Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

Published

From reading everyone that got into Lone Star nursing programs I hypothesized one very important point. Correct me if I'm wrong but if you get anything less than A's in English and A&P there is NO chance of admission.

The only instance I calculated a chance is a "B" in English, an "A" in A&P and a perfect 100% on the HESI. Other than that, A's in your classes with a minimum 88% on the exam is my observed formula for entrance.

I see why so many (myself included) get so worked up about the HESI. Anyone else taking the test next week at a Lone Star?

If anyone has taken A&P at a Lone Star over a summer session, how did you find attaining an A over the six-week period? Also, if anyone wants to part with a lab book...(?)

I emailed her today and haven’t often a reply but I already ordered the $400 one and it’s ready for pick up so hopefully I can use a cheaper one and just return that one and save me some money!

You should because that’s a waste of money.

I think you might need to click on the link from a computer if you’re using your phone.

Is anyone planning on trying to work at least part time while doing the program, or would anyone recommend working part time??

I plan on working full time, but I got a job that allows me to study. I know it will be hard but I really don’t have a choice. Just have to be very strict with myself. My wife did it and got top of her class so I would look like a punk if I told her I couldn’t work, but bottom of the class is cool with me(nurse is a nurse).

So my teacher replied and said I need the one that will give ma access to prepu. Is that still the $400 one?

The one paypayy sent will give you access and it cost $160.

I just did pharms over the summer which is 12 weeks technically isn’t 9 weeks because 3 weeks are for exams. So my guess is that it was a short semester hence why we didn’t.

I would email her again and say that you see two options and you’re not sure which one applies because both says it has PrepU and you don’t want to buy the wrong option so you would like more clarity.

It’s your money so be polite but stern and clear in your communication because her response to you was very vague compared to others here.
