Nursing Students School Programs

Published

I want to start a running forum for the applicants of the 2018/2019 program as has been done in the past.

How many other people are applying this year?

How many are taking their HESI in the next few months?

I'm reading the Taylor book, taking notes. This has helped me to relax a bit about getting the acceptance letter. I'm actually hoping the days will slow down some, so I can get more reading in. Lol

@chynapiotrowski we have the same exact score and gpa lol. fingers crossed! someone got in last year with a 79 hesi and 4.0 so we shall see! it feels like its taking forever. they also round your hesi score ann chirko (i think thats her last name) said. so with rounding mine is 83. good luck!!

So an 86 on the hesi would be a 90?

No, I don't think so. I believe the highest that would be rounded to would be 87%. That's only if you scored above 86.5%

no. you would round to the whole number. so an 82.6 would be rounded to 83%.

Hi everyone I'm a pre-nursing student applying in February 2019. I have to take my pre reqs and need to take pathogenic microbiology or anatomy and physiology in the summer. Which would you recommend and how to get an A for such a condensed course? Has anyone ever taken these two together? Considering taking both in fall along with fundamentals of nursing instead of breaking them up and risking a bad GPA from a 4 week class. PS.) Good luck to everyone!!

I took A and P in the summer, it was a 6 week class. It was hard, but it wasn't too bad. The professor I had pretty much based all exams and quizzes on her power points. I ended up with a B+, but I know if circumstances had been different I could have had an A. (I had a newborn baby at home with colick, and a 3 year old, and was working midnight shifts, so the amount of studying needed did not always happen), I personally would not take a and p and pathogenic microbiology at the same time if avoidable, unless you know you are able to dedicate the time needed to study for both. Good luck :)

Letsdoit – What is the title of the Taylor book? I am very interested in reading anything I can to be more prepared (and of course kill some time in a way other than browsing these forums all day haha!)

anna4202 – That is so exciting! Good luck to you – I hope we both make it in this semester! :)

Has anyone received letters with gpa has hesi scores yet? This wait is killing me!! Its sooo close

I have not received a letter stating my gpa and hesi score yet. I emailed the college a couple weeks ago, and the reply I got was that the Hesi score Gpa letters would go out mid to late april and offer letters would go out last week in april or 1st week of May. The wait is killer, but it shouldn't be long now.

The title of the Taylor book I have been reading and taking notes from is Fundamentals of Nursing, I was lucky enough to purchase most of the books for the program second hand from a student, I have found some very reasonable on Thriftbook.com they are used books, but very well taken care of and shipping is free. I am basically just taking my time reading through chapter by chapter just to familiarize myself with the information.

i haven't received anything yet either... can't wait any longer honestly :(
