Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

[TwinDaddy]

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...(?)

Y’all please make sure you are getting your certifications through American Heart Association. I can’t stress this enough I had a friend who got into the program and did everything but because she got her BLS from someone else they kicked her out because it was passed the deadline.

I’m here wondering if I’m the only one who feels like the checklist is about the take over their lives.

I’ve uploaded a few easy items and waiting on my complete but I have to get all my titers.

For those interested, Express Family Clinic costs are as follows:

MMR $90, Varicella $40, Hep C Screen $30, TB skin test $25. Total $185.

I’m referring to titers for MMR and Varicella.

I should hopefully have everything but the background check done next week. Only thing I have left is the CPR, Titers and Physical exam which are all scheduled next week.

This sucks we can't do anything for CF yet cuz they haven't given us any info on castle branch or anything for social security or background check.
