I passed mine in November 2022 on the first attempt. I heavily utilized the Solheim program. I attended an in person session and bought the virtual review as well as the practice exams. I also purchased the practice exams from BCEN and use the Pocket...

Be yourself, be genuine, know your personal statement well. Don’t babble because you’re nervous and it’s okay to ask for time to think of an answer before just blurting out. It’s very comfortable and they are looking to see not only if you fit for th...

I'm a recent grad. I was in the Fall 2017 cohort. I had an interview in March and did not get an acceptance letter until May. There is no consistent method from semester to semester of when notifications go out. People who interview before you may he...

I am grateful for the interview process. I was a nontraditional second career student who was older (late-30s) than most of my peers. My GPA from my undergraduate 20 years ago are not reflective of the student I am now. I was able to go in and talk a...

This is normal! By the time you get to your final semester you still won't know anywhere close to everything but you will feel like you are competent enough to be safe and know how to ask the right questions when you start as a graduate nurse.

I do not have previous healthcare experience but I do have previous research experience. I know people who work there as acquaintances but no one I listed as a reference or who put in a word for me. I didn't even tell anyone other than family I had a...

I was accepted for the Research Nurse Residency for Spring 2019. I start in March.

Actually the original poster is correct. I haven't found any new info on it though but here are two articles lining out some of the details. The first article says Fall 2019. https://www.bizjournals.com/houston/news/2017/06/26/san-jacinto-college-de...

I'm a second career BSN student and I would LOVE to just have a drug book and leave my cell phone out of the patient room. However, my program REQUIRES the phone to be on us at all times because our apps are on the phone and there is a push to show p...

I am looking to apply for the Spring 2019 position. Was there a specific place the listings were when y'all applied? Thank you!

You'll need to bring a letter from your doctor and a copy of the prescription with you so it can be noted to the testing center.

Wow this post took a hateful turn quick. At no point did she say she pointed it out to a seasoned nurse she was wrong, nor did she say she thought she should tell her. She said it was observed that she wasn't following the new protocol. What I took f...

I am volunteering at a free clinic while in school. One of our goals is to help those who cannot afford medications. In America, if you do not have insurance medications can without exaggerating cost more than your car payment or mortgage. I know of ...

If you do not believe health care should be for all you will not fair well here in the United States. Emergency rooms are full of people who cannot pay (and yes some of them actually cannot scrape up the money to pay anything). For example, they may ...

Another point to this, when you arrest someone you must Mirandize them and read them their rights. He did not do this. He manhandled, assaulted and told her she was going to jail repeatedly. Even the supervisor just detained her in the car. THEY NEVE...

A few thoughts that have taken all day for me to wrap my brain around. First, it comes out that Payne is an EMT who works for Gold Cross Ambulance. He can be heard saying, "he'd "bring them all the transients and bring good patients elsewhere”. In ...

Hey guys! Crazy crazy few days! Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine nursing school would start this way for us. We had our white coat ceremony cancelled and will be rescheduled. Online lectures were supposed to start since obviously there are th...

Nothing I say is official from th university. If you have an interview they carved out time for you.

Just a heads up, this week is orientation for those of us who start in the fall next week. Everyone in the admissions office is involved and it is for the BSN, RN to BSN, MSN, FNP, and DNP programs. It is crazy, crazy busy this week and most likely ...

I have no healthcare experience at all. My volunteer experiences were with veterans experiencing PTSD and helping them to reintegrate to social situations and I also do volunteer work with at risk teens to encourage job skills and prevent dropping ou...

I wore a black suit- tailored black slacks (I have ankle tattoos and I didn't want to worry about having to put make up on them or bandaids), off-white top, and fitted jacket with black heels. I made sure my heels were not super high and I was comfor...

I'm not exactly sure how they decided when to send it out but I know it was about a month and a half after I got my acceptance. It came in an email from Dora Turner.
