Sunray, Wow! Thanks for the breakdown on each semester's schedule... It's really very helpful to see how everything is laid out.

RN2B, I think (please chime in current students) you will still take the same classes as in any semester, but the May program is a few weeks shorter than the Aug or Jan start dates and therefore sounds more intense because their still going to cover ...

As far as saving your seat, it's fine to defer until August. No one knows your personal situation better than yourself and therefore you know what's best. Just remember though that May is still two months away and maybe as the start of the program ...

Jam, Good luck to you in the fall with BC...Good to see you're not throwing in the towel...

WillBe, You must be very proud of yourself! I'm so glad to hear that you are now proceeding to process II. These experiences, as nerve-racking as they may be, will make you that much stronger and smarter too! Please keep me updated on process II...

Thank you all (again) for all of the tips and advice. You are all Awesome!!! As far as the online math--I definitely do better with face to face classes. Not to mention the workload (at least for me) has always been much heavier with on-line classe...

Sorry to hear about your accident DawnSue and hope you're feeling better. Good luck in August!

Sunray, Sorry to hear you missed that "B" by two points. Drives me nuts to know I'm that close. I guess the good thing is that there is not a lot of time to beat yourself up about it in nursing school, lol. For pharm, can you PM me with any recom...

Romano, Thank you!!! I'm so excited, happy, (nervous, ugh), and proud. So many emotions, lol. I just can't wait to begin this "roller coaster of a ride" and hope that I make it to the end. Very best!

Hi Shescoolie, Thank you for your response. It's great to hear that for the most part this 100hr rule is Not the norm. Like I said earlier, I'll do whatever it takes, but 100hrs a week better equate to more than a "C". I started reading the Vita...

ps, During the meeting they enlightened (lol) us that classes/clinicals and studying will take 100hr/wk and this will give us an average of a "C". Are you doing this 100hr/wk??? Is this the norm from what you've seen in your class or for yourself? ...

Awesome! Thanks ShesCoolie. I attended the pre-admission (quite a few deferring seats) session this morning where they provided us with what I'll call a "Welcome" letter and there it suggests we read the Vital Signs chapter ahead of time so it's gr...

JTweety, Congratulations to you too!!! I'm very happy to be starting the program in May--Cannot wait! I've been reading the fundamentals book a little, but not as much as I'd like--I'm only on the 3rd chapter. Time to get more serious this week w...

I think (and I'm not the authority, lol) but probably the sooner you take micro the better, as (I'm guessing) it may help in understanding/recognizing how infections occur and spread, which bacteria/viruses cause which infections or diseases, resista...

Thanks Bumblebee! Yep, that's what I keep hearing so I'm going to follow everyone's advice. Kinda strange after having been steadily employed for approx. twenty years and suddenly having no employment. I'm just going to go into the program with the...

Definitely sounds like a hectic first clinical. I hope you have a (much) better experience next week. I'm not in school yet (start in May at BC, north campus) and must admit I'm somewhat fearful of days like these. Just thinking about it makes me ...

I did take micro awhile back and at this point glad I did. One less thing to do in the program too. I'm looking forward to attending the pre-admission session and receiving all of the information we need prior to starting the program, i.e. book lis...

Hi RN2B, I was also accepted and thrilled about it!!! I'm so ready to become a full time student and dive right in. At this point though I'm still working, but given that the program begins in just a few short months I'm scaling down my workload s...

Dawnsue, No, he did not get accepted as an alternate, sigh. I believe, and it's pretty much confirmed on the BC nursing page, that after they use you pre-req grades then they use the highest grade in co-reqs. I'm also very surprised that 12 points...

Successful, Smart that you applied to both schools! Good luck to you.

Well, the guy I know did not get in either. He had 12pts and is very disappointed...

Thank you all very, very much. I will work really hard and keep you all posted (and proud too, grinning ) to give you a heads up--but please don't be too sad. There is always the alternate list. I will be back on later tonigh...

Man, sorry you guys. I wonder if the "space aval" is because of people like me who have not yet received the e-mail that we have to either "accept" or "decline" our seats... Don't throw in the towel quite yet. Remember--a lot of people are going...

Jonathan, I got it. points were 14 total.

Jam, Yours said with space aval. or no space aval??? Sorry if I'm not replying so quickly--I have to work in-between...
