It only took me three days from the time I took the test to receive my letter. I believe the committe was meeting the day I took my test. Also, I went in early and spoke with Mrs. * so she interviewed me at that time.

Hi Francine,

Have you heard anything yet? Let me know...

Hi Nancy,

Just wondering if you've taken your teas test? Keep me posted...

[francine470, BSN]

Yes... my interview is this thursday. How was your interview..did she ask alot of questions. Also, do you know how the schedule is going to be like.

Hi Francine,

I'm happy to hear that you received an interview..Don't worry about it, just be yourself. It was basic stuff; why do you want to be a nurse, will you be working, do you have a support system? questions like that..not very hard. Just be honest... Who are you meeting with? Mrs. L is wonderful!! About the summer schedule, well, for me it will be crazy because I'm also taking Chemistry at night, but this is what Mrs. L told me. There are two sessions, either a 3 week or 4 week. Classes start on July 5th so the 5th-7th is 9-4 (class), wk 2 is 2 days 7-3 (clinical), 2 days 9-4, wk 3 is 3 days 7-3 1 day 9-4, wk 4 is 3 days 7-3 last day final. If you do the 3wk program you follow the first three week schedule and than every friday is an additional 7-3 clinical. I'm really not sure how this is going to start on the 5th because Mrs. L said I would receive a package with additional information of what needs to be done, like order uniforms, physical exam info, background check, etc...and I still have not received anything, so well see maybe they will delay it a week or so...I'll keep my fingers crossed for you, but you'll do fine.. let me know how you make out. Hopefully, I will be meeting you very shortly...Good Luck!

Hey guys! Well, I got the call and letter, I take the TEAS this Friday. I am so nervous!

[nancy_s]

Francine,

Congratulations! Don't be nervous about the interview, you will do great!

[onedayanurse]

Hi Nancy,

Don't be nervous. I was flipping out about it, no need to. Just review basic english, the math was a lot of word problems. I didn't do as well as I wanted, however, I did better than I thought. After you finish go in and see Mrs. *, that's what I did and she interviewed me at that time. Just say you want to show her your grades. She is a wonderful person..Good Luck!!! stay calm! Let me know how you did..

[onedayanurse]

Nancy, that should be do!! ha ha
