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! :)

Anyone know anything about the Nightingale study tutorial?

I only know that when I tried to access the prof. Nightengale page it didn't work on my mac computer

I looked at the website a little while ago and don't get it. I can't find a tutorial anywhere, just something on test taking strategies and five bullet points (stress reduction, question analysis, quick tips, review, practice question). When I click on anything but practice questions I start downloading files that I cannot open (have Mac too). Has anyone had any luck so far?

Does anyone know if they send alternates a declination letter if they don't get in? Or are we supposed to just wait until 5:00pm on 8/25 and if we don't hear anything that's our declination?

Annasmum - when you downloaded your ebooks, were you able to save the file to your hard drive? Just wondering if we will need the dvd/cd drive every time. I'm so nervous to open the package! Haha!

Annasmum and Sonny, I have a PC and accessed the Nightengale website with no problem. Wonder if you need something specific to make it compatible with Mac?

It gives you the option to download onto two mobile devices and two computers. I haven't accessed the other two as one of them only lasts for two years. I have started to read the fundamentals of nursing. The books are quite big.

I tried it on a laptop and still just bullet points on the left with ram files to download that I can download but not open. I used the log in details they gave us during the orientation in May. Is that all everyone gets?

I've misplaced my Nightingale instructions, so I emailed Mrs. Mason to see if she had a copy of it so I can do it before the 22nd. I have both a Mac and PC, so I'm going to try both when she gets back to me and I'll let you guys know the outcome!

Any alternates hear anything?

Waiting stinks :(

I don't think alternatives are given any notice, but just have to wait until the end of the first day of class :(
