  1. Any UCLA MECN students out there?

    Hi, I applied for the UCLA MECN program starting fall 2007. I have already been accepted to other schools and am trying to decide where I would go. I know UCLA is a great school but I also know this MECN program is not even a year old yet. I tried...

  3. Any UCLA MECN students out there?

    hmmmm what should I do? any suggestions? I know you said Epi 100 is tougher but I also want to learn as much as I can..Do they go over more? What is tough about it? Is it impossible? Is it because it is a summer class and everything is too condensed...
  5. Any UCLA MECN students out there?

    I wrote you a blog on the other one you responded too...I was also wondering..where you live? Is it hard to commute or do you live in the grad housing? How much time do you have in between your finals you just took and when you classes start again? ...

  7. Accepted to UCLA's 2007 MECN Program!

    What is the N50 course? Im worried...I just signed up for the one at UCLA summer school and they say it counts towards our GPA... Could I ask you what exactly is meant by bedside nurse? You said in the other blog that UCLA just prepares you to be a ...

    oh my gosh is it really $877 for one epi class at UCLA? Did I do something wrong?
  10. Accepted to UCLA's 2007 MECN Program!

    Hey! I still need to do my epi requirement if I go to UCLA as well. They are not offering it in spring but they will have it in the summer. It is not through UCLA extension though, it will be through UCLA summer school which is different. Usually...
  11. Accepted to UCLA's 2007 MECN Program!

    I think everyone should go where they feel most comfortable...I have been talking to all the doctors at my hospital, the top surgeons, managers, nurses and the name doesnt matter. Its about your experience and where you feel you can best learn. In t...
  12. Accepted to UCLA's 2007 MECN Program!

    Hey Dahianna, I am really interested how come you decided to go into nursing after public health. I'm so interested because it seriously was my life dream to go into public health...That is originally what I was working towards until I had an amaz...

  14. Any Fall 2007 UCLA MECN Applicants out there?

    I also just want to add how valuable healthcare experience is. I am sure everyone is intelligent and passionate and qualified to do whatever they want to pursue but I am also sure that the admissions committee at UCLA wants to make sure that this is...
  15. Accepted to UCLA's 2007 MECN Program!

    I honestly dont know much about CSULA but I work at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and I do know we have a program with CSULA where they pay you to go to school there if you promise you will work for them for 2 years after. So we have a lot of nurses at...
  16. Accepted to UCLA's 2007 MECN Program!

    By the way I agree with you about not delving into quick APN programs..I think the best way to help others is to make sure we love what we are specializing in and that comes after experience and then taking time to learn everything we can about what ...
  17. Accepted to UCLA's 2007 MECN Program!

    Wow it is so refreshing to hear from you. I honestly have had a not so good image of UCLA. My co-worker at Cedars Sinai actually got her masters in public health at UCLA too and was one of many who told me she did not like the school. She said most ...
  18. Accepted to UCLA's 2007 MECN Program!

    I want to do APN too but I am not in rush...I am not sure what I would specialize in yet and would rather have time working as an RN for a little bit to make sure. I dont want to put all that time in specializing in something and then wish I had done...

  22. Any Fall 2007 UCLA MECN Applicants out there?

    Hi I am applying to the UCLA MECN program as well. Actually, I would love to talk to someone who is in the program or someone who knows someone in the program. I worried about the fact that it is such a new program. I know UCLA is a great school but ...
