Is that physical still good? For NV, our physical exam has to be after May 1. I had a physical in October, which means I will have to pay out of pocket for another one since insurance only covers 1/year (not calendar year...) :(

the same with the CPR it is usually good for 2 years, so they tell you to wait till after may to get it

xoamber13-how many people are on the waitlist? You said you were 114, but did it say 114 out of 150 (or whatever)...If you take that number and add 125 (the number accepted) that will tell you how many eligible applicants there were.

I'm glad I'm not the only ambitious one out there! I am planning to drop off my papers tomorrow afternoon... physical is scheduled for Apr. 26 and I am actually due up for renewal of my CPR cert in late May so I am scheduling that for early May! I act all stressed about the short timeframe but who am I kidding; I'll have it all done way before I need to!

So i just dropped off my signed forms; and like expected, my crazy self was first. They had not even started a folder yet in Admissions or in the Nursing office... lol. Hope they get used to it now because it's how I am!

So after getting into gateway, and having A- in A&P I find myself with a horrible grade on A&P ii . I am about to have my second exam, and I am so afraid. :( :(

Toonis: I wouldn't worry to much about it you have already been excepted into the program. It may bring your GPA down but you can always bring it back up with doing well in your next courses. Best of luck and stay positive!! ; )
