Thanks, Thangbom. That's what I was thinking. They told me to bring proof of my third Hep B shot to orientation, but I'll probably stop by with it when I get it done. I'll take my blue card with me...

I finally got my blue card last week...are we supposed to turn it in or just hang on to it just in case? Thangbom, I saw that you posted on the other thread that you got yours, do you know what we're...

Thanks, cschoppe! It's really helpful to hear from someone in the program. There are always people who are willing to help and answer questions but the difference is you have to seek them out and...

I feel for you! I was feeling that same way when I was applying, so I kind of get it. I thought that might have been you that just joined the FB group, so I thought maybe you made a decision. Is...
Thank you! My husband and I are both due for upgrades this summer and I was trying to decide whether it would be worth it to get a smartphone or just use the money for a PDA/itouch. I was leaning...

Forgot to say, I haven't heard anything about whether or not the interim director at Cyfair will become the permanent one. I've found her to be nice and very helpful, despite being very busy though,...

I really prefer to go through CyFair's program but I also don't want to be miserable for the next 2 years. I want to be prepared and want to be challenged but don't want to be bullied in the...

bugalove- I haven't seen anything about Cyfair's cutoff yet, but I think Kingwood and Cyfair were both around 11.4 for Spring 2010 entry. I was trying to shoot for at least an 11.5 or 11.6, just to...

I'm pretty far from Tomball too, but I really didn't care for the online format because I felt like I got so little from it. For me personally, it's worth it to make the drive. Since it's a hybrid I...
If any of y'all are still around, can you tell me what the restrictions are with smartphones? I called and was told that it's up to the instructors and sites, so I'm wondering if you guys have, or...

EmBeMap- Thanks for the recommendation. I've been looking at the Constellation package on Skyscape, Unbound Medicine, and epocrates, so hearing from people who are using it helps. Have you heard...

I just called to ask about the smartphones/PDA and spoke to Kathy, who checked with the director. There is no specific policy at this point in time, it is completely left up to the instructor as well...

Has anyone heard whether or not we're allowed to use smartphones? My husband and I have decided to jump on the bandwagon and upgrade our basic phone. I'd like to get one that I can download some of...

I've already got my rolling bag. I took A&P I, SOCI, and PSYC back to back last Spring and didn't have time to go to my car in between, so I sucked it up and got the dorky rolling bag. And my...

I was told the same thing Thangbom. And now we just wait...again. Anyone else tired of the waiting yet? This semester has just seemed to drag on and on with all of this waiting. I know that once...

I've turned everything in except my last Hep B shot, and she said to just bring that to orientation. I'll probably drop it by before anyway, just in case. I'm so ready for orientation, too. I feel...
lilag02 replied to StephanieNicole's topic in Texas Nursing
Me too, me too! July seems so far off, but I guess if I can wait two years, I can wait a couple of months. I'm hoping that getting ready for finals and then summer school will speed the wait up a...

I just looked at the catalog for the RNSG classes, and then looked at the fall course schedule that is online to get the schedule that I posted. I have no idea how correct it is, but it sounds about...

Hey Thangbom- I could swear that my letter says that orientation is July 14th. Off to find it, but if anyone else could double check too that would be great. ETA- As far as a blue card...I was told...
