   Nurse1010 replied to sctrex's topic in School Programs

   Hi, sorry, I also can't start private conversations because I don't have enough posts. It says you need to post 15 times first. Also, we're using Slack in our program instead of facebook - it's a zillion times better for sharing info, etc. https://s...

   Nurse1010 replied to sctrex's topic in School Programs

   The readings in the program are different than I expected in that we have maybe 8 or 9 books (each is 1500+ pages long) and we read chunks from them here and there. So I wouldn’t recommend sitting down and reading one of the actual textbooks. Mo...

   I forgot to mention something that I think is important in describing what the program is like. In terms of assignments, we have tests and we have adaptive quizzing with NCLEX-style questions. There are a few other minimal assignments (such as discus...

   Nurse1010 replied to sctrex's topic in School Programs

   I haven’t started clinicals yet and I just started the program in January. So far, my clinical instructor (via Zoom and a couple days in the lab on campus) has been helpful and instructive. The clinical sessions are not overly involved and much of th...

   Nurse1010 replied to sctrex's topic in School Programs

   Hey, I’m in this program currently and just want to offer a little input since I didn’t see any reviews of the program before enrolling. This program is workable if you’re fine with very minimal teaching (the Power point lectures are very sparse), ca...

8. UMass Boston - ABSN Spring 2021

   Nurse1010 replied to Future.Derm.NP's topic in School Programs

   For anyone who didn't get into the program, please remember that they're expanding the program soon. In fall (possibly Summer?) of 2021, they'll be admitting 24 more students (72 total compared to 48 currently). So if you were encouraged to apply aga...
