Anyone just admitted to the Vermont Tech program?

I just had some ginger peach tea at the new cafe in Bennington. Awesome! I'll be frequenting there if I get accepted!

Isn't the placement exam the TEAS? No? Well, crud then, I have no idea what exam it is! How do you know what to study? March 5 sounds like the week I'd want to be taking it also.

That said, what part of the application are you missing still? I did the online one but am unsure as to what else I need to do besides transcripts.

Snow. Again. I have to drive to Jersey and back tomorrow - here's hoping the "and back" part isn't so rough!

Maybe the Placement exam is the TEAS thingy..we shall see.

The only part of application I am missing is Placement exam.

You need two letters of recomendation as quoted from VTC Guide is:
Arrange for two letters of recommendation that address:
Work ethic;
Communication;
Potential for adaptation to a fast-paced clinical environment;
Potential to competently/compassionately deliver health care to clients across the lifespan.

New Joisey eh in a snow storm?? gees, I'm gonna stay on top of the hill here and watch it snow......that's why I moved here.

as they say in Joisey,

Ah, OK. Just making sure I wasn't missing anything. I'm working on the letters.... trying to wrangle up two folks to write them.

I looked and it's not the TEAS, but some "accuplacer" thing. Which is good because the TEAS has a good bit of science that I'm lacking.

So far, so good and no snow! Lucky you to hang up in the hill today I'm going to start my mad dash and back here in a minute.

Dalgal,
Geesh I thought you were one of those one time posters.

RE: VSAC, I briefly went to their website, is there a VTnursing thingy there..or was it elsewhere??

I had talked to VTC this past Wed. and they said they still have a "few" openings in Bennington, but she was not specific, I will make the appointment for their placement test today, for next week. I probably could handle the Accuplacer better than TEAS at this point. The real problem for me right now is Algebra or the fact that it's been waaaaayy to long since having taken it, although at work I am always using negative and positive numbers and meausuring to the 1/1000 of an inch.

NEK, how much snow do you have up there? When I was looking for a house we did check out a few places up there, but it was a little too remote. this is coming from a guy who lived on a small Island in the Bahamas for 15 years, no phone, no tv, no newspapers, no arts, just a lot of girls in bikini's who just could not wait to....oh nevermind.

Anyway Stewarts is a C-Store based out Saratoga Springs they have about 400 stores in NY, Western Mass and Southern VT. They have the best Ice Cream with neat flavors and their milk is constantly rated in the top 5 in NY State for the last 6 years that I have been here.

I am kind of concerned aout Brandytab, as she was going to NJ during that last snow storm we had, I have not heard from her since, I hope she is ok.

I am thinking that after the placement exam, I am hoping to maybe at least getting a conditional acceptance, where I would have to take whatever courses VTC recommends this summer at CCV to get in full time this fall.

A "no light" town?? not even a blinking one??

As they say..we shall see.

...Brandy and I live just across the border from VT, she lives parallel to Bennington and I live about 35 minutes north from Bennington, but I work in Arlington.

From the time of your post looks like your a night owl too. I work 2nd shift hence my early AM posts.

I will check out a little more thoroughly the VSAC.

Thanks a bunch,

Mark
