   I too was at the meeting last week. I thought they would at least have punch and cookies, LOL. and find it hard to believe that it will take 100 hours to earn a C. If we can read fast, take smart notes, and know how to manage time, we should be ab...

   Ostlouis -- it absolutely sounds like it was Micro, then. Future applicants reading this thread-- be forwarned! Do you now have to take the HESI in order to apply for August? If so, I took it for FAU and it was really easy. You should nail it. And ...

   I was thinking the same thing. Why me and not you? I wonder if they go off of "tie breaker" flow chart thingy on the nursing web page. Maybe it was the Micro grade or something. Do you think they consider race/age/gender in any way to round thin...

   DawnSue replied to mrs.ant0125's topic in Florida

   I got in as an alternate with twelve points. I wonder if all 90 people ahead of me will keep their spots.....if not I may be fine. I can't believe 12 points wasn't enough to get it. Last semester, people with EIGHT points were alternates. Did the...

   IMO -- he should NEVER lie, especially about something to do with a future career. Not good advice. You gotta stay on the high road, no matter how much you want something.

   Just turned my application in in person at Central Campus. The lady behind the little desk was VERY nice. Wonderful, in fact. She took the time to input my application while I waited. She tallied my points while I was there, too, and made sure my ...

    Thank you Sunray, for all of the information you took the time to post -- in various threads, not just this one. Very helpful.

    I only see Test Success: Test-Taking Techniques for Beginning Nursing Students, by Nugent. Is this the book you mean? Thanks.

12. Can someone set me strait on what to expect for FAU nursing please?

    DawnSue replied to mrmedical's topic in Florida

    Here is one: http://www.broward.edu/hospitalsponsorships/ I have heard ( chit-chat and grapevine) that they are only offering 4 or 5 TOTAL scholarships among all of the hospitals in Broward. Which I guess would be 1 each or so. I heard there used to...

    Michigan. Say no more. It's not you. Don't beat yourself up. I sometimes struggle with some mixed emotions about staying home with my kids -- when my class wrote resumes for a project, I had a LOOOOOOONG gap of time where I didn't have much to put...

    I am the tall woman who was making cracks about just having had my boobs done. (I didn't of course....it was just my fake reason to be in a hospital bed.)
