   Hi. I dropped from the summer. Sorry. Would have loved to though. If you need any help, I put considerable time into studying and may be able to help. Let me know.

3. Anyone need a CPR Course/Certification for Nursing or other?

   Firehawk734 replied to Firehawk734's topic in Michigan

   It just made me really think about how lucky I am to have what I have. I did not want to start over and prove myself again by starting at the bottom. It's tough to do that when you have put all this time into one thing. I would basically be throwi...

   Firehawk734 replied to Firehawk734's topic in Michigan

   I just could not part with my job. It made me realize how cozy and lucky I have it, to be honest. No, it's not what I want to do really. But I've been in my career now for 10 years and with everything I've worked for, it's hard to leave that for a...

5. Anyone need a CPR Course/Certification for Nursing or other?

   Firehawk734 posted a topic in Michigan

   I was signed up for the OU Accelerated BSN program but decided not to pursue it. I had already enrolled in an American Red Cross CPR course for the professional rescuer, which is a requirement prior to starting the program. Well, since I have decide...

   It's a business, they'll fill the slots. I'd love to think it's purely based on requirements, the person, whether the interviewers believe someone will make it, etc. But, if there's ever a situation where they have 70 spots filled, they're going to...

   Thanks. The real basic stuff I am ok on. I start losing confidence on story problems because sometimes I'm not sure what units they are looking for. If i can determine with confidence the units they are looking for, I can then start getting close t...

   I am pretty sure there were 100 that interviewed for the 50 spots in my cohort at the time. I think when they decided to move the whole year of classes to Riverview instead of just the first semester, they must have made the executive decision to in...

   I am sure it is only like that right now because they have the extra seats floating around. But I would bet you in a few more semesters it will be back to the 1-1.5 year wait. So you are falling into this program at just the right time.

    Firehawk734 replied to nrsstudent2010's topic in Michigan

    Yes. I am in the May cohort and there were well over 50 people in the orientation. Instructors talked about there being 75 and the recruiter lady said she moved 25 up to accommodate. I talked to a student that was moved all the way up from the Wi...

    I can also confirm they increased to 75 seats, starting in May. THey stated it in the orientation this past Tuesday. They moved many students up, and I was one of them. I was slotted for Fall.

    Firehawk734 posted a topic in Michigan

    If someone has taken the program before, can somebody post the type of questions that are on the med math test? I am trying to get a huge jump on studying for this. If it is nothing more than conversions and dosages, that is easy. If it gets into...

    They notified me by email. I believe I also received an acceptance letter by mail after that if I'm not mistaken.
