I understand that the GA BON list posted in this thread only uses pass rates from first-attempts on the NCLEX for their list. Here is another legitimate site that states this information in the title and references the BON statistics: http://www.usg....

I had a very similar situation as you except that all the schools in my area had high pass rates and were difficult to get in. Looking at the programs I decided I didn't want to wait for a chance to get into the BSN programs later on when I could alr...

I know the ATI TEAS V study guide is kind of pricey, but I found it an invaluable tool when I was preparing and I think it is the reason my score was competitive. The way the questions were worded in particular in the reviews was very helpful as they...

Knittingmonster or any other current GPC students: Can you please tell us if the uniforms run large, small, or just as the measurements describe? When I look at the uniform catalog thing online it said I would be an extra small, but I am normally a ...

For those accepted for Spring 2011, are you going to be taking other classes besides the fundamentals 8 credit hours? I have to take 12 credit hours for my financial aid and was worried it would be quite a challenge to take 2 other classes + nursing ...

Thanks for the info, that is very helpful. :)

Wonderful, joyful, and inspiring- LOVED it! Thank you so much for sharing it with us! :heartbeat

The folks in my class just had theirs done at the UPS store or Walgreens. It is already correctly sized and framed so it can be cut smaller if the school needs to, but quite honestly the quality is kind of blah. Hope it isn't for our badges because I...

I don't have any way to verify this, but I was told that weekend clinicals are typically in places a bit farther from ATL like Rockdale Medical and that you can elect to do them over weekday clinicals if you would like to volunteer for them. Again, t...

I am not sure where you are located, but my friend worked towards going to GPC and is now trying to get into a BSN program instead. They said they will have to take several new courses including a different chem and they mentioned classes like human ...

I'm sorry you haven't heard anything yet, but can you call the school and check in? Maybe the letter was lost in the mail or was sent to an alternate address, that way you can try to find out one way or the other in case. Best of luck to you and co...

Congrats to those that have their acceptance letters and I bet folks still waiting will get theirs today and the wait will be over! :) I was going through my packet and it said there was a medical form enclosed, but I didn't see one anywhere. Did ...

I just received my acceptance letter, too! I can't stop smiling! :)

Well, it's September now, so only weeks until the GPC deadline. I can't imagine they would send them out right before the 30th, so I am hoping it will be any day now. I am still checking the mailbox all too frequently.. my mail carrier is starting to...

I completely agree with all of the above. I realized I blush when I am embarrassed for myself or someone else, when I am laughing or am trying not to, when I am really mad or upset, when I am surprised, when I find someone very attractive, or when I ...

I agree with an2on and used to be in a similar situation a you. I had a BS in psych with a dual major in another liberal arts field. I worked for several years and earlier this year my office closed due to the bad economy and I ended up going back to...

I am checking the mail every day. :)

I applied for Spring 2011 back in late April I believe and have taken the TEAS, too. I know they said that a letter would arrive by the end of Sept., but I am still checking my mail box every day! :)

I took chem and A & P I and II at GPC. I have been fortunate and have had good experiences, but it REALLY depends on your professor as I have been hearing horror stories about some of them. Check the rate my professor website before you make a de...

I would also love to hear some more current feedback from students that are in the program at GPC now or have just recently completed it. :) Thank you!

Hi everyone, My lab partner and I are registering for A & P II this summer, but there are only two options to chose from and neither are ideal. Can someone who has taken this class already tell me which of these they would choose and why: 1. ...

Sorry, I don't mean to ask again, but surely someone here has taken the A & P II lab and could tell me if they felt it was possible to do in four weeks time? Or even in eight weeks with an instructor that was not familiar with the subject? My lab...

Can someone please help me understand how TEAS works with the ASN programs? Up until this semester, GPC required the NET and on their website it still has the old info for admission and it says you must take the entrance exam BEFORE applying to their...

After years of wanting to be a nurse but being unable to do so, I am being laid off from my job (plant closure/bad economy) and am taking the bad news as an opportunity to try to get into nursing school, even if I will probably have to eat ramen nood...

Does anyone know if there is a list somewhere of GA schools that require the HESI exit exam? I would have never realized that could be an issue until I read it here. Thanks!
