Sorry, this is a bit late to post. I was accepted to Cochran and I am now in my 1st semester. I applied in April, took my TEAS test in May, received my letter in June. The interview process was normal, questions were regarding what you could bring to the profession, general knowledge topics about the field, etc.

Hope this helps.

I don't remember what my score was, but I did really well on the english portion, I just had a hard time with the math. they have a minimum score, not sure what that is either. you can buy the study guide online from ATI. If you are interested in attending this spring, they are taking applications now.

MrsD723, thanks for your response, I did my interview on wednesday, the questions wasn't what I expected, however I answered to the best of my ability....I also did the Teas in may, but lack general biology, which I completed in the summer....I'll let you know the outcome.

If you are applying for the spring, you should do it now, make sure you have all your prereqs out of the way....the exam to me was a bit difficult, I find the NET much easier....time is of the essence, especially with math, you get 45 questions to complete in 45 minutes, not enough time, all the other areas you will finish ahead of time, the comprehension part of it is pretty straight forward.

I don't find it that difficult. I think you have to have great time management skills to succeed. I read every chance I get. But I work for the VP of Nursing at the hospital I am at so I am around it all day so it may come easier for me. I think anything is possible. If this is your dream, attack it and know that failure is not an option.

Failure is not an option for me....I won't be working when I start nursing school....I got laid off from work therefore, I will be attacking my studies at a hundred percent and more....how are the clinicals?...where do you do your clinicals?....when I did my interview, the interviewer told me that I need a car to get to the sites.

Yes, you will definitely need a car. Right now we are doing a rotation at Malotz nursing home but after that you never know where you are going.

Your best bet is to call admissions. You never know. Maybe a spot will open up.
