travels everywhere all the time. So I want him home more and decided to get a more stable job. Health care is the only option for me!! ANy way just wanted to see if there are more then just me who are scared to death about not getting into the program. I WILL SUCCEED!!!! :nuke:

Any way just wanted to say hi, must study origin, insertion, function and location for A&P I. WOOHOO

Carebear, Congrats! I too have been accepted into the Baker program in Auburn Hills, in fact we probably sat near each other in orientation. How do you feel about the program and the possibility of the ADN they are trying to implement? I am a little nervous about every aspect of Baker but am very grateful to have a seat in any program at this point.

Specializes in OR Peri Operative.

I'm soo excited about the ADN program they are planning on adding. Plus the fact they want us to be the test group is awesome :D

Where did you sit the other day? I wore khaki's and a brown shirt and sat on the left side near the front (2nd rowe).

I am also the one who typed up the list of all the numbers and email address for everyone to have a copy of. If you didn't get a copy of it, it may be becasue a few didn't write down their email adresses. So PM me your address and I can send you the list.

Also, I went to that website Linda Hayden told us about and I bought everything for our uniform (it was all on sale) def. go check it out. :)I also already went to the Department of Human Service for my background check (I did that monday after orientation) they gave me the results right then and there, so all I have to do is my physical on monday and that is it. :)

But I'm like you, very nervous and grateful for my seat. It is going to be a rough year, but we can do it and will get through it. TTYL

Carebear, I went yesterday to the human resource to get my info and hand deliver the letter to baker same day. I also went to the web site and ordered a lot of the things needed. I was very impressed with the prices too! Do you feel real confident about the ADN program coming to fruition? I am not 100% about it yet but will keep my fingers crossed. Their has been quite a shake up in the baker flint nursing dept regarding most of all the instructors, who have resigned. From the top dog Ms Waite on down to Sandy Cook and so many others. a good friend of mine has been in the program since 1-07 and she told me about it last night. They are so short on instructors that for the fall she has one lab instructor and no one else assigned for the start up. She says that Baker cont's to say not to worry it will all be ok. I am hoping so for all those students. maybe this is where the ADN for Auburn Hills came into play, I thought that the timing was kind of interesting. Oh by the way I sat across the aisle in the second row in the green shirt/black pants. Be seeing you soon!

Hi Robin,

I am still trying to figure that part out, my not getting in made absolutely no sense to anybody I spoke with. Mind you though I am not the only one and I will say that some of the people that got in for Jan 07 were a big surprise to me as I would have never thought they would make the cut. Bonnie Waite gives off a lot of false hope to the pre nurse students. I feel the bottom line over there is not necessarily about the students success and wellbeing.

My current plans have fluctuated all over the place; from LPN program to Repiratory therapy, I am currently looking into LPN program through a vocational school as that would be my best option to gaining my RN at this point. Time is an issue for me now and I am hoping that one of the few irons I have in the fire will come through. I do not want to drive 2 hrs for school, I have done that for a few jobs, in particular one in Rochester Hills, no fun even in the summer. I have faith and believe that something will pan out for me.

PM me if you would like, I would be happy to talk more!

How did you not get it? If you did well on the HESI had a 3.96 if you did not get in on the first try the second try should have sealed the deal. Did you have transfer credits? Did you repeat courses?
