Hi, nurse-hopefuls! I've been following along on all of the threads from the previous semesters and thought it might be nice to start fresh for the new round. Applications are due in about a month and a half and I was wondering how people were feeling?
My baccalaureate GPA is a 2.9, but my pre-requisite GPA is a 3.73. I also know I have a really strong personal statement. I'm hoping that will make up for my undergrad gpa.
Is anyone else getting nervous? The last thing I'm waiting on are my letter of recommendations so I'm hoping those come in soon...
Orientation..I would say your not missing anything critical. Its more about the policy and procedures of the school. Myself and my classmates had more questions after orientation. To be honest with you, I got the majority of my information from previous students and allnurses.
SSIP..Helps you brush up on A&P and medication calculation dosages. Its a great opportunity to meet classmates, go over expectations for studying, register for class. I feel like I got more out of SSIP.

Hope this helps!
It does help, thanks! I meant orientation, not SSIP.

Hey, kmun911, what happens at orientation? I'm going to be out of town that day, so I'm going to miss it. Am I missing anything really important?
