Grand Canyon RN-BSN

Published

Is there any updated information? I have been in heavy contact with them and am looking at taking their RN-BSN program. I work with a GCU grad and she has nothing but positive things to say, but I want more opinions. ?

Any pro's and cons? Thankfully the only class I'm missing is stats and that is offered in the actual BSN program. I'm a bit nervous as my algebra skills are way old. If anyone took this class, do you have any advice?

I am starting Leadership in a week and have someone not listed either way. What kinds of assignments can I look forward to in Leadership?

Anyone remember week 4 Excel assignment in Stats? Had a question if you do.

It states "Is there sufficient evidence to support the claim that women in the different age categories have different mean blood pressure levels? Give reasons for your decision."

In the boxes below they want the Statistical and Experimental conclusion. Is that all they are looking for because this would represent the results both statistically and experimentally? Seems like they might want more but can't figure out what. The assignment is just too easy, produce an ANOVA table and answer the Statistical and Experimental conclusions....... That would adequately answer the above question...

Different assignment than you, that is the one class that they change the assignments with each class.

Okay so I had to have a heart attack last night just before I uploaded my assignment, almost late. I'm trying to do Writecheck, fixes, going to go check classroom while waiting for results...find out I'm out of my Capstone class (freaking). Then find out I've been marked down on my last assignment for my conclusion (being in the body of the paper - no heading???). Did not change current paper before upload because was told by tutor it was done right (have been marked down in past for having "Conclusion" as a heading)! I am NEVER going to figure out APA if every teacher has a different interpretation, I am so upset, disgusted, and confused. I have no idea anymore!!! Rant mostly over, at least here. The good thing today, well two things. Got back into MY capstone class (don't mess with me people), and it is 42 days and counting.

All papers have Intros (don't type the word Introduction though) and Conclusions (yes heading, centered, bolded). That tutor needs a rubberband snap.

I think I *win* on the Cap-Drama:

Started last Monday. Paid (in full, cash) a week before start of class. Got the Prof I wanted. Class opens early, I read & download everything on Thursday morning. Mon & Tues I'm just cruising around class, reading ppl's bios, typing up my DQs on my Word doc, etc. Tues evening I go to post my DQ. No LoudCloud. No Student Portal. No library. No nothing. Call IT. IT dude tells me there's nothing wrong with my system, and no, LC is not "down". Proceeds to tell me not only have I been removed from my Cap class and 2 other new students have already taken my place (since 2 hours prior, when I WAS clicking around class), but that I have been withdrawn from the University. Yes folks, you read that right. Per IT dude, I am no longer a student, and that's why I have no access to anything. I start screaming and crying. IT dude freaks out. IT dude hangs up (yet still manages to send me an email survey asking how my experience was). I call my SA (after business hours). Scream and cry into his VM. I send him an email, typed mostly in CAPS (`cause I want him to know I'm still screaming and crying). Shortly after sending said email, Prism barfs from the stress :barf01:

Do I win?

OMG Prism!!! I would have been dying too! Any news on what bloody happened??

I would be beside myself.

Ok... but makes me wonder, as this morning when I got up I had an acceptance letter from GCU in my mailbox - is there a gremlin in the system?

I don't know. I don't want to know. I woke up to an email reply from SA that just said he'd get it fixed and I'd be re-enrolled and back in class within 6 hours. It was actually faster than that, and then I felt kinda bad that I went all psycho-COPS-episode on his voicemail, but jeSUS talk about giving someone a stroke when they're 5 weeks out from graduation?! Now that I think about it (bits and pieces are coming back to me as I had blocked out that whole day), I think I remember screaming into his voicemail "THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING!! I ALREADY BOUGHT MY PINNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!" :rotfl:

Ok, may not be the most appropriate .....but you had me ROFL with your last statement.

:laugh:

Ensure you keep checking as I have had the profs change on me after I have requested and got the prof I wanted..probably happens more with a popular professor.
