Hello everyone! I have been a night-time ortho nurse for a little over a year now (my first nursing job) and am switching to day-time peds next week. While ortho has been good to me, I felt like it was time to move on to something I was really passio...

Hi everyone. I'm pretty conflicted and looking for some guidance. I'm in my maternity rotation and my clinical teacher has suggested that I apply for an L&D preceptorship. I looooove L&D. But I also love other specialties (specifically ER). I...

I usually do the pre-lecture reading because I feel like it helps sink the information in. However, there is nothing I hate more than reading material for the following test when there is a test right in front of me. So if I have a test I give up pre...

I jumped up and down then went to the zoo.

I agree with most of the people on here. It's an emotional rollercoaster and it beat the everything out of me too. But it's what I want to do and there are days that are horrible that I try to remember why I want to even be a nurse:banghead: and then...

Hello everyone. Does anyone know when they send out the decision letters from CSU stanislaus? I got into the ohlone program but it is an associate program and since I'm planning on getting a BSN eventually I would really rather go to a CSU right away...

hm.... I don't think I spoke to him but I think I know who you are talking about.

I noticed today that they said they were going to go over malpractice insurance and those three modules (on the website where we turned in our immunization records) at the orientation. I don't know about the concord campus, but no one mentioned it at...

Congratulations! Does anyone know if we can accept financial aid awards yet? Because they show on my page and it has a button that says "accept/decline awards" but when I click on it it doesn't let me accept any. I tried emailing the financial aid o...

Wow you guys made me feel so much better. I am going to call tomorrow morning and see if I can talk to someone though. I sent three copies of my transcripts so I should be fine. And I am going to the Hayward campus (even if my little old car can bare...

I'm so confused!!! I am still waiting for it to say I was accepted into the school. It said provisional admission a few days ago and it still doesn't say they received my transcripts. Now it says "AL Data Verification Needed" in my application status...

Argh! So I got into the Nursing Program for fall 2010 and I got all the usual vaccinations and titers. I got the Td shot because that was what was listed. Then my school sent me an email they changed it to Tdap. That's fine, and I went to my doctor, ...

Whew! They are giving me a year to get the right shot. I just have to have it before my pediatrics class. I think it was about two days short of 4 weeks in between the two shots. I was kind of annoyed at the mistake but I can see how it can get lost ...

YAY! Fall schedule is up. I know, I know, I'm a nerd.

HAHA! I laughed so hard when I read the beginning. It kind of reminds me of myself except with greys anatomy. I do realize that it won't be the same but I can't lie that that was my inspiration. I'm kind of scared of the question "Why do you want to ...

Paganoid- I was considering keeping my part time job during at least the beginning of school. Only thing is that my employer needs to know my schedule two weeks ahead of time. I noticed you said that we will be doing just a few days of clinical our f...

Lol I really love the country so I guess I'm opposite of you. I like hearing the birds singing and people playing their guitars out on there porches.... As opposed to my neighbor who won't stop playing his drum! Lol, anyways, sad as though it may be,...

I think we are supposed to print the whole thing out, answer the questions by ourselves, then review them with our doctor so they can clear us to wear the masks. I find it weird they require this though. Isn't it just a mask. And thanks for answering...

No I live in Newark so I'm not too far from it. It will be no more than a half hour drive, if that. But my car is so old I am going to have to park at the bart station and take a bus up that big hill. Lol, my car would not make it, especially on a re...

I just finished my pre-req's and was accepted into a fall BSN program. In high school I got A's and B's and never cracked the book. I then went to a community college and didn't know what I wanted to do at first so I just took GE classes. Again, I ne...

Oh wow, that's good to know. I was just thinking I had to sign up for a CPR class.

I'm glad to hear your friend likes it. I was worried about it because it's the only school I applied to that I didn't hear anything about.

Yeah, people who get in decide all the time that they can't. They have money problems or they get pregnant. I think you have a really good chance. I do feel bad that your wait isn't over though. I was going crazy watching the mailbox every day. At le...

I think you should get your hopes up. Every school I've talked to says they usually accept about 15 people off the alternate list. 6 is a really good number.

Courcat! You followed me onto this thread! Lol, it was me that said I applied at Stanislaus. Didn't get in by a long shot. Alternate 49. Good luck to you! Oh and I was originally an alternate at East Bay too. When I talked to them they asked me my pr...
