Vernika, What were the first two weeks like?? Did they dive right in with starting clinicals? I am guessing since it is around 19 hours for the semester, that they break the classes up into minimesters...Would you be able to give an example of...

I took the pax test before I could apply for the ASN program at Delgado. It is an entrance test they use to determine if you're ready for school. You have to make over 100 to get in the program. It is out of 200...I *think*

The class average was a 68%. There was around 30 of us in the class and I was one of only 3 A's. It is a VERY tough class IMO...I worked harder in that class than any other prereq. You have to put the study time in to succeed. Good Luck!!!
