   Congratulations! Thank you for doing this. I'm currently working in the OR as a new grad, but I'm strongly considering getting some ICU experience to pursue CRNA after hours of observations and...

3. Pasadena City College RN Program Spring 2020

   Aprils replied to baconavocado's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   I was in your position before so I totally know what you mean. I wish someone had broken it down in an objective manner for me when I was making the decision between schools, but I made it through the...

4. Pasadena City College RN Program Spring 2020

   Aprils replied to baconavocado's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   You might not meet the minimum post requirement to use the PM message. I believe it was 15 posts before. I enjoyed my time in the nursing program, but that was largely due to my peers. My experience...

   Congratulations to everyone who was accepted! I graduated from this program not too long ago, and would be happy to answer any

6. Was RN school easy for you?

   Aprils replied to EV1518's topic in General Students

   It was not as difficult as I was told by some of my peers who attended the same program as me. An acquaintance of mine swore that I would never see another A again and I should be happy to get a B in...

7. Pasadena City College (PCC) Fall 2018

   Aprils replied to Steph5's topic in School, College Programs

   You would think PCC is clear-cut about their selection methods, but unfortunately they're not. I would suggest you to apply to other programs. The RN program at PCC is not as great as it used to be....

   I know there were at least 5 alternates who were accepted within the last couple weeks before school

9. Pasadena City College (PCC) Fall 2018

   Aprils replied to Steph5's topic in School, College Programs

   Like I said...PCC seems to almost choose their students at random out of a qualifying pool. Higher points doesn't mean that you will get chosen over someone with lower points. They take into...

10. Pasadena City College (PCC) Fall 2018

    Aprils replied to Steph5's topic in School, College Programs

    Some people think that the students are selected at random sometimes. It's not based purely on points. You have to fit certain criteria for them to select you. What are the criteria? I'm not too sure,...

11. Pasadena City College (PCC) Fall 2018

    Aprils replied to Steph5's topic in School, College Programs

    In the end, a RN is a RN no matter where you get your license. I'm sure you'll adapt to the program as you progress. One good thing about PCC is that they have great clinical placements (in my...

    Aprils replied to Steph5's topic in School, College Programs

    I'm currently in the program and I can confirm that Urbanhound is speaking the truth. My only advice is to ask the administration as many questions as possible when finding out more about the program....

    Aprils replied to inkabruce's topic in School, College Programs

    I have heard that CSUSM is a great school, but they've recently replaced the dean of nursing and are making changes to the program. What kind of changes? I'm not really sure. I have a friend who chose...

    There were lots of last minute application drop-offs this morning from what I saw. Best of luck to all of

15. Cal State San Marcos ABSN Fall 2018

    Aprils replied to inkabruce's topic in School, College Programs

    It really depends on your comfort level of taking out more loans. I had a friend turn down CSUSM because he couldn't afford to take out more loans. When you factor the tuition + living costs it gets...
