Applicants to PDX area Nursing Schools 2010

Published

Hi fellow applicants for 2010!!

I wanted to start a thread for all of us who are applying to various nursing schools in the area for 2010. I have applied to five different places: OHSU-Monmouth, University of Portland, Portland Community College, The University of Washington, and Boise State University. I wanted to cover myself and hopefully ensure that I would get in somewhere. I have a really good GPA and experience as an EMT-Basic so I am hoping that that will help my chances.

Just waiting it out until they send out notifications.....I just want to hear back!!! :banghead:

Good luck to everyone who applied!

Yeah, my booty will be happy to be at CCC tomorrow.

Nice larisa. I'm interviewing tommorow for ccc as well, and I just went out and blew way too much coin on a cheap suit... Guess I'll be eating out of dumpsters till the next paycheck but I'll look good doing it. Good Luck on your interview tommorow, what time is it at?

8:45b am

I did not buy a suite. I wanted to be comfortable, so I bought shoes and a top.

well I'll see ya @ 8:45 :) that's when my interview is too~

Any thoughts, PDX ?

Larisa, Pdx ...

How'd the interview go?! Hope it went well... fingers crossed!

I think I did OK, I don't know how PDX feels.

I made same mistake I always do at job interviews, I was shaking from nervousness.

Next year I am getting Zanax prescription before interviews start.

IF you have to do it next year...

Ok, great to get the update... We're all hoping you get to go on to nursing school next year...

Good luck!

I wrote a proctored essay for OHSU, and the 30 minutes we got at CCC started my panic attack. I guess there must be a reason for such a small amount of time, maybe to see if you can chart under pressure:yeah:?

You did a great job larrisa~ I didn't notice you being nervous at all.

Thank you, PDX. You were sitting too far away to notice, and I think that people who interviewed us did notice it.

I can offer you some feedback too. I was watching the ladies the whole time, and you seem to evoke positive reaction from them. I think they were entertained, or I should say, engaged by you.

Thanks, I hope I made a good impression. I was kinda worried about how they reacted to my answers. I didn't feel I did that great in the interview.
