Brookhaven Spring 2021

Published

Hey guys, I know this may be too early but am just curious to know where everyone is at. Am pregnant at the moment so that is the reason I didn't take dosage cal. and applied this Spring...but I believe everything works out for good.

Perquisites + support classes = Done

HESI exam = 87.6 Will likely retake it for a higher grade

Medicals = Done

Dosage calculations = Not taken

Did they say they'll announce on Tuesday? To us they just said in the next one to two weeks.

I actually was looking at the admissions schedule but now I see October 20th is when they notify you if you got an interview I guess they’re ahead of schedule. Dang it! That’s even worse LOL

Yeah! They're way ahead, so we'll see what they say. What I'm wondering is how they will calculate interview points. Is four minutes enough time to interview anybody? Maybe I'm biased because of my bad start, but I'm not sure.

From what I was told by career development, your writing sample is 5 points and then each question in the interview is 5 points so 15 total. I think they maybe just don’t have time to give everyone more time than that but I wish we would have had a real admissions essay before hand! Or maybe ask everyone the same questions it was a tad bit unfair. I felt I got very easy questions but others in my group got the harder ones

I’m glad you agree that the questions weren’t all of the same difficulty! It looks like we’ll just have to wait and see at this point.

@AshAnd23 were we in the same group? 8:30 yesterday?

I felt like my questions were more simple and some others were easy at all

I'm hoping they take that into account. I had never done an interview like that before.

Yes we were in the same group! And yes I agree the questions weren’t all the same. But career development also told me it is rare for people to bomb the interview, the main part was answering all parts of the question. Which is difficult when some people got asked 3 questions in 1!

@AshAnd23 I feel like I did terribly but I feel like that all the time 

I’m sure we all did just fine! 
Thankfully, I prepared for the 2 questions I was asked so I feel great!

I think all of the interviews are done now. Wasn’t the last group today?

I actually practiced interview questions beforehand, but the first question I got wasn’t one of them.

I think so.
