Any Kilgore College RN students out there?

I graduated from their LVN program. Good school. Good luck getting the prereqs you want. Mr Stowe is great for Micro.

I am a third level student & will graduate in Dec. I think it's a great program, I really like that we go straight thru, the first semester is tough because you have foundations and pharmacology, but after that each class lasts seven weeks: 2nd semster is psych/med/surg 1; 3rd semester is OB & med surg 2; 4th semester is pedi & med/surg 3 w/management. You have to be really focused because you can't miss even 1 whole lecture day or you will be dropped because it is more than a 12% absence which is against school policy. So just get everything in order and go for it.

hey Iam finishing all my pre classes this fall and taking classes this summer I will also be applying to the RN program at kilgore in aug to start in the spring. I have heard good and bad from the program but I am taking the CNA course classes in longview and people in the LVN program say it is intense but they have a good program and also heard from a a girl who dropped out of the RN program that they had a lot of pppl drop out because of the teachers well hey you should e-mail me or msg me on here i have been looking for ppl who are going in to the RN program in kilgore to share information and study well lemme know

I will graduate in Dec & it is intense, but my experience has been good. There are a few teachers who I would not want again, but overall the teachers are understanding. The key, I think, is to be prepared and don't get behind because there is no time to make up anything. Good Luck!

Hey thanks that really clears up what I have heard...AN yea I have been planning for a long time and will have it worked out where I will not be working during my school. my problem is finding people who I can study with, or that want to. is there any advise you could give me about anything i could do to prepare my self before the program starts like any books to read or anything? once again thank you for your help and CONGRADULATIONS!!!!

There are Med cards on the web site and if you do those before class starts it helps the website is http://kcfac.kilgore.edu/foundation Look under the clinical forms for the list and sheet you need to fill out for each one...if you have any other questions e-mail me @ texlady1100@embarqmail.com and I'll help if I can!

Good Luck! I just graduated from Kilgore in May. There are several bad things I can say about the program, but I won't. I'll focus on the good. One good thing is that you'll get done a lot sooner because it is a straight 16 month program. I wouldn't advise you to try looking at any of the lecture material before hand. Everything will be explained in class once you are accepted into clinicals. Any other questions, feel free to ask.

hello im in the same boat, imat tcc but applying outside the district, i was wontin to know if anyone that is in the program now can tell me what the main gpa they take. im applying for the spring and the classes they want i have a 3.3 but im gon to retake nutrition this fall. and the test "net" what is that???

I graduated from there in May '09. The NET test will test your ability in Math and Reading. I think you need a 60 on each section. It's pretty easy, well the Reading part is a bit difficult. I got 98% on Math and 88% on the reading so it's not too too bad. When I applied I had a 3.2 GPA and got in on 1st try so you should be fine.
