Lone Star Fall 2012 ADN Applicants

Published

I applied to Lone Star - ADN program Spring 2012. I was accepted as an alternate. I am hoping to get a call from the nursing department saying there is a spot for me. If not I will be reapplying for the next application period for entrance to the program in the Fall 2012. Good luck everyone!!!!

Ba ha ha! We are so much alike.... I had a brief break in July and went crazy! Let's just say everything that hadn't been used in the last 6 month was removed from my house and donated . Now that I start basic class on Monday, everything is coming to a head, but I'm sure I'll survive. So what were your thoughts on the class and any pointers you want to provide??

At Tomball we had rnsg 1105, I think your class is rnsg 1172. I dont know what the difference is but pay attention to the skills. Relax and be confident, and use common sense.

Yes! That's why we're supposed to have it read before class starts. With the long class days until we start following our real schedule, plus quizzes and homework, they flat out told us we will not have time to read all of the chapters in time. I'm finishing statistics next week and then I guess I have one whole week to get it done!

And yeah...first test is going to be a doozy!

I finished reading them a couple of weeks back, so how I'll remember anything will be a miracle!

Well I'm pretty sure they'll be teaching it to us in class so you should be refreshed :)

Did they say anything to y'all about when they'll be letting us know our exact schedule? Miss Jean told me she'd be emailing everyone in July. Obviously that didn't happen. I'm trying to figure out when we'll be doing our LTC clinicals.

Nevermind! I just checked my email and there was the schedule! She said to block out 9-5 m-f so I'd be pleasantly surprised when I got the schedule and I am pleasantly surprised! The only downside is that parking is going to be brutal at 10 am so I'll probably be there early anyway.

I'm excited as well, but its starting to turn into fear and anxiety. I pray that I'm really ready for this adventure. I read the chapters, but I don't think I learned what I'm suppose to, but we shall see soon enough.
