Just thought I would get a forum started as we await the decision. Everyone feel free to post your overall GPA, math and Science GPA, and TEAS scores. Also why you want to be a nurse and what specialty you would like to work in?
Overall GPA 3.38
M&S GPA 3.4
TEAS 80.7
I originally wanted to be an OB/GYN, but then I got pregnant and decided I would just become an account (math is my favorite subject). After my stay in the hospital (labor/delivery & postpartum) I decided I can still be in the hospital setting if I become a nurse. I want to be an OB/GYN nurse.:heartbeat I eventually want to become a certified nurse midwife.
I think they are interviewing all this week and the committee will meet next week and decide.
Hopefully we will hear something the 1st week in April. I have talked to past students and they heard like within a week or so. I am sure they will have to get the ball rolling since they have to get all our updated shots, CPR certifications, health insurance stuff etc. This waiting is worse then the wait to get a call or letter.
Yes we have to get health insurance and to get it through the college it's like over $1000 a year...you will find all that out during the interview. I hate shots...ugh! Which will we have to get...I just got the one for whooping cough in October..after I gave birth to my daughter. I figured we would have to do the CPR certification. When will we be doing all of this?
Hmmmm, I may need to get a quickie marriage so that I can get on my boyfriend's insurance if the schools costs that much, lol. Shots aren't a problem to me, I'm pretty sure I'm up to date on everything but now that I'm thinking about I think I read something about having to get a hepatitis vaccination, I don't have that yet. Do they have classes for CPR training at the school? I wouldn't even know where to get that. Guess it's time to start researching.
