   The numbers are kinda all over the place. I'm a public health/community specialty and so is one other person. There's like 8 geriatric specialties, maybe 2 mental health, 2 admin, and a handful of women's health specialties.

   Last year's wait list was by specialty. Two people in my program were both #4 for their different specialties. So it seems like it's the same this year. It varies. Last semester we were on campus like 3 days a week. This semester is maybe 2,...

   Last year they gave people waitlist numbers based on their chosen specialty, did they just give you a general number this year?

    It's a 3 year, 6 semester program. You are eligible to take the NCLEX after year 2 but can't really work as a nurse until after you finish year 3.
