Hi everyone!! I probably am jumping the gun by posting this already but I'm too excited and just can't believe I'm finishing up my last semester of pre reqs for the program. I take my HESI on Feb 16th. Anyway I just wanted to introduce myself and see if anyone has also taken the hesi and what would be the best study guide to get. Here's to hoping for a great fall!!! :D

Hi everyone!! This is my 1st time applying, I know my points will be low because I only received 6 points for my HESI that I took back in Jan, but how long before you can see your points? :)

Good luck to everyone!!

Search nursing syllabus on the pbsc website it will list all the courses required in each semester throughout the program they are highlighted blue when you click on it the class syllabus will come up. It is listed there. I bought the package that includes the book and skills video through amazon and saved some $$$

This is for Monablue,

I'm not going to lie to you, this was the hardest I have ever worked in classes and got B's. It's not impossible with a family, I wouldn't know because I'm 23, single, no kids, living at home, but friends of mine in the program have little ones. However, be prepared to study. I didn't see any non-nursing school friends for the entire semester except maybe twice. I studied at work, at home, at school, listened to lectures while driving. Ate, slept, and breathed nursing school. Clinicals is terrifying, lecture is overwhelming, but it is do-able. I finished the semester, did okay on finals. My advice to you is read before class, read after class, record the lectures! But, it is doable, so also don't freak out and don't let it totally overwhelm you before you start. You can do this.

I think Im relax, but I check every hour or less to get news so...Im not relax at all lol Also, Im trying to think a back plan...but my options are not good enough. Im positive and trying to call for good energies Anyone have a "plan B"?
