  6. Will my tattoos hold me back?

    jennafezz replied to MLutiker's topic in General Students

    Agreed :) I'm in the Bay Area and I've seen plenty of nurses, techs, doctors, etc with large visible tattoos (especially in Oakland/SF/Berkeley). It doesn't seem to be a big deal at all around

  7. Cover Letter HELP!!!!

    jennafezz replied to RNin's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    jennafezz replied to EllTee2B's topic in California Nursing

    I worked 40 hrs/wk most of the first year and am down to about 28 in the 2nd year, working is good if you are in a hospital or something that will help you get a job after graduation. If you don't...

  10. CSUEB or SJSU

    jennafezz replied to 1waitingpatiently's topic in California Nursing

    I'm at Concord, so I wouldn't really be a help to you, but I like most of my instructors and I have enjoyed every clinical site. In particular, I think it is awesome to have an OB rotation at Alta...

  11. CSUEB or SJSU

    jennafezz replied to 1waitingpatiently's topic in California Nursing

    I'm in CSUEB's program and I am happy with it. Where do you live? School will be easier the closer you live to it. If they are equal in your mind, go to the one closer to you. SJSU also takes longer...

  13. Fall 2010 Applicants.. How's it going?

    jennafezz posted a topic in California Nursing

    I'm finding it hard to wait until April for acceptance results and I was wondering if anyone is feeling the same way, so I figured I would start a discussion thread about it. If you applied for Fall...

  14. Cal State East Bay

    jennafezz replied to HopefulNurse90's topic in California Nursing

    This isn't true. The average GPA was 3.6 (as mentioned at last year's orientation), and the GPA is balanced out with the TEAS score and the supplementals. And I'm pretty sure the average TEAS was

    jennafezz replied to Rachelle82's topic in General Students

  17. CSU East Bay Fall 2011 Applicants

    jennafezz replied to MattMa's topic in California Nursing

    What is posted is most likely your schedule, if you can interpret it from mycsueb. They will explain GE to you but it's probably better for you if you get the information ASAP. For example, if you...

  18. CSU East Bay Fall 2011 Applicants

    jennafezz replied to MattMa's topic in California Nursing

  20. CSU East Bay Fall 2011 Applicants

    jennafezz replied to MattMa's topic in California Nursing

    We get syllabi for each class, not the program in general. They change year-to-year probably. You should be able to see yours very soon after

    jennafezz replied to MattMa's topic in California Nursing

    I work 30 hrs a week and it was really easy to do in the first and second quarters (worked 40 hours a lot of the easier weeks), but this quarter it is kind of sucking a lot. I'm still getting A's...
