  1. Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in School, College Programs

    I am going to be supremely pissed if I don't get in for Spring. And with Cy-Fair being continuous I was looking forward to graduating in May 2021. Sure getting in for Fall 2020 wouldn't be bad but...

  2. Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in School, College Programs

    I hear ya. It seems easier to get in English as opposed to A&P. But when you need something who's to say which is harder? I seriously need that A, there is no Plan B. I did good getting the HESI...

  3. Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in School, College Programs

    I wish.. Still stuck on Fall. I'm focused on A&P 1. Application deadline is 08/01. The listed end date for the class is 07/25. That is cutting it close. The instructor has to be diligent in...

  4. Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in School, College Programs

    Welcome and good luck to you as well. I don't think you'll have an issue getting in. In either Cy-Fair or Kingwood you are

  5. HESI A2 in 1 hour

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Very accurate and true. My A&P 1 class starts Monday. Doesn't account for the class average, however. I digress. I am just happy and

  6. HESI A2 in 1 hour

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Reading 96% Grammar 96% Vocabulary 92% Math 88% A&P 76% (just ouch) Critical Thinking 850 Cumulative Score 89.60% From what the "class average" says on the Elsevier site, out of the 8 that took it...

  7. Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in School, College Programs

    I have a question about my HESI scores. When I go into Elsevier to look at each category I see my score and a "class average". I'm trying to figure out what "class" means. Best guess is among the 8-9...

  8. Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in School, College Programs

    I think you will. If you don't with a 7.6 then I wouldn't with a 7.58 either. From scanning this site it seems that during a highly competitive cycle our scores could be good enough. I would prefer...

  9. Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in School, College Programs

    I don't know how to inquire about a particular instructor at LSC CF. All I can say (I think) is the person teaches BIOL 2401 in Summer Sessions. Their initials are (MODERATOR EDIT OF INITIALS - PLEASE...

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in School, College Programs

    For Lone Star, they take the last one you did and use it for

  11. Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in School, College Programs

    I took English in California where I'm from. I couldn't get an open Pharmacology class this Summer so in the Fall for that. I need to recalculate as the score would give me a 7.58 (not that +.02 is...

  12. Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in School, College Programs

    Finished the exam. I didn't rush myself. I actually got hung up on the A&P as there were ZERO questions about the heart flow (just weird). I got at least 15 questions on musculoskeletal system. 5...

  13. Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in School, College Programs

    When it comes to nursing school admissions it is a seller's market. They couldn't just take everyone with B's and high HESI A2 scores. Say you had the aforementioned B's and a 95% on the exam. Your...

  14. Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in School, College Programs

    I think it speaks to the quality of education. If it weren't the case, why so many applicants? Maybe somewhere in the past it was believed that CC's like Lone Star were a lesser education. But since...

  15. Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in School, College Programs

    I felt the same way just studying. There was a sense of "there HAS to be more to this" looking at the Elsevier book. I turned to a few quizlets but mostly the Pocket

  16. Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in School, College Programs

    I'll be at a Lone Star campus for the exam. I didn't know that you are given a score after each section. Wouldn't it be a huge weight off to start with the section you have the most worry about? Now...

  17. Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in School, College Programs

    Riri22 do you have any strategy on sections to take first? I plan it to be Reading, A&P, Math, Grammar & Vocabulary. Critical Thinking is last. Since only 12 are admitted to take the exam per...

  18. Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in School, College Programs

    I may (if I get in) be the "older" student in class. I live so close to Cy-Fair that it is my first choice. However, I for sure will NOT turn away Kingwood! I seriously doubt a patient is ever going...

  19. Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in School, College Programs

    Nij13, I hope you get into a spot. Where are you an alternate? I'm applying for Spring 2020 Cy-Fair. I hear that they're more stringent regardless of it being Fall or Spring. Is a 3:1 ratio...

  20. Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in School, College Programs

    So there is around a few hundred (200-400+) applicants for what could be just 90-100

  21. Lone Star College LVN hopefuls Fall 2019

    TwinDaddy replied to AHopefulRNSomeday's topic in School, College Programs

    It seems like a very tough competition for the ADN spots, particularly in the Spring. I'd have to see my HESI scores before I change my

  22. Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in School, College Programs

    Competition for Spring admission seems tougher because it's just Cy-Fair and Kingwood. Anyone know the applicant/seat ratio from last Spring? It is definitely higher than Fall (has to be). There are 2...

  23. Lone Star College LVN hopefuls Fall 2019

    TwinDaddy replied to AHopefulRNSomeday's topic in School, College Programs

    I debate on LVN or ADN program. In either case it would be at Cy-Fair. I don't know about the context of the programs and until I read post here was going to apply at both for Jan. Maybe my age (44)...

  24. Lone Star Spring 2020 ADN

    TwinDaddy replied to TwinDaddy's topic in School, College Programs

    And I made a mistake. It should've read "Lone Star Spring 2020". Fixed it?

  25. HESI A2 pocket prep

    TwinDaddy posted a topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    There's the free version, Classic with 800+ questions for $15 and The Premium with over 1,600 questions for $25. Which one, if any, is the one used to study with? I have the Elsevier book and it just...
