  1. Jennifer, Ah, I see - you are right - one of my instructors was the one who told us about these HESI products. She gave us certain numbers to use if we purchased the case studies and/or the practice...
  2. Jennifer, I searched for "case studies" in the search box at evolve.elsevier.com and was able to find them. There is one that says "Evolve Case Studies" and one that says "Evolve Case Studies with...
  3. I am doing at least 100 questions a day (and completed all of Qbank and the Question Trainers through Kaplan). Reading over previous posts, I guess that is an adequate number. The Saunders book says...

    The Dreaded Resume

    I am revising my resume for another interview that I have. I know you should add the past 10 years of work experience on your job applications, but should you add all of your work experiences on your...

    I have had two interviews so far, and both of them consisted of two in one day. First interview: I met with the recruiter first, which I thought went well. Then I had a panel interview not even an...

    CNM Floirida Programs

    Hi CLC172, The only school I know of in FL that has a CNM program is UF. I thought that U. of Miami had one, but they don't seem to have one anymore. The Tampa bay area seems to be pretty good place...

    I hate how the "system" works at my nursing school.

    Our school has us take the Kaplan review (mandatory) in our last semester. We can choose between the live or online one. They are both very similar in that we have the same diagnostic, question...
  14. Our school had us take several HESI exams in addition to the comprehensive one. We took Fundamentals, Pharmacology, Med-Surg, Psych, OB, Peds, and the comprehensive HESI exams. When asking advice from...

    Recession

    I'm sorry that you've applied to so many places and have not gotten answers. How frustrating! You may already be doing this, but after you submit an application, make sure you follow-up with a phone...

    EMAIL thank you letter after job interview?

    Is it alright to send a handwritten card PLUS an email to thank them for interviewing you? Or is that too much? I just want to make sure that a thank you gets there somehow, on time, but I want to be...

    Tampa Area Hospitals

    I have heard good things about Tampa General Hospital and St. Joseph's Hospital. TGH is a magnet facility and is a Level I Trauma center. I had to look up Riverview on a map, and it looks like Brandon...

    Can't get a job as new RN

    Just wondering if anyone had applied to FL Hospital and has been waiting for a while for them to make a decision? I applied to one of the GN positions back on March 24th of this year. Now they are...
  20. Just bumping the thread up to see if there are any new grads working at either Florida Hospital or Orlando Health. How was your experience with their internship

    My HESI story.

    Our school has the students take HESIs for various subjects. We do have to buy the tickets for each exam. Students also had to take the exit HESI and get an 850 on it to graduate. If a student did not...
