  1. Portage Learning in Metro Atlanta

    jlmcgrot replied to willfreedom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I believe they do. SL is not associated with any college. Portage is, and your transcript will say "Geneva College". Check with them though to be

  2. Do CRNA schools accept degrees earned through competency based programs?

    jlmcgrot replied to imblest11's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    From what you're describing, it sounds like this structure might be the opposite of what you need. Much better to take one or two courses at a time and be done in a year, than to pay for 6 months and...

  3. Ga Highlands Nursing Program 2021 Fall

    jlmcgrot replied to Nechk's topic in School, College Programs

    Here are some "old" samples of the sheet. I think these are before the TEAS was updated and I'm sure there have been other changes. It may give you an idea though. Sample

  4. Bjorn Hall Stethoscopes?

    jlmcgrot replied to AngusBeef's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    It looks nice, but... Is grabbing neck hairs really a problem? Seems to be an issue she made up to differentiate the stethoscope. I've had matte finish stethoscopes slide off my neck, so a...

  5. Ga Highlands Nursing Program 2021 Fall

    jlmcgrot replied to Nechk's topic in School, College Programs

    Yeah, it was 4/1. They had to make some exceptions for the TEAS and CNA license because of covid closures, but that shouldn't be an issue this year. They typically mail a packet also, but we...

  6. Ga Highlands Nursing Program 2021 Fall

    jlmcgrot replied to Nechk's topic in School, College Programs

    Last year we got them mid-June, but it was a different year with Covid and all. Not sure if it will be the same this year. Good

  7. PORTAGE LEARNING

    jlmcgrot replied to Kcometh's topic in General Students

    What kind of support were you expecting that you aren't getting? It's a completely online class at your own pace that you have a year to do. If you need a lot of 1:1 time with a professor, then a...

  8. Chattahoochee Technical College ADN program 2020

    jlmcgrot replied to Surgtech97's topic in School, College Programs

    I would think that if you've made it this far into the ASN admissions process, you'd have a pretty good chance of getting into the LPN program. Who Knows? Maybe more RN candidates than normal are...

  9. Chattahoochee Technical College ADN program 2020

    jlmcgrot replied to Surgtech97's topic in School, College Programs

    good luck with that...that stuff is basically benadryl and would make me groggy during a test where I had to critically think...I'd

  10. Chattahoochee Technical College ADN program 2020

    jlmcgrot replied to Surgtech97's topic in School, College Programs

    What did the update you received say? I got one that said the deadline was 2:00 pm, because I had not registered, however, there were 86 recipients, all of which I assumed were the ones that had not...

  11. Chattahoochee Technical College ADN program 2020

    jlmcgrot replied to Surgtech97's topic in School, College Programs

    Has anyone gotten any feedback with how the classes are going to be structured with COVID, or how they were structured in the Spring when it hit? Some schools are moving to a primarily zoom/online...

  12. Chattahoochee Technical College ADN program 2020

    jlmcgrot replied to Surgtech97's topic in School, College Programs

    I hope you get in, but I think CTC is even more competitive, especially this year. They've said only 40, with closer to 400 applications. The closer you get to Atlanta, the more competitive it will...

  13. Chattahoochee Technical College ADN program 2020

    jlmcgrot replied to Surgtech97's topic in School, College Programs

    I got the email invite for the CTE, but it's doubtful I'll take it since I've been accepted elsewhere. That should clear up a spot (I had an 85 on the TEAS and A's in all the science prereqs as well...

  14. Chattahoochee Technical College ADN program 2020

    jlmcgrot replied to Surgtech97's topic in School, College Programs

    Has anyone gotten the CTE invite yet? They are cutting it close. Maybe CTC does not have all the requirements of some other schools as far as vaccines, physicals, TB test, certifications, etc......

  15. PORTAGE LEARNING

    jlmcgrot replied to Kcometh's topic in General Students

    Then make a list of schools you want to attend and check their equivalency transfer system. If it's not there, have a conversation with someone in the registrar's office. It's on you, because as...

  16. Chattahoochee Technical College ADN program 2020

    jlmcgrot replied to Surgtech97's topic in School, College Programs

    I don't think there will be that much overlap. I applied, felt good about my chances, and had no plan of applying to the LPN program. When I first started looking at going back for nursing I looked...

  17. Chattahoochee Technical College ADN program 2020

    jlmcgrot replied to Surgtech97's topic in School, College Programs

    I don't think the critical thinking exam is anything to worry about. I imagine there are fewer applicants for LPN also, so who

  18. Chattahoochee Technical College ADN program 2020

    jlmcgrot replied to Surgtech97's topic in School, College Programs

    I think it's typically easier because most schools admit the LPN students at a later point in the program. Chatt Tech really didn't handle this Covid situation well with regards to nursing. Students...

  19. Vorfreude stethoscope experiences?

    jlmcgrot replied to BradVermeer's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    interesting. I was curious about the RA Bock, which is how I heard about Vorfreude (which now looks like they're shut down). This link doesn't work, but you can still search and find it. Might be a...

  21. Portage learning Chemistry course

    jlmcgrot replied to crissy07's topic in General Students

    I only took A&P 1 through portage and it took me 6 months or so, but I wasn't racing to meet a strict deadline and had other in person classes going on. I actually think the content at Portage is...

  22. Georgia Highlands TRAD Fall 2020

    jlmcgrot replied to peachstatehopeful's topic in School, College Programs

    I'm in! Sorry to those that did not make it. I know they said they had a record number of applicants this year, so competition may have been tougher than normal. It's also possible that spots open...

  23. Wake Tech Fall 2020

    jlmcgrot replied to Caroline9's topic in School, College Programs

    MDFs are pretty good, but it sounds like you might have the cheapest one if it was $12. Finger crackle means it's pretty sensitive though, so maybe it is the holding

  25. Georgia Highlands TRAD Fall 2020

    jlmcgrot replied to peachstatehopeful's topic in School, College Programs

    sorry, it's Dalton (dalton state college). I thought we spoke on a previous thread about it. I could be wrong. **I was wrong. It was another poster. My
