Fall 2018 Lone Star Hopefuls

Published

Hey everyone, just wanted to start a Fall 2018 page for Lone Star ADN/LVN future students!

Hey, I plan on applying in July as well. Can you tell me what you studied for the hesi?

They change the HESI every time and from what I heard, they have a couple hundred questions and it's all randomized. The anatomy section was only 30 ?s but that is kind of hard to study for since its such a broad subject and since there are only 30 questions it doesn't give you any room to miss one. I used the HESI A2 study guide by Trivium Test Prep. I liked it because it summarized each subject of a&p with the essential info, so I just pretty much read everything. Vocab was mostly health-related words like adhere, supplement etc. Grammar was easy for me but my friend failed that section so I don't know...I would say just study affect/effect and remember neither goes with nor and either goes with or in a sentence. Reading is super easy don't even sweat it! Math is all fractions and proportions with a couple unit conversions thrown in. Just know meters to kilometers and pints to cups.

Hey guys! I applied to Lone Star's 2018 Nursing ADN Program and have been put on the Alternate List. I had a 6.9 when applying but had a score change due to a professor giving me a B in A&P 1 when I should have received an A. So as of Friday, my score has changed to a 7.504. My first choice is Montgomery, then Tomball, then NH, and then Cy-Fair. Does anyone have an idea as to if I will be accepted into any school? The Dean of Health and Science and Dr. Gray said I have moved up on the list due to this change. I feel like now I should be getting a call any day now but I still am nervous.

WOW! I am so sorry that your professor did that! Did you catch it right away and have to fight for it? I can't even imagine! Especially since I finished A&P I about 1 week before the deadline!

I believe the alternate process works by giving you the next available slot at any campus you were willing to attend. So it could be any of them. I think you have an excellent opportunity though! Just a matter of which campus. If it winds up being Montgomery I'll look forward to having you in class!

Has anyone taken Microbiology with Ms Tiffany Martin at LSC-CF? Any thoughts on her course? It looks like she offers a choice of textbooks, is there a "best" choice or are they even truly "required?"

I tried contacting him multiple times and never heard back so I went to the dean! She re-graded my grades and confirmed my A, talked to the nursing directors, and now I'm moved up! Just praying I get ití ½í¸¬

Hey guys, for those who haven't done their CPR (BLS Provider) yet, you can have it done for just $30. Just go to this website E-PIC Training Center, Inc. and register. When you are ready to pay, scroll all the way to the bottom and you will see the Student Rate for $25. When you pay, there will be an additional $5.00. Her name is Tiffany Massie and she is totally cool. I got mine done today and it was approved by Castle Branch. Let me know if you have any questions. Her number is on the website also.
