mindofmem BSN, RN

I'm still a new RN (1 year) and started in adult ER as a new grad (which was a complete nightmare, but that is another story!) In April of this year, I moved to a pediatric urgent care and it's the happiest I've ever been (not just as a nurse, but at...

I agree with everyone else here...the long drive would be a deal-breaker for me. I work at a hospital 5 miles from my house and it's amazing how much working close to home can boost your quality of life. I previously worked at a hospital 30+ miles fr...

Hi, all! I am a newly graduated RN (May 2021) starting orientation as a resident a Level II ED next week. Does anyone have any feedback about the BCEN EDvantage certificate? It's a rather new program designed to help acclimate new or aspiring emergen...

Yes, I was accepted to the fall 2019 cohort as well. I agree with the other comments, put MAXIMUM effort into your science pre-reqs (A&P I and II, micro). My instructor said to plan on studying 3 hours per day, 7 days a week for those classes if ...

I was thinking...they might wait to update Banner, etc. until after February 15 when all the acceptance letters have been received.

From what I've heard, there will be an orientation sometime in March (at least, that's how it's been done in previous years). So I'm sure we'll get more info then!

My transcripts and Banner haven't changed yet.

4.0 GPA, 92 Kaplan.

Yes, great idea!

I already scanned and sent mine! ?

I got in!!!!!!

I hope you're right. I keep thinking they'll be like, oh, you didn't dot the I in your name on your application so you're rejected. Hahahahahaha

It really is! I don't know how much more suspense I can take! I know my friends and family are sick of me obsessing over it. ?

Well, at least that gives us an idea! Thanks for sharing. I hope each and every one of us gets in!!!!

*Sigh.* I guess today's not going to be the day after all.

Nothing. ?

So hoping for an answer this week! The suspense is killing me. I have a 4.0 GPA and a 92 Kaplan score so I'm trying to stay optimistic!

I put my application in today!!! Feeling very hopeful. I'm going to spend spring and summer semester doing my last 4 pre-reqs for the Georgia State RN-BSN bridge. ?

I'm 42 and a mother of 3 and am wrapping up my ADN prerequisites this semester! I will by no means be the oldest student in the 2019 cohort, either. My previous degree was accounting (back in 1998) and I elected to do the ADN (I plan to begin my RN-B...

Me too! I started my pre-reqs in January 2018 and am now taking my last one (A&P II) before putting in my application in January! It looks like this thread is a bit old, but I'm still so glad to have found it. How are you coming in your journey?
