Re: Any UCSF Mepn Applicants?
MPCali - I wouldn't worry too much about pathophys preparation. It's definitely not the easiest class, but the program as a whole isn't as difficult as some say. If you're dedicated and focus on doing well without getting caught up in getting 100% on everything, you should be fine and you'll end up learning the things you need to know to be a good nurse (one thing people in the program seem to be learning this year is that the need to be right/perfect all the time can actually be to their detriment as a student and a prospective nurse). I say, enjoy your time out of school, focus on your prereqs, and spend lots of loving time with friends and family since the first ten weeks of the program are pretty time-consuming (but they're still fun and exciting). Good luck with everything! Definitely search this site for interview tips, as the questions don't seem to change much from year to year!
