  1. New Grad...need help dealing with super negative staff!

    I had to respond when I read this. I also moved across the country for my first RN job in May of 2010, to a hospital in the middle of nowhere with horrible morale. There was very high turnover, we were always understaffed, everyone was negative, I ...
  2. Pearson Vue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 2

    PVT worked for me! I tested on the 23rd, checked as soon as I got home and got the good pop-up. Today I found out that I passed!
  3. I'm in CA, and graduated in April with my BSN. I started applying all over the country back in January....applied at over 75 hospitals. Last week I was offered a job in TX, and I start in June! It can be done, it just takes a lot of time and effor...
  4. CHRISTUS Santa Rosa - San Antonio

    I applied to most of them and haven't heard anything. I never even got a confirmation when I sent my letters and transcripts that my file was complete or anything. They seem overwhelmed with all of the applications! Hopefully we'll hear soon! Go...
  5. We had to take the predictor a few weeks ago, and it was much easier than I had anticipated. It is similar to the practice tests. If you have been taking ATI exams throughout nursing school, you'll do great. They prepare you well for the predictor...
  6. Vanderbilt's Nurse Residency Program

    I wasn't selected either... I'm definitely disappointed, but on to the next! Good luck to all of you who were selected, and to those who were not in your continued search!

  9. Vanderbilt's Nurse Residency Program

    Thanks AngelRN! How long was the time period from when the applications were due until they contacted people for interviews? Thanks and good luck this week! Let us know how it goes.
  10. parkland critical care and trauma internship

    Hey Srobinson! Have you been contacted for an interview yet? I just finished my online application and will be sending my supplemental application in on Monday. Do you have any idea how competitive the program is or how many people the accept? I ...
  11. Vanderbilt's Nurse Residency Program

    My first two choices were Peds and Adult Critical Care. I'm sure that they are the most competitive, but I figured that if I'm moving all the way across the country it should be for something that I really want! From reading this forum, it looks li...
  12. Vanderbilt's Nurse Residency Program

    Hi everyone. Congrats to all of you who are about to start next week! Is anyone here applying for the July, 2010 Residency? I'm just waiting on one more reference before I can send my packet in. I have no idea where I'll stand compared to the com...
  13. parkland critical care and trauma internship

    I called and spoke with a recruiter today regarding the critical care/trauma internship, and the first thing she asked was if I was going to have a BSN. I will so I didn't inquire further, but it almost sounded like a BSN might be necessary. I woul...
  14. Navy Nurse Candidate Program

    Does anyone know of a responsive nurse recruiter for the navy in the San Diego area? I've left a few messages on the 800 number and filled out the form on the website to be contacted early last week and nothing! Please PM me if you have any contact...
  15. University of Oklahoma-Accelerated BSN Program

    No problem, I had a lot of questions too. The campus is the new one off of Aero Drive. I'm assuming that is where you will also be for your open house if you haven't seen it yet. There will be a representative from Ace uniforms there with scrubs, ...
  16. University of Oklahoma-Accelerated BSN Program

    Labs are on campus in the skills lab. Your first semester you will be in lab twice a week- once for clinical skills lab and once for health assessment. Clinicals can be at Sharp memorial, grossmont, chula vista, or coronado. I think that the only...
  17. University of Oklahoma-Accelerated BSN Program

    Congrats to all of you who have been accepted! You will find out everything you need to know about immunizations and CPR at open house. If you want to get a head start, there are some previous posts with all of the information about them. I would...
  18. In-School Loan Deferment - How Did They Know?

    From what I have been told, some schools are part of a "clearinghouse" that automatically submits your information to lenders. The same thing happened to me during my pre-reqs, but then when I started nursing school I was told that I had to fill out...
  19. University of Oklahoma-Accelerated BSN Program

    I looked on the OUHSC college of nursing curriculum list and you're right, on there it says that your cohort would only be taking three over the summer but ours would be four. The OUnursing.com one says something completely different. Oh well.... W...
  20. University of Oklahoma-Accelerated BSN Program

    For those of you further along in the program... when do you think we will get our summer schedules? Is it true that some of you didn't even have your spring schedules until the day before classes began?
  21. University of Oklahoma-Accelerated BSN Program

    Which class did you hear that we won't be taking? I was under the impression that we had pharm, clinical, acute and chronic, and family focus. I guess it wouldn't surprise me if they changed something though....
  22. Hi everyone, I had been told by my school that the CA NCLEX cannot be taken before your degree is posted. It is a problem for us because we finish two months before our graduation date and would then have to wait to get our date from there. Someone ...
  23. University of Oklahoma-Accelerated BSN Program

    Hey everyone, For all of you further along in the program, I was wondering for the exams that are proctored do we find out our grade when we submit them like the quizzes, or are they posted at a later date? Just curious! Thanks!
  24. University of Oklahoma-Accelerated BSN Program

    I never got that with my stuff.. I guess I'll have to call them.
  25. University of Oklahoma-Accelerated BSN Program
