IRSC Fall 2014 Hopefuls!

Published

Hey everyone! I know this is super early to be talking about the fall semester but I just got my denial letter for the Spring 2014 semester so I wanted to make this group for anyone that's applying or didn't make it in like me. I got a 109 score on my NLN exam which makes my total points for program 130. I took A&P I & Micro which accounts for my points. I would like to retake the NLN in 6 months & hopefully I can do much better. I'm currently enrolled in A&P II & plan on just studying my butt off for the nln in the process. Classes I have left before I'm done with all my "pre-requisites" are A&P II (which I'm currently in), Chemistry, and Nutrition. (which I plan on taking those in spring/summer). Maybe we can get a study group together eventually if anyone is interested! Best of luck to everyone! :)

Crap, hopefully it doesn't matter

doubt ut matters. it gets sent to IRSC in 24-48 hours

It doesn't matter. There is a reference number on the paperwork. The lab tech knows what to do. I think they see these tests all the time. Had to wait for over an hour from my test. It was really busy. So one down lots of other things to go. Having all my immunizations redone next week just in case. I am not taking any chances.

Good to know thanks ! Hopefully they take me pretty quick tomorrow. Luckily I've had all my immunizations but my TDAP is over 7 yrs old so just gotta redo that and the TB skin test

Ugh! I feel like there was no point in making an appointment. I waited an hour to get my drug test done; not to mention I chugged 4 bottles of water prior so I was dying waiting lol but one step is over! I checked for employment as well but the lab tech checked other and wrote school on my actual form. JUST WONDERING what happens if you fail? Does IRSC call you? Not that I'm doubting!!! I'm just wondering lol

I'm wondering if we have to turn in the chain of custody form

I just called and they said they dint need it it get sent straight to them

Acbeisler I'm sure they'd call if someone failed. Otherwise they'd be spending unneeded money on the other steps. But who knows lol

I made an appt for my drug test and still had to wait an hour before getting called back…so ridiculous

Same here. I waited about 45 mins but I got there early. One step down hooray !

I just wanted to let everyone know to check your insurance coverage before you make your doctor's appointment. I found out that the tb test and the physical are not covered because they are not "medically necessary." Even though I get a physical every year, the one for school is considered different for some reason. I just wanted to give you guys a heads up so you wouldn't be surprised. My doctor charges $35 for the physical and $26 for the tb test - so, not too bad, but wish it was covered...

Shots are expensive! I got the MMR, tetorifice and hepatitis vaccine done today. It was like 250 :(
