  1. TEAS _ science portion

    sosiouxme replied to lulu0704's topic in General Nursing

    The Study Guide is a little intimidating because it goes way above and beyond what is actually on the test; that's good, however, because when you take the test you're so much more relived after the...

  2. TEAS _ science portion

    sosiouxme replied to lulu0704's topic in General Nursing

    They give you

  3. TEAS _ science portion

    sosiouxme replied to lulu0704's topic in General Nursing

    I wish I had my Study Guide but threw it away after the test. But I seem to remember that the last page (literally one page), and the back of the last page at that, had all that stuff on rock...

  4. Has anyone gotten accepted into any nursing programs with B's in all 3 pre-req's

    sosiouxme replied to madi'smomi's topic in California Nursing

    Saddleback accepts 60 students a semester, and 25% of those are lottery. They also have an additional 15 people take the TEAS and those people are considered "Alternates." This semester, every one...

  5. changes of admission to Golden West college and Santa Ana college

    sosiouxme replied to lauren19's topic in California Nursing

    Santa Ana WILL be accepting applications, only not for their 600+ Wait List. The list is going out the window and, like the other local J.C.'s, SAC is switching to accepting applications every...

  6. Human Physiology Class Online

    sosiouxme replied to sweatpea23's topic in Online Distance Learning

    The thing about Santa Ana is that the Nursing pre-requisite classes are really impacted; unless you already have a lot of units at SAC you won't have priority registration and will end up something...

  7. Are there really RN Jobs in Southern California?

    sosiouxme replied to onesmartgirl's topic in California Nursing

    Even though there is a "nursing shortage," it's theoretical only. It doesn't mean that hospitals are hiring. A fourth semester student at my school just applied to UCLA and said that there were over...

  8. TEAS _ science portion

    sosiouxme replied to lulu0704's topic in General Nursing

    I had only one Physics question, and I don't remember what it was but it was as basic as you can get; I think it was something about the "ball on a string" thing. Everyone who tested at my program...

  9. Anyone accepted to Georgetown?

    sosiouxme replied to Kelzy's topic in General Nursing

    They have about 25 people in each interview. You all meet in a room and have "Orientation." They show a video, and have staff members pitch a spiel about the program. One thing I can tell you is...

  10. Advice on classes please :) *also any saddleback students out there?

    sosiouxme replied to nursingschool4mama's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I hadn't taken Biology in 25 years, and still got A's in all my prerequisites. I recently took Chemistry and, although I liked it, it didn't have anything that I hadn't already learned in Micro and...

  11. Any other SAC nursing students? (How long did it take?)

    sosiouxme replied to CaffeinePRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I also found out that the schools are moving to require Chemistry as a prerequisite - Saddleback will do it as of Fall '09 and either the students will have to score a certain percentage on a Chem....

  12. Nurse Aide background checks

    sosiouxme replied to KarynicaRN's topic in Illinois Nursing

    I got admitted despite a DUI from less than 3 years ago. Check with the state where you want to go to school: California only lets background checks go back 7 years, but the school still let me in...

  13. Any other SAC nursing students? (How long did it take?)

    sosiouxme replied to CaffeinePRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes, but the thing about "depleting their list" is that it depends on how they do it. If they decide to go with their new system and then only take a small percentage off the list, people whose...

  14. Any other SAC nursing students? (How long did it take?)

    sosiouxme replied to CaffeinePRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I read about the Sana Ana stuff on their web site. They said they no longer will have the "Wait List" system after June, but didn't say exactly how they were going to do their admissions (they said...

  15. Any other SAC nursing students? (How long did it take?)

    sosiouxme replied to CaffeinePRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just heard that Santa Ana (per new California legislation) is finally doing away with their Wait List; as of 2009 they are doing what the rest of the J.C.'s are ALREADY doing and accepting students...

  16. Anyone accepted to Georgetown?

    sosiouxme replied to Kelzy's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, but I can't go. Before the interview, I had done the online chat and asked if I could defer to Fall '09 (I have classes until December 21 and originally thought Georgetown didn't start until the...

  17. What Defines an Indian?

    sosiouxme replied to Thunderwolf's topic in General Nursing

    The Cherokee Nation did not "involuntarily disenroll" African Americans. EVERY TRIBAL MEMBER was able to vote (I even received a ballot, and I'm in California now), and the tribe overwhelmingly...

  18. Georgetown Accelerated BSN

    sosiouxme replied to firstyearRN's topic in School, College Programs

    I love the simulation labs; I guess the thing I'm most worried about is the course load. I took several of the required classes (Pharmacology, Human Development, the second Theology, etc.) that fill...

  19. Georgetown Accelerated BSN

    sosiouxme replied to firstyearRN's topic in School, College Programs

    You don't interview with a local alumni, at least not anymore. There were 21 candidates at my interview session: first we broke into three groups and did a scenario while "raters" looked, listened,...

  20. long beach city college and other college q's

    sosiouxme replied to tina55's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Some people are already LVN's; they decided later on that they wanted to move up to being an RN. Most people that I've talked to don't go through an LVN route JUST to get into an RN program

  21. Saddleback Spring '09

    sosiouxme replied to AOX4RN's topic in California Nursing

    Yeah, I guess it was a little terse:chuckle. The reason was that our Pharmacology teacher posted a notice on Blackboard last Tuesday or so, asking people to PLEASE stop calling the Nursing office and...

  22. Saddleback Spring '09

    sosiouxme replied to AOX4RN's topic in California Nursing

    Notices came out today. If you're in, you're in; if you're not, you're

  23. Any other SAC nursing students? (How long did it take?)

    sosiouxme replied to CaffeinePRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congratulations O.C. Angels Fan! I know two other people who got "invited" to SAC for Spring 2009, but they were notified in July, so are taking Pharmacology and the Nursing 112 now. It's weird how...

  24. Any other SAC nursing students? (How long did it take?)

    sosiouxme replied to CaffeinePRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    In addition, people who are applying to SAC and are in the EOPS program, and are International Students get in almost immediately. I know someone who only had 26 points, and was placed at number 536...

  25. Any other SAC nursing students? (How long did it take?)

    sosiouxme replied to CaffeinePRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    OC Angelsfan: If you have 35 points, you should be admitted in Fall of 2009, and should receive a letter sometime between this October and November. Just to be on the safe side, though, you should...
