  1. Thomas Jefferson FACT program

    AtomicWoman replied to greenland's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Congrats! I'm actually surprised there are 3 spots left -- good for you for snagging the 4th spot! See you in

  2. Gloucester County College Nursing HESI exam question

    AtomicWoman replied to marygkk's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    One of the sites that helped me a lot was http://sparknotes.com. Poke around there and see what they have for bio and chem. The site was a huge help in helping me remember the "big picture" of DNA...

  3. Thomas Jefferson FACT Program

    AtomicWoman replied to jello18966's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    No, I haven't seen a list, and I'm betting they haven't put one together yet. You can always log onto your Pulse account, and post a message on the student message board that's there. They don't get a...

  4. Thomas Jefferson FACT Program

    AtomicWoman replied to jello18966's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Yeah, I don't know why they don't have the info about the BLS requirement somewhere on the nursing school website, in giant bold letters. But one of the other schools I got accepted to last year...

  5. Reading Hospital School of Nursing

    AtomicWoman replied to ecf1972's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You may want to post this under the Regional forum, Pennsylvania Nurses / Pennsylvania Nursing programs. You might get more responses

  6. still no job

    AtomicWoman replied to mume2mykidz's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    iRN86, does your school have any career fairs scheduled? That's one place to start looking early. Go to the table of every hospital at the career

  7. Gloucester County College Nursing HESI exam question

    AtomicWoman replied to marygkk's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    Be sure to check the last date for re-taking the HESI before applying; isn't it sometime next month or early March? I was accepted there (did not go there, though) and my composite was over 97%. But...

  8. Thomas Jefferson University Hospital

    AtomicWoman replied to gogatsby's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    This is good news that they are interviewing. Jefferson has had a hiring freeze for a while. When I'm done with school, I hope to work for Jeff or Penn, but heck, I'll work anywhere I can to get that...

  9. hep c positive and entering clinical

    AtomicWoman replied to avantgauze's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I second what ccunurse said. For your sake and the sake of your future patients, you need to deal with this head-on. You might want to post this question under the General Nursing Discussion and see...

  10. Writeatermpaper.com

    AtomicWoman replied to Ms. Nurse Assistant's topic in General Students

    When I was in graduate school, one of the professors in my department told an amazing story. One of her undergrad students had bought one of these term papers. It so happened that the professor worked...

  11. Writeatermpaper.com

    AtomicWoman replied to Ms. Nurse Assistant's topic in General Students

    Where on earth did you get this idea? I am an academic, went through grad school, defended a dissertation, taught at a university, the whole 9 yards. Believe me, NO ONE simply makes little "updates"...

  12. Not NLNAC Accredited school cause problems later??

    AtomicWoman replied to kneecole06's topic in General Students

    I wouldn't worry too much about this. Not all schools choose to go for NLN accreditation, which can be time-consuming and expensive. As long as they have approval of the state BON, that's what's...

  13. PA NCLEX Pass Rates updated to 9/2008

    AtomicWoman posted a topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Pennsylvania program NCLEX pass rates have been updated through the end of September, 2008. Check the sticky by NurseKarenRN at the top of the PA Nurses forum, or go here:...

  14. Thomas Jefferson FACT Program

    AtomicWoman replied to jello18966's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Ya know, they do their darnedest to hide that requirement on the website! The only place I could find it just now was in the nursing student handbook, on p. 48:...

  15. Thomas Jefferson FACT Program

    AtomicWoman replied to jello18966's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Don't forget to sign up for a BLS for Healthcare Providers course if you haven't already! I did that last August through JeffStat. Glad I got that out of the way.

  16. Thomas Jefferson FACT Program

    AtomicWoman replied to jello18966's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Yes, I got that message from Niki, too. It kind of cracked me up that she basically said we should be prepared for a full week, even though they haven't set the start date yet. Welcome to nursing...

  17. Thomas Jefferson FACT program

    AtomicWoman replied to greenland's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Definitely check with them. My sense is that you'll need to wait until next year, but it NEVER hurts to ask and make sure. :) Best of

  18. Layoffs!!!

    AtomicWoman replied to mina123's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    Thanks for that info! Do you own a home or do you know how property taxes compare to NJ? They sure are killer taxes here in NJ!

  19. Thomas Jefferson FACT program

    AtomicWoman replied to greenland's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    If you want to start in May 2010 -- a year from this coming May -- the application won't be available until August. Assuming, of course, that they do it the way they've always done it. This year, they...

  20. Thomas Jefferson FACT Program

    AtomicWoman replied to jello18966's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I accepted to several last year (TJU, Lourdes, GCC), but this year I only applied to TJU, because I was switching from their 2-year APW program (accepted to it) to the 1-year FACT program. Kind of...

  21. Thomas Jefferson FACT program

    AtomicWoman replied to greenland's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I can almost guarantee you that the program is filled, but don't take my word for it. Give them a call! They may also still be taking wait-list applications. I don't know what their numbers looked...

  22. Thomas Jefferson FACT Program

    AtomicWoman replied to jello18966's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Well, at least it's not just me. I don't know if they've made any changes to tuition, but here's the tuition as of last year: http://www.jefferson.edu/registrar/tuition.cfm Basically, $32,000 for...

  23. Should spelling count?

    AtomicWoman replied to betc's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks for the laugh! Maybe you should keep a collection of these and publish them some day. :) I personally like sinkopee. Although unstable lady parts could be pretty scary!

  24. Best way to review A&P before start of NS

    AtomicWoman replied to ImNotWitty's topic in General Students

    Gosh, Daytonite, I always feel a little calmer just reading your reassuring posts.

  25. NeedHelp - an interview for an accelerated BSN

    AtomicWoman replied to sunrain123's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you do a search via the search box at the top of each page, you'll find a bunch of threads about interviewing. For my ABSN interview, the interviewer asked me a bunch of questions designed to...
