Fall 2019 Lonestar Hopefuls

Published

Hey everybody. I'm not sure if it's too early but I'm making this page for anybody who is applying to the nursing program at Lonestar College for the Fall of 2019. Looks like Montgomery, Cyfair, and North Harris have applications from Jan 7-April 12. Good luck to everyone!

Okay y'all I might be overthinking or stressed LOL.. but I'm currently sitting at a 7.376 & I'm debating on if I should retake the HESI or not before the deadline. I'm registered to take it on Thursday & the only reason why I'm taking it is to ensure me a spot for fall admissions. However, I'm looking at last fall's forum and people as low as 6.99 ended up getting accepted. Should I retake the HESI or save myself time & sanity and just stay with my score? LOL thanks in advance!

7.376? Nah, I personally would not retake it.

Has anyone taken an online/hybrid Microbiology course? If so, how was it? My only option is to take it this summer in order to have it done before the program (if accepted), along with pharmacology. I don’t want to be super overwhelmed but I feel like I’d be overwhelmed either way if I waited to take it during the program.

I'm currently taking it right now at Kingwood on Saturday's. So far it is a pretty simple passing grade, not very hard to make a B, and with a little effort to get an A. I"m taking Hal Turner at Kingwood.

Has anyone applied/ turned in their application for Hcc Coleman?

Updated list with everyone in order! I also creeped on Fall 2018's forum & saw a person with a scored of 7.15 (the highest alternate score) end up getting accepted into Tomball. Also, the lowest score I saw that was accepted as an alternate at 6.97. I'm hoping all of our scores are good enough to get in! Good luck to all of you!

Hey Guys! I'm looking to apply for Fall semester as well and just took my HESI test yesterday and my overall score is 7.536!! Hoping that's good enough to get in either NH or M, not sure which one as my first choice. Good Luckkkk!

Ok , all done. Finalized my score with 7.52, with 820 CT, so I boosted it up from last year and now going for NH, T, M, K. Yaaay! My husband actually just got me into thinking of not retaking my Hesi. I am not a risk taker, can’t deal with Hesi anymore. And how really high is the risk of taking it the couple days before the deadline? Including stress, anxiety, pressure...

So let’s pray We all get in. ?????‍♀️ Amen!

Ps. I couldn’t figure out how to add myself to the score list... ??‍♀️

Hello everyone,

I have just applied to the Lonestar Cyfair, Tomball, NH, and Kingwood for the fall 2019 admission period. My choices are in the order that they're listed above. My score is 7.50. Not sure what my chances are for admission with this score, but i would like to be carried along with the discussion. Please, does anyone know if it is too late to register for Pharmacology for the Spring 2019? I believe we do not need to be in the program to take that, please correct me if I am wrong. Good luck everyone.

Hey, just keep on applying. I have around the same score, and I will apply to all campuses, LVN program too. For Pharm, do it as soon as you can. I took my class last semester and got an A. Professor Mariveles is amazing. If you can, take her. ?☺️? Good luck to you too!

Thanks, Nancy. I am really trying for an A. I get it I'm gonna be very VERY happy. If anyone is reading this I also want to know if there is a study schedule for the HESI if I have a month and have only the 4th edition of the Elsevier book from which to study. Like most schools (I guess), the sections we're tested on are Math, Reading, Grammar, A&P, Vocabulary and Critical Thinking. I really want in at CyFair but I also hear it's the most difficult to get into.

I posted a review of what I thought about the Hesi. Look at the beginning of this thread. I studied about 6 weeks before as well so I hope that helps!

I’m currently taking Micro and Pharmacology both in person so I don’t have input about the hybrid part but I can tell you that Pharmacology has SOOOO much info. I’m doing the full semester and have to dedicate atleast 2-3 hours a day for that course and Micro I feel is a lot less info but its still a pretty hard course so just keep that in mind if you do decide to take them both in the summer!

You have a good score so it’s very probable you will get accepted to either your first or second choice. For Pharmacology you don’t need approval at North Harris and I think Montgomery locations. When I searched Pharm classes online, those were the only 2 locations that popped up with classes. And somebody told me Cyfair required prior approval if you have not been accepted yet. The semester started already though and I’m not sure they offer a late start class but search anyway! Worst case scenario you can take it in the summer. Best of luck to you.
