Brookhaven nursing applicants for Spring 2014

U.S.A. Texas

Published

I am applying to Brookhaven's nursing program to start in Spring 2014. Anyone else applying and if so, how far along are you in the process? I have all my prereq's done plus Micro, A&P II, Lifespan, Nursing Patho,and Pharmacology.

Studying is going good! I still have a few more weeks until I take the exam but I've been studying as much as possible. I'm shooting for a 92 or higher. We can do it!!

You will do great I'm sure! I just took the hesi aug 23 for my second time. First time around didn't go so well, I had only gotten 2 hrs of sleep due to my daughter being sick made an 83 :(. This time around much better, 92.6, a 100 on the math portion which made me laugh because math is not my strong suit by any means! Good luck on your test though I'm sure you won't need it, I'm off to work on pediatric dosage calc :)

Looks like I will have a lot on my plate! Thanks for the heads up! That's a great score you received on the HESI!!!!!

Yes we can!!! And we will!!!!

Y'all got this! Ap is the hardest part, so much material to study and then so few questions!!!

Do you think it's worth it to get the book?

I think anything is helpful. I have a practice exam book that I purchased on my nook. I am just doing as many practice problems on all of the subjects needed. I was told by someone that took the Hesi that the main thing to focus on the math portion are conversions....fractions, decimals, kilogram to gram, ect.

I'm not sure what book you are referring to?? In regards to the hesi I just went to the library and used the books they had to do the practice tests. Didn't matter what they said it was for, hesi, teas v, etc i used them all. For math dividing decimals, conversion of things, and ratio/proportion. As far as this dosage calc class goes, I hope y'all are doing good on it, I've found multiple errors that I've tried speak with someone about however there is no actual instructor. It's a bit frustrating especially because you are trying to teach yourself. I ordered the book that actually goes with the module yesterday. Hopefully I will have an easier time understanding where some if these answers are coming from once I have it. Nursing info session today!

How did you like the Nursing info session? Was it extremely crowded? The one I went to last month was so packed and the information was helpful....a lot of it I already knew. I am so nervous about making sure I pass the dosage calc.

It was pretty much a review of everything I already knew, however I didn't know about the transcript thing. Guess I will run over to the registrars office and get a copy of that to throw in there along with everything else. Doubt ill get in with only accepting 40 applicants but I'm going to try anyways. Was pleased to find out that they will take my patho from twu so that's an extra 2 points. Still leaves me with 28.71, which I don't think is going to cut it.

At this point I think my chances at el centro are better, I applied with 34/40 there!

Oh my gosh there are so many errors in this drug calc module it's making me want to scream!!
