the books they will let you know during orientation.. and the they should be mailing you information about where to buy the uniform, that should be bought b4 the semester begins...the store is antoinettes..they'll send u all the info about that. Med supplies- the only things we needed for the 1st sem was a stethescope & a blood pressure cuff.. and the bp cuff isn't mandatory, it's just something if you wanted to get on your own if u wanted to. didn't know you were in the evening program, it's much different from the day program..and ur clinical site is going to be at rumc. also, i hear the evening program professors are great! so thats good :) only thing is classes are til late (4-11pm) i wish you the very best of luck!! anything else let me know :)

Hii MelisSI!! i'd be more than happy to answer any questions you have :) are you applying to the s.i. location & did u get in already? ok so depending on if you chose the evening program or day program.. i was in the day program and classes run monday through friday.. i didn't have a&p because i already took it before i came to st.pauls.. so i had wednesdays off. The first half of the semester, on either monday or tuesday u will have lab after that class. also classes on thurs & friday. The first semester isn't really medsurg, it's fundamentals and you will also have 3 other classes with it. In my opinion, fundamentals was def the most challenging but it's def doable, u just gotta study hard and practice questions and ask as many questions as you can! the teachers you will have are really good.. and of course everyone has their own opinions but it's really what you make of it.. overall they are good. The 2nd half of the semester you will have clinical monday & tuesdays at clove lakes nursing home and classes after clincal and thurs & friday. It gets really tiring but it goes by quick..finals time is the craziest.. but you could def do it! stay on top of things and you will be fine :) anything else please feel free to ask :)

hey everyone i'm currently a student at st.pauls in the staten island location..just finished my 1st semester. If anyone has any questions i'd love to help with anything i can.. :)

hey i'm accepted too! but i chose the daytime program..good luck to you! do u have orientation tomorrow also? =)

hey has anyone heard from st.pauls yet??

hello everyone, i'm planning to apply to lich..but i wanted some info from students that are currently in the program, graduated or going into the program. does anyone know how competitive it is? what do they look at most for accepting students?

does anyone know if it's more competitive to get into liu now than before? As long as you have a 2.75 will you still get in?

thank you so much for the reply! Do you really think if i bump my overall GPA and sciences GPa to a 2.75 I can get in? Is it more competitive to get in now than before? Also, what are the science pre-reqs? I looked at their website but I'm not sure if I have all of it. So far I have completed, A&P I &II, Micro, Statistics, Psych, I took a chem course that was 4 credits but i'm not sure if it's ok for the program. What kinds of chem do they want? I took a bio class my first year as an undergrad too. Do you think I need anything else? thank you again so much!! =)

hello everyone, I'm very stressed out and needed some help. I have a bachelors degree with a GPA of 2.6. I know this GPA is not strong, but does anyone know what schools I have a chance with in New york, New Jersey and even Philadelphia? I'm thinking to take some classes this spring semester to bring my GPA up. Does anyone know of schools that are not so competitive to get into in these areas?

wow i would have definitely applied to Oklahoma city university, but it's way too far for me. does anyone know any other programs out there like that that are less competitive to get into? preferably near new york?

thank you so much! all this info is really helpful. i really appreciate it =) were you able to use a calculator?

heyyy can any of you who have been accepted to the fast track program tell me what GPAs u had? i just want to know what kind of GPA they take..

thanks Rynique! so how was the test? by the way i'm taking this test for long island college hospital. i don't know much about this test..but from what you told me about the math, that seems hard esp since math is not my cup of tea. do u know what a good score for this test is? so this test has math, reading, what kind of sciences? and anything else? does the ATI study guide really help? sorry for all the questions! just need some help =)

is the math basic? are there word problems?

heyyy does anyone know if the hesi entrance exam has basic math? or are there word problems?
