Loma Linda Nursing Fall 2018

Published

Hello everyone, I am applying to LLU BSN program to start in Fall of 2018. I just wanted to start a forum and see how everyone is doing, and help each other with updates.

I actually got a call from Dora to have my interview. Does every qualifying applicant get an interview or only the potential candidates to be admitted get an interview?

Thank you

Hello, for those of you who took the TEAS and critical thinking at LLU how was it? Thanks

They were both pretty difficult. Definitely do not underestimate the difficulty and make sure that you do prepare for the TEAS even if you think you already know the topics. Get yourself a good teas preparation book. As for the critical thinking, there is no way to prepare for this test and it was very difficult for me. I don't really know how to describe it, but it just makes you think a lot. Some of the questions didn't even really make sense to me. You also have a very limited time on it, so I guessed on many questions towards the end because I was running out of time. Good luck!

Thank you ! I was going to take it even though I don't feel ready. Now I think I'll study a bit more first.

Yes, I would suggest studying a lot for TEAS because it was quite difficult. I'm very good with English and spelling/grammar stuff and that was actually the section I did the worst on. It was just very challenging. All the questions were just hard I think.

that's great! Congrats to you. I have the ATI manual, do you recommend any other prep book?

The one that I used was ati secrets or something like that. I bought it at Barnes n noble. I'm sure that any of them will do, just look at the reviews on Amazon or something to see which one is good.

Hi all ! I am in the process of applications and have my interview tomorrow for spring 19. If any could share what to expect for the interview please. Also, for those that are currently in the program now, how is it ?

Some of the questions are scenario questions. I was also asked to give some examples on past leadership experience and to define the role of a nurse. It wasn't too stressful. The hardest part was waiting for their decision after. Good luck! :)
