Anyone applied to UF's accelerated BSN?

U.S.A. Florida

Published

I applied to UF's accelerated BSN program for Summer 2009. The application deadline passed 2 weeks ago, and I am anxiously awaiting a reply. I hate waiting! If anyone has been through the program, I was wondering if you remembered when you found out if you got in or not. Is anyone out there also waiting to find out if you got into the program?

Hi Galore,

Thank you very much for sharing the charts with us.

I was able to open them. They sure will help me.

Are you still interested in selling your books? If so, let me know.

Does anyone know which NCLEX review book is recommended by the school?

Saunders Comprehensive Review for the NCLEX-RN® Examination

Make sure it has the CD it comes with. That CD is worth it's weight in gold (in the opinion of someone who just passed HESI).

I saw a couple people mentioning buying books: I was planning on selling mine to the used bookstore but if you can get them in the next couple days (before Wednesday afternoon), send me a PM and we can set something up. I'm pretty flexible on price. You can see them and make an offer.

I still have all the summer books, as well as the med-surg book and research book for the fall and the Peds/OB book for the spring. (And you don't have to want them all, obviously)

I also have a lot of small-medium scrubs and a pair of size 7 white shoes I'm giving away for free.

Whaich books do we ABSOLUTELY need for summer? I have a drug book already, NANDA book and Dx/lab test book. What do I really need? I may take you up on your offer.

Thanks,

Tina

In addition to what you have already, I'd say you need: Physical Assessment, the Clinicals Skills & Techniques books, and the Med-Surg manual because they do assign readings from those books and test over the readings. Sometimes it's not covered in class.

My advice is to buy athletic/running shoes from any shoe store. They only have to be "mostly white" with a back. It's more important that they are comfortable than that they look "nurse-y." Most of the nurses on the units where you have clinicals wear running shoes.

I've purchased some scrubs but I'm still unsure of how many pairs I'll actually need. Any suggestions?

You'll need at least one pair of white scrubs (two for the fall since you'll have two days of clinicals back to back). As for colored scrubs to wear to lab: I know a couple girls who only owned two pairs of colored scrubs as well.

I personally had 3 pairs of whites and like 20 sets of colored scrubs...but I'm a clothes horse.
