2018 Lone Star ADN Hopefuls - Spring

Published

Hey there!

I wanted to start this page for anyone who is applying for the Spring 2018 Lone Star ADN or LVN program! I've seen previous posts, from previous years, and everyone was really helpful and encouraging to one another.

I am taking A&P 1 over the summer (starts 7/13) and then I will be submitting my application!! Im so nervous. I already took the HESI and got a score on 90.8%, which gives me and 3.6 on the point scale. I have an A in Eng 1301 and hope to get an A in A&P this summer.

In the fall I am taking A&P2 along with Micro (ugh). So if anyone else is in the same boat, let me know!!!

Anyway, I look forward to hearing from everyone 2MzmrmldDUluFszY4BeNRUhFw8YnK8nLzkBNSYABAA==

Thank you Sikaba! Do you know of a specific quizlet? I have the quizlet app also...

Just practice a lot I got 100 in AP and 90 in math but be carful the English part is very long and hard it was my weakest part especially vocabulary got 86.8 total

Do the Hep B shots give you a lifetime of immunity? I just found my shot records, and it looks like I got the 3 shot series in 1994. I Googled it and got mixed answers. Hoping I only need the titer and not the shots again!

Thank you guys. as far as the hep b titer goes, you will need to get the titer done to see you immunity level. Should be a number.

I'm very nervous about the AP section, and the roman numerals and conversions for math. Everything else should be ok.

Make sure you get a quantitative Hep B titer done as stated above. It'll have an actual numerical value according to your immunity level. I had to do the titers twice, because they didn't do the quantitative!

I remember a few questions were about the brain, a few on the ear as well. I don't recall any question with roman numerals, but a LOT of ratios. Also, yes, there are at least a handful of conversion questions, even about distance. Good luck! :)

I totally understand, you and I have the same exact grades. I plan on retaking eng and ap 1 as well.

Hi Heather,

I will be applying to Lone Star ADN and LVN program in the spring as well if I am not selected off the alternate list for the fall program. I still have hope that they will call me off of the alternate list. In case they do not, I am retaking A&P II and Engl 1301 with hopes to obtain an A in both! My Hesi score is 83.20 so that left me with 3.3 points and I have a C in Engl 1301, B in A&P I, and C in A&P II; hence the reason why I'm retaking those courses this summer. Good luck to during this process and please wish me good luck as well! Do you plan on applying anywhere else in the Spring?

I totally understand, we have the exact same grades. I sure hate it but it looks like we need to retake eng and ap. Stay strong, hope by the grace of God we get in this go round!

Heeeeyyy same here! Three children, quit my job and devoting all my time to become a nurse.

Yes I'm currently retaking both classes as we speak. So far, I'll be ending AP II with a B and ENGL 1301 with an A; with those grades and my current Hesi score, my score will only go from 6.3 to 6.8; still not good enough to guarantee acceptance! Unfortunately, I'll have to take the Hesi again if I want my score to reach 7.0 or higher.

My life in a nutshell!
