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 guess for me it’s a same driving distance as to woodlands ! How often do you go for the cliniclas ? Once a week ?

How do they pick people who can do that !? It drastically reduce the load ! I better sit for two extra hours that come extra day for the class lol

I have no clue....some students end up with lecture and lab together on one day but others have to come back an extra day just for lab....but no lab 3rd and 4th sems.

I'm at NH. I like it! It's been a good experience...They do seem more lenient but still stick to the rules bigtime. The instructors are good too. I'm happy I came here.
