1. Am I over reacting?

   Guest1212520 replied to Butterfly2023's topic in General Students

   Yes, you are overreacting. It is a scrape, not a wound. If it was a wound, most likely there would have been some blood. Since there was no blood, there was no possibility of infection. If you really need to know, I guess you can go to your doc...

2. Admitted with any C grades

   Guest1212520 replied to Erickalcar's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Hi, I hope I can help! Granted, I have only been accepted to one, but very selective and rigorous program ABSN, I can tell you that the lowest GPA that was accepted into a 20-seat ABSN program during my time was 3.75. In addition, a TEAS score of a...

3. Do I have a chance of getting in?

   Guest1212520 replied to carolinepsych's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I did not apply to those programs, but I did do ABSN programs a few years ago. I do not think schools will care about your undergrad degree GPA; as long as you have a degree in any other area, you will qualify for ABSN or direct entry MSN. What matte...

4. ASBN Programs in NYC

   Guest1212520 replied to RaquelR's topic in School Programs

   Hi, I know this post is almost 3 months late, but I hope it is not too late! Anyways, I also have two degrees, BA and MS, so I wanted to do the ABSN as well, back in 2016! I did the prereqs at multiple CUNY schools for like 2 years before I appl...

5. TEAS exam

   Guest1212520 replied to Tt_'s topic in General Students

   Like the previous poster said, your best bet is to check with the school you wish to apply to. Generally, even if you do get a passing score, it does not guarantee your seat in the nursing program. Similarly, just because you may have a minimum GPA, ...

6. Can't make a decision

   Guest1212520 replied to Brianna West's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Well, better late than never! I attempted to do ABSN a few years ago, which was 12-month program. It was not too expensive as I went to a public senior college. It was a lot of work, I will tell you that! Even though I did well in my classes, I ...

8. Portage Learning Prerequisites …HARD

   Guest1212520 replied to fitzelliott's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I agree with the above post. Take your prereqs at a community college. If you are from NYC, I'd recommend laguardia, BMCC, or Queensborough CC. I am as well a career changer. I have been a teacher for 12 years. I did attempt ABSN 5 years ago at ...

9. Edward Elmhurst PCTs

   Guest1212520 replied to Vanessa DelToro's topic in Technicians

   I do not think your hair should be an issue. As far as the hours of operation, this is a good question to ask during the interview. Some tips: Research the institution, particularly its vision and mission statement. You want to align ...

10. DaVita PCT Training

    Guest1212520 replied to Guest1212520's topic in Urology

    Hi there! Thank you so much for answering my questions! To tell you the truth, I had done my research on DaVita prior to applying and a big red flag for me was exactly what you mentioned in the last sentence: high turnover rate. I mean, all I s...

11. What are the things that make you want to leave nursing?

    Guest1212520 replied to Red Shirt 6's topic in General Nursing

    I may be the odd one out since I am not a nurse, but soon to be PCT. However, I have been a teacher for 12 years, trying to get my foot in the door of healthcare. I was thinking of doing nursing sometimes down the line, a few years from now. I ...

12. Is nursing school REALLY that hard?

    Guest1212520 replied to Courtney M's topic in General Students

    I attempted to do ABSN a few years ago. It was a 12-month program. I was one of the 20 lucky ones to be chosen! I was over the moon! At the half point through the program I began to crash and burn. My mental and physical health was shaky. Lots of rea...

13. First term RN school

    Guest1212520 replied to Erickalcar's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Hi there! I hope I can help! I did the ABSN program, well, I attempted. It was a 12-month program at Lehman College in the Bronx, NYC. I had two prior degrees so I thought ABSN was the way to go! It was extremely fast paced and a "trial by...

14. Applying for Schools

    Guest1212520 replied to nurse2bguy555's topic in General Students

    You can apply to those schools because the minimum GPA might be 2.5. However, most likely you will not be accepted since there will be hundreds of students with perfect GPAs. Your best bet is to retake certain classes, especially if they are pre-reqs...

    Guest1212520 replied to Wallflower93's topic in General Students

    You should. Let the school know ASAP so they know how to accommodate you.
