    Hey BumbleBeeRN, I'm completing my 3rd semester (4 classes from graduating) in BC's program and I haven't taken the HESI yet. It may be required in trends or perhaps on other campuses, but definately...

  3. Applying to BCC Jan 2009

    LeavingTeaching4RN replied to RN2BFawnie's topic in Florida Nursing

    I think it was about 2 weeks before I got a reply. I was anxious and nervous, but once I went to the orientation, I felt completely overwhelmed. I hadn't completed the CE courses. If I wasn't accepted...

    There are several of these programs in my area. However, they only accept applications after you've finished Med Surg I (GI/GU). You may want to look on your school's website or the websites of the...

  9. Discussing Grades with Other Students

    LeavingTeaching4RN replied to anewday's topic in General Students

    DON'T DO IT especially if you are doing well. Most students in my program earn C's. Thus far, I've earned only A's and B's. Some students have clung to me and want me to tutor them. Some whispered...

    LeavingTeaching4RN replied to AlmostThere4545's topic in Florida Nursing

    Sorry to disagree, but there are some courses that should not be curved. I think nursing is one of those courses. As far as the math, I taught 9 year olds to do conversions. Since BC's math test is in...

    LeavingTeaching4RN replied to iluvoctober's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not sure if money plays a role in your decision, but once you receive your bachelor's degree, you don't qualify for most grants and scholarships. I'm not familiar with the schools you listed. I...
