Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

Nursing Students School Programs

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...(?)

Janita is amazing! I had her for pharm and got an A. I have quizlets for each section if you want to study them.

Jodi_riley1985 labelled by chapter.

Does Janita Schaer reviews cover mostly everything on the exams or should I study that plus more? for example CH 6 talks about street drugs but it is not on the review.

Her reviews cover her exams. I didn't come across a single question that wasn't covered BUT some of them are sneaky. Make sure you know side effects and what foods to avoid.

Page 1 Records match = yes with blue stamp with ePass aufans and date

Page 2 the name and ssn number matches the social security admin record

Page 3 Written in red successful/match

page 4 ePass Aufans and date

the remainder is rights and regulations

I take the info on pages 1-3 to mean my social security checked out and I am who I say I am

hope that helps
