Broward College May 2016 RN program

Published

Just wanted to start a thread for Broward's May '16 RN program! I'm finishing up my application process this week.

My hesi was a 87% overall, with 90's in Math, Reading, and Vocabulary, an 84% in grammar, and a 80% in AP.

My prerequisite GPA is a 4.0

Hello Future RN's,

I have 2 sets of the Perry & Potter Fundamentals books for sell $50 each

Both come with the textbook & study guide (both study guides are brand new so you can fill out the questions yourself)

These will be you bibles in Process 1 & 2. I will provide the reading list with each set.

Also from the book list I have the Med-Surg textbook (generally $130 used) and study guide ($30 used) for sale as a combo for $125. Mosby's Diagnostic & Lab Test Reference book (generally $40 used) for $30.

PM me if interested

Hey guys, submitting my application to the fall term tomorrow.

However, I'm registering to take micro this summer and I haven't had any good professors recommended to me yet.

I'm taking it at Central. Anyone recommend any professors?? Thanks so much.

Hello everyone! I start process 2 On wed and after Reading all this posts it reminded me that just a few months ago I was in your shoes. My suggestion Is to get The perry and potter fundamentals book, and jarvis. Those are the main ones i used. I would also get The nursing fundamentals by MARYANN HOGAN. That one Is a detail outline of most of what you Will see in process 1 and 2 Watch nursing physical assesments, on YouTube this Will give you an idea Of How It would be. Each lab instructor has Their own way of doing things so those videos are just for reference. Practice vitals specially the 2 step blood pressure. When I started the program I had a small group I would meet with but I soon realized that it was not for me, just a waste of time. read the chapters read the Mary Ann hogan book listen to the lectures and practice nclex questions on the topic you are on. As long as you practice and practice your skills in the lab with a partner and read you will do fine. I go to north campus, it is very challenging but up until now I love it! All the teachers for process 1 and 2 are great! I just pray that will continue. And btw you do no need to have a 3.0 or above to be a great nurse you just have to study and be eager to learn. A lab instructor once told me she was a C student in nursing school and look at where she is now, she is one of the best instructors We have.

If you don't mind me asking, what is jarvis? Is that a professor?

Sorry, Jarvis physical examination pocket companion book. I believe the summer term is 6 weeks and it will be a lot of information. It's best to start from now.
