ndaewg BSN, RN

Hey all, I have been an RN for a year. This is my second career. I completed an accelerated BSN program. I spent my first six months at an LTAC. I learned a lot and had some extremely complex patients. I left after 6 months, just in time. As the hosp...

I just logged on to Pearson's site to pay for quick results. The 'trick' was right! I PASSED! I was very skeptical (even in October when it gave me the CC screen...haha!). But it was right on. :) Interview this afternoon!

Congrats guys! I took it today too and got the good pop up. Waiting for the unofficial results on Wednesday and then I'll feel much better about it. I have an interview that day too, so crossing my fingers!!!

Congrats shoe girl!!! I took it today again (2nd time). I got around 105-110 questions. Not sure, because I wasn't paying attention. BUT, I did try the trick and it gave me the good pop up (last time I got the CC screen).

I failed in October, with 75 questions. The Pearson Trick was correct...brought me to the CC screen. I finally retested this morning. It gave me the good pop up. I wish I knew how many questions I had. When I looked, I was at 105 and I believe I had...

I am one of the 23 AO's she was referring to. Luckily, for me, my loan was forgiven by HCA in November. So no 2 years w/HCA for me. Yay!

I am a student still. I chose the PICU for my capstone class, but unfortunately I didn't get it. I toured the PICU at Children's Mercy Hospital, in Kansas City and found it amazing. I just loved the atmosphere. Someday I hope to post here saying that...

I'm in an accelerated BSN program. I'm 27 and I'll be 28 when I graduate. :)

A friend of mine is going to start in August '10 (pending prereq's and interview, etc). I am an AO student. Just over 4 months left. Let me know if you have any specific questions. :)

I live in KC. I'm starting the Research College of Nursing's Accelerated Option BSN program this August.

lyndeelou--- Where are you moving from? I'm doing the Rockhurst hours this semester and in the summer too. I'm not looking forward to them either (Philosophy & Theology= ). Are you on Myspace or Facebook? If so, PM me your info and we can keep in...

My mom will watch Evan when class is in session... so Mon-Thurs and any other times outside class hours (like Clinicals). My husband won't be able to watch him while I'm in class. He is an insurance adjuster and is in the office all week long. I'm go...

I am starting the AO program this August. I had a baby in April '07 and he'll be 16 months old when class begins. I am fortunate (I think...lol) to live 1 block away from my mother, who is a stay-at-home-mom to my 4 and 9 y/o siblings. She will be wa...

I got my letter on Thursday. I was accepted! Yay!!!! Thanks for the help everyone!

Thanks Darth. I am nervous, but excited.

I got an email today, from Leslie. I have an interview in Sept. I'm excited and super nervous! Can you tell me about the interview process? Thank you! :)

I applied for the '09 graduating class. Leslie is waiting on my references to come in, then I'll interview in September. I am hoping to get accepted! If not, I'll be sad. I've spent a good 2k on some prereqs and that is only 3 classes. How is it goi...

Has anyone here done the Accelerated BSN program at Research College of Nursing, in KC? I graduated in 2004 from CMSU, with a B.S. in public relations. I have changed my mind about my current career. I've always been interested in health care. My ori...

I haven't applied yet. Is it hard to get into? Leslie advised that I apply later this fall or next spring, since I want to begin in August 2008.

Slim, I forgot to ask . . . are you doing the HCA Midwest Forgiveness Loan program? Where you work for HCA Midwest for 2 years after school is done.

Thanks for your post Slim! I'm also in Marketing, but only for 2 years. I'm going to take two prereqs (Chemistry and Human Lifespan Development) at Longview this Fall. I'm very excited! I know you'll be very busy when you begin the program, but if ...

That's GREAT to know I can take classes at Longview, especially since it's so much cheaper. I know that I will have to take 6 hrs. of both Theology and Philosophy, A&P, Chemistry, Microbiology, Developmental Psych., Nutrition and Pathophysiology....

I just went over my transcripts about an hour ago and if I did it correctly, I would have about 30 hours to take (unless she finds some that don't transfer). I don't know if I can get those done in time to start in Aug. 07. I guess I'll just have to ...

Hi Jennifer, Thanks for replying. I think the loan forgiveness program seems great! I'm willing to work for them for 2 years. I think it would be great experience. I'm meeting with the director on Thursday. If all goes well, I will start in August 20...
