  2. Sharp New Grad Residency October/November 2023

    I think maybe they'd do virtual - I know other hospitals do because there are people that apply out of
  3. Sharp New Grad Residency October/November 2023

    I guess something opened on May 7, and people in an older chat mentioned it. Again, I graduated that day, and I had been waiting for it so when I realized I'd missed it I was pretty bummed. I guess...
  4. Sharp New Grad Residency October/November 2023

    Yeah, I've been watching Kaiser too. I asked when they would release their next one and they said July but it's still hard to know because I've seen people say they only leave it up for a day for...
  5. Sharp New Grad Residency October/November 2023

    Haha yeah my family likes to move - I'm originally from WA. You're definitely going to pass - from everything I've seen, those who consistently get very high/high chances of passing end up actually...
  6. Sharp New Grad Residency October/November 2023

    This area IS really, really saturated - we were pretty close, I did my undergrad in Michigan, and my externships were in Kentucky! It sounds like you have really good experience - I'm crossing my...
  7. Sharp New Grad Residency October/November 2023

    I see! I took and passed my NCLEX in May (I don't like studying so I just took it to get it over with). My preceptorship was in Chicago at Northwestern on a pulmonary PCU. I did my externships before...
  8. Sharp New Grad Residency October/November 2023

    I am guessing you have applied to Sharp before - what units did you apply to last time? Seems like we will be waiting for a while so I figured I'd just keep talking on here

  10. UCSD New Grad Residency November 2023

    Yeahhhhh haha! Peds is my top choice - I was hoping there would be NICU placements at the other hospitals but I know those slots are so

    Yay! Thank you for making one! I applied to SICU and MICU at
  14. UCSD New Grad Residency November 2023

    I wish we could know more about their hiring process and how they decide. I feel like the extra certifications will help a bit! I have ACLS, PALS, and NRP. I did two externships and my preceptorship...
  15. UCSD New Grad Residency November 2023

    Really hope not! There's a lot less positions this time. Fingers
  16. UCSD New Grad Residency November 2023

    What units did you all apply to?

  20. Helloooo! Rady Children's app closed yesterday so I'm starting another topic to communicate and support each other! I applied to NICU, PICU, and Medical - where did all of you apply? Good luck...

  22. UCSD New Grad Residency November 2023

    I wasn't able to join the webinar! Did they share what units will accept new grads this cycle and say definitively when the applications open? Thank you so much in
  23. NCLEX

    Did you decide on when you will be taking your test? I wish I had an answer too! I use Archer and have the same score range. I just got my ATT and made my test date June 6th. At this point I just want...
  24. I kind of looked at med surg positions but I think I am going to go through one more round of new grad residencies. I am moving to San Diego at the end of this month so I think I will continue my...
