What campus did you take pharm? If I get the same day for the cpr; I will let you know. This has been a hard road trying to get accepted into the program; but as I been reading the different threads; actually this is just the beginning of hardship.. I know your 4yr old will be so excited starting kindergarten this fall. I think you will be just as excited as he will be too . What campus did you get accepted?

So does anyone know what the drop rate is at North Harris? I applied to another school near where I live.... but their drop rate is pretty bad. They always start with 100 students and this semester they are graduating with 20something... so Im just wondering how it is at North Harris?

I registered for the CPR class at NW med ceter on May 2nd too.

I am taking pharm during the first summer session at NH. I want to get it over with before the Fall so I can concentrate on the other classes.

Tyshe: Starting a study group now is a great idea! I would like to be part of it. I, too, am a shy person, so knowing some people before this all starts would definitely help me feel more at ease.

I just called to register for the CPR class at NW med center, the receptionist told me the class for May 2nd is a Heart Safety CPR class (daycare workers, lifeguards and etc),, its not the American Heart Association approved BLS for Health Care Providers certification. The one for the BLS is on May 15th.
Jeneecw and Nurse723 call and make sure you have to correct class.

Nurse723 I am glad you are in with the study group. I guess we can start a new thread for those who want to join our group for north harris. I think this will help alot of us to get out of the first class day blues. We need all the help we can get.

I would like to be part of the study group too if you guys don't mind... I am kind of shy at first, so this will definitely help ease the stress of the first class!

Hi you guys. I just wanted to give you guys a heads up. I'm in Nursing I at Kingwood in the evening program. It's a great program and the instructors are really nice. If you can, get Pharm out of the way this summer. I am taking Pharm with Lecture, Skills and Clinical and it can be overwhelming at times but doable :-) If you are unsure of the shots that you have had, get titers drawn, I did and was able to prove immunity based on the titers drawn. Most of the required shots were childhood immunizations so you should probably only need the the TDap and the rest of the Hepatits B series. I see that some of you have kids and I have four kids with my youngest just turning 1 last month, work fulltime, and am doing nursing school fulltime so it goes to show you, if you want it bad enough, you will make it happen. When there's a will there's a way. The Spring 2009 group was not too long ago in your shoes and when we got our letters Mody, Stacy and Soso all gave us great advice so I'm happy to pass it along. Good luck to you all and please ask any questions if you need any help. I don't know any details of the North Harris program but if it's structured like Kingwoods, I'm willing to help any way I can

Ok, this is starting to get irritating!! I've been waiting all week for this letter to come but...NOTHING!! I went online and saw that the letters are supposed to be mailed out the week of April 12th. Cyfair really knows how to take their time I thought I would find out by the weekend but it seems like I will have to wait till next week. NO GOOD!! I guess I will just pray for patience and find something to do this weekend.
