  1. Eastwick college or Jersey college? Bridge program

    @Maria30 I would also recommend looking at your A & B practice. If you look over the focus review, you can see the topics of questions that you missed. I would study from there honestly and when you doing A, make sure to look at the rationals and...
  2. Eastwick college or Jersey college? Bridge program

    Eastwick will only accept your pre-recs if done by other places if they are done *before* you start the program and sometimes they don't want to take them. Generally their pre-rec classes are not hard to pass but it can be a lot of classes with the s...
  3. Eastwick college or Jersey college? Bridge program

    I only used ATI. I know a lot of my cohort used archer and they passed but IMHO the questions they use are super super complicated and the NCLEX is not as in depth as their questions. It feels more structered like ATI. Also nurse mike has an NCLEX pr...
  4. Eastwick college or Jersey college? Bridge program

    Man that sucks. I am sorry. I am surprised that they got you guys in there. I wonder if that is because our cohort complained about the lack of in person clinicals. I get the working for free part. You guys aren't learning any RN skills at...
  5. Eastwick college or Jersey college? Bridge program

    This is a known problem with this college. It is hit or miss with instructors. We had one that legit made us all feel like garbage about ourselves all of the time. She was very snide. Her exams were very also very difficult. Lots of people complained...
  6. Eastwick college or Jersey college? Bridge program

    Do they call him Noli? Does he always ask the class "What.. else??" Noli left for awhile and then came back but I swore he came back to Ramsey Campus. If he is who I am thinking of, his tests are always really hard and it is very much like you said. ...
  7. Eastwick college or Jersey college? Bridge program

    Who do you have for Patho and what campus are you on? Sometimes the ATI questions are not from those you can do on adaptive quizzes (the quick search function on those also stinks as I am sure you are aware) or even the focused quzzies that the...
  8. Reading on the TEAS is all about knowing how they want to answer their questions and the same goes for language. Once you understand that, your score will be much higher. I promise. 🙂 Science can be all over the place from what I remember but g...
  9. Eastwick college or Jersey college? Bridge program

    For eastwick, there are no full time or part time options. How many classes you need to take for the bridge generally depends on what pre-recs you have that depend on what the class load is like. For term 1 and 2, you may only have one core nurs...
  10. Trying to make a final decision?

    Hey there! Not sure if you made your decision yet. There is a thread from Nov on Eastwick that has some relevent information. Holy Name from what I know from my cohorts and some former co-workers, has a really good but tough program. The ...

    @SRpn21 and @hunbun How did the rest of your term go??
  12. Eastwick college or Jersey college? Bridge program

    @SRpn21 What you have to focus on is greatly dependant on your instructor and what they want. Some professors are all about their power points. Some will give you a study guide as a guide line. Others will just refer to syllabus and some will throw ...
  13. Eastwick college or Jersey college? Bridge program

    @hunbun Concepts 1 was a lot of fundamentals of nursing. Health care law, informatics, some nutrition, infection prevention, etc. By far, concepts 1 was a breeze compared to concepts 2 which is mostly med surge based. Depending on what instru...
  14. Eastwick college or Jersey college? Bridge program

    Sadly, there were lying to you. LOL. The only clinicals that were done this passed year were in acute care only, if they went at all. The RNs were the only ones going when I was doing my LPN because of the pandemic. Clinical for the RN does not ...
  15. Eastwick college or Jersey college? Bridge program

    I am a current bridge student at Eastwick. I will tell you that if you haven't decided already, I would look into the Holy Name LPN-RN bridge program instead. As of this writing, there are no clinicals in hospitals for RN students at Eastwic...
  16. I know that mileage will vary from student to student, but which courses did you find the most challenging in your first year? Is there anything you would have done differently or focused on to make it easier on yourself? I am very close to going i...
  17. What courses were hardest in your first year of nursing?

    I am aware that you don't have a choice in what classes you have. I also know that some courses tend to be more challenging than others. In our second term (first year), we have pharmacology and med surge. I am not sure between the two which is typ...
  18. Hey all. ? I was curious for those of you on the LPN/LVN route, what did your first semester of classes look like? How long were your terms? There are two LPN programs I am looking at in the next month and each seem vastly different. One states th...
  19. Eastwick College- Hackensack- LPN?

    Hello all! :D I did a couple searches through the boards and did not see this college mentioned anywhere. Has anyone had experience here and their LPN program? My husband is possibly looking to move us to NJ sometime in the Summer, so I am t...
