Hello - this is my very first time posting a new topic, hopefully I'm doing this correctly.
Just wanted to see if there are any ladies/gentlemen out there applying into the nursing program for the Spring 2013 semester. We apply the first two weeks of August - and then does anyone know how long until we take the TEAS test? I keep getting told different things, it's confusing.
Speaking of.....Hopefully I'm accepted and can then maybe make some friends. I'm so sick and tired of the people who tell you one thing that's untrue, all to mess with your head and make you second guess anything you've ever known about this nursing program. I know this is a competitive field and all, but sheesh already, the lies and manipulation have been unreal!
Also, I have to say, I admire anyone who has (especially while working FT w/a family) gone to school to take these pre-reqs while not even knowing if you will get in. The stress I have experienced, the stress and torture I have put my family through while leaving 3-4 nights a week after work, to go to school, while not even knowing if I'll be accepted, has been beyond brutal. I wish we could write an essay on all that we've sacrificed in hopes that would make some of the admissions counselors feel guilty enough to just put an approved stamp on our applications :)
I just found out that I have to have a least 15 quality posts before the PM feature is available to me on this website. At least it is not be being crazy and not knowing how to do something.
Just curious, what specialty does everyone want to pursue after they graduate? I think it will be really neat to be a flight nurse, which I guess a person will have to have five years of ER/ICU experience. I just do not really know what a good direction will be, or what specialty will provide the best chance of employment? Thoughts everyone.
Hey everybody this is my first time posting here. I FINALLY got into the day program and can't wait to start! It only took me 3 times applying :/ but it FINALLY happened! So I'm curious and can't wait for the 13th, but does anyone know what clinical sites JJC has?
PM's sent to: Murse, Tortiz, Irisheyes, Katie, zamrn, strongfaith and Gstar. Hopefully I didn't forget anyone? Everyone else, sorry, you only posted once.
Thank you for your PM. I will try to be there. Registration day is tomorrow. Time sure flew by - anxious and nervous, happy as well! Let's try and relax -- tomorrow will answer some of our questions. And then we have a month before we roll into action.
Sorry I could not meet up after registration today! I guess we will be virtual until we figure out who's who
It was a very informative session! I got into clinical group with Michaelene Nash. I ordered my scrubs before registration. A jacket, two tops and two pants for $104.
It ended up just being me and Irish. Which was fine, we had a good time chatting. :)
I can't sleep. I woke up at 2:30 and had to get up and read all the paperwork again. Just rolling everything over in my mind. LOL. Wow. I feel like a deer in headlights. Tee hee.
Sorry I just got the message today. I have been busy with bio 240. In case anyone is with me or not I am in days with the white group/clinical. Which it is with Kania.
Is any one considering getting the digital copies of the books or just the regular ones?
Sorry Purple, all nurses still will not let me PM so I cannot respond to it yet. I think I still need several more posts.
