Hi all,

Wondering if there are any applicants to Abington Memorial Hospitals Dixon School of Nursing for the 2011 year?

I originally applied for 2010 early decision, but ultimately was placed on the waiting list. Because I wasn't accepted for 2010, I now have to re-take A&P 1 & 2 :mad: (past the 5 year mark by 2 months on A&PII). I have all of my stuff in for this years early decision and have decided to re-take the teas test.

i'm very bitter about not being accepted because i can't understand why. I had a gpa of 3.8 and my teas scores were good enough for early decision. my only negative comment from them was that I could do a bit better on the math portion. I have been at Manor College since Spring 2010 and am currently holding down a 4.0 GPA- if they don't accept me this year I think I will just go absolutely crazy!

Just wondering if there are any others out there in the same boat....

That'll be great. Just got the term 1 books list and they are "Fundamentals of Nursing" (2nd edition) by Wilkinson and Treas and the other is "Conceptual Foundations: The bridge to professional Nursing Practice" (5th edition) by Creasia and Friberg.

Let me know if you have it :)

I have the fundamentals ones. I'll sell you them for $50. I barely used them so basically brand new. The other book must be new because I don't have that one.

Is it the same edition? I would love to buy it off of you.

Yep same edition!

just sent a PM to you!

Specializes in ER.

I think you'll find that most of the books will be different. The curriculum has changed dramatically for the incoming class of 2014, which I'm sure you already know. I wish you the best of luck! It is a tough program, but you will get a lot out of it. The instructors are excellent.

I graduated in May, and just passed my boards...so they did a great job!

I am getting rid of my books as well if you give me the isbn 13 number from your list I can tell you if I have it. I bought all my books new and I don't mark/write in my books. I also have alot of other books along the way I am willing to part with such as the Made Incredibly Easy books. Just email me!

Hey GUys!! I have Size small scrubs if anyone needs them for Dixon and i aso have the books to sell if you still need them! E-mail me and let me know and i can meet you at school! :-)

Specializes in ICU.

Welcome to Dixon School of Nursing!

Hello! Did anyone attend the 4 day summer enrichment course? If so how was it? What did you go over?

Hello mommi97,

I know this is an old post but I'm hoping that you will see it. I've read your other posts and was hoping to get some advice? I also have 4 kids and want to pursue nursing school at Abington. I haven't applied yet. I was just wondering how the program was for you and how manageable it was with 4 kids? Any help or advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!

mommi97- If you still have any of your books and we will be using any of the same ones, I'd love to buy them from you!! What is your email info?? Thanks!
