Thank you Suzanne... 1MOMtoRN -- that is exactly the way I feel, CERTAIN. and it just doesn't compute. Hours and hours of testing, great GPA, excellent results from all diagnostic readiness tests.... it's my lifelong dream, I know I would make a great nurse because nursing makes me so happy and really just about LOVE all my patients... and it all comes down to these 75 questions??? There were a gazillion things I studied that they didn't ask... But there I was. You know, you're a little tired, your neck hurts, you're nervous, trying to control anxiety, take deep breaths....you eliminate your choices and you could just go either way on the remaining choices....either way.... Maybe I overstudied and just burned out a bit. you ladies are true inspirations. Maybe all is not lost. Without your promise of "possibility," I would be even more of a mess than I am... I hope I experience the same happy ending you did. Thanks again.

Oh my God, me too. It shut off on me today at 75 questions and I was stunned. It was the hardest test I ever took. I have a great GPA and 4 diagnostic tests that indicated I would surely pass. But oh.. it was so hard. I walked out of there more or less certain that I failed because there were so few that I feel I knew absolutely. and the rest is just a blur... I can't remember any of the questions. I have a GN job lined up and everything, I'm sick.

Anyone a BC3 nursing student?
Hi Marci, I am just finishing up the BC3 nursing program, being pinned next Wednesday! I've never commented on this board, I came on to look at people's opinions of a new Stethoscope because I can't hear very well with my Littman..... and I saw the Pennsylvania region and saw your post Please email me [email protected] - anytime. The Bucks program is VERY hard. Make no mistake about it, but it is absolutely doable. Hundreds have gone before you and hundreds will come after you. I have 3 kids, but they are not babies. a few of my fellow students have 4. Like you I wish I knew more about the program before I entered or had someone to talk with about what to expect, so again, email me and we can be more specific. congratulations on your acceptance into the program, I know it is very competitive. It has changed me and my life entirely for the better. I feel very well prepared to enter nursing, although I know I will always have plenty more to learn. Good luck! Patrice
