  2. Applying to LSUHSC-NO CARE Program for Fall 2010

    cpkRN replied to nrs.to.be's topic in Louisiana Nursing

    I just started in CARE also. I'm not sure how much it's going to end up costing either but take a look at the link beejaycee gave above, then add another Fall and Spring onto it. That's how I decided...

  3. Confused with the competitiveness in Nursing... can someone explain

    cpkRN replied to 45whenimdone's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had several similar experiences but one stands out amongst the rest. A girl in my A &P I class became frustrated, stood up, and screamed, "Why do I have to know all this crap*? I just want to...

    cpkRN replied to altbsn2010's topic in Louisiana Nursing

    You sound quite a bit like one of the students who interviewed me - very no nonsense "this is how it will be" talk. Scared the beejeebus out of me, but I had made my choice. One thing he said was,...

    cpkRN replied to Boogs1203's topic in Louisiana Nursing

    Exactly. It's not the PUBLISHED, official numbers - those, of course, cannot be faked. It's the information that is being VERBALLY relayed to prospective students. When I was informed of pass...

    cpkRN replied to altbsn2010's topic in Louisiana Nursing

    Yay! Now the 12th can't come soon enough. I was just sitting here thinking that this time next year, I'll probably be cursing my textbooks and wondering what I got myself into.

    cpkRN replied to altbsn2010's topic in Louisiana Nursing

    Based on this line alone, I can't wait to meet you! I'll be a very normal looking, 30's blonde that isn't nearly as talkative in person as she is online! LOL! But seriously, my thoughts are the same...

    cpkRN replied to altbsn2010's topic in Louisiana Nursing

    P.S. If I heard letters went out last week at this time and I hadn't gotten mine yet, you couldn't have peeled me off the walls with that nasty stuff people use to remove wallpaper! Imagine a...

    cpkRN replied to altbsn2010's topic in Louisiana Nursing

    cpkRN replied to altbsn2010's topic in Louisiana Nursing

    Mine was also on the 7th - early afternoon if I remember correctly. Looking back in the thread, I see others had theirs the following Saturday the 14th. That's where my theory came from .

    cpkRN replied to altbsn2010's topic in Louisiana Nursing

    Wonder if they went by interview date? I had my interview the first weekend. How about everyone else? One set sent one week, the others the next? Just guessing and hoping for everyone. I know had I...
