Hi guys! I was scheduled for tomorrow, but decided to just take it today. I stopped at 130-140 can't remember anymore, for 3 hrs. I went home did the pvt trick and good pop up! I can't believe it because this is my 2nd time, and got the ccard page on my first attempt. Pvt is the only thing keeping me sane while waiting for the official results.

Hi! this will be my 2nd time, and i only did kaplan before ( complete course). I am now using la charity, saunders, kaplan strategies, little bit of exam cram. I feel i am more confident now. i study everyday for 5 hours only, since I have a baby. I hope we all pass...

HI! can i join this group? I will be taking my exam on Sept. 2.

Hi! I just found out 2 days ago that I am pregnant, apparently it's already 8 weeks. I am currently in my 2nd semester, and was told my estimated due date will be at the end of september, which will be the middle of my 3rd semester. My pregnancy wasn't planned at all, and I was shocked the most part because I gave up on trying to conceive a baby naturally. I am 29 and this is my 2nd child, and I couldn't be happier with this blessing. However, scary as it may be as I get bigger, I am determined to graduate with the rest of my class this May 2010. That is of course I need my friends and families support as I go through it. I think if you really are determined to graduate, while having the baby at the same time, it will be possible..but a lot of hard work. Honestly, I am really scared, but I know I can do it. Good luck!

hello to all! Please help me with my case study. Here is the scenario: A patient has injured his hand at work, went to the ED with a co-worker. You examine his left hand and find a piece of a drill bit sticking out of the skin between the third and 4th knuckles. there is another puncture site about an inch below and toward the center of the hand. Bleeding is minimal. Pt is 41 years old, no significant medical history, and NKDA. His last tetorifice booster was 3 years ago. he is able to flex and extend the distal joints but not the proximal joints of the third and fourth fingers. provide the initial care for the pt's injury. 1. you examine pt. hand. what should you include in your initial assessment? and why? 2. you notice pt's wedding band and promptly ask him to remove it. why is this important? 3. pt ask you why he can't just pull the bit out and go home. how should you respond to his question. THESE ARE THE 3 QUESTIONS THAT I REALLY NEED HELP ON..THANKS!

congratulations!! It seems that everyone who received the in state/out state tuition was selected for the scholarship. I did not get any email from them, so I guess pretty much i'm out in the running. I got an email today from M. Carrera, and she said that she have all the "list" of everyone who got selected. I wasn't in that list; however, she said i'm chosen as one of the alternates. The thing is: if it comes, then i'll be thankful for sure!. In my case, I think it's time for me to move on, and concentrate on my classes. Good luck to everyone!! Again, congratulations to all the awardees..

I actually emailed the lady M. Carrera. I asked her about my status, and she told me that I wasn't in her list. So i'm like..BUMMER!! On the other hand, still keeping my hopes up, maybe, there could be other "case analyst" whose in charge of other students. Well you know...it's not October yet..so I'm still HOPING!! hehe!

congratulations to everyone who got the scholarship..especially to Hillarypeace.. I did not get the email..yet :heartbeat:heartbeat to those of you who got it..did all of you got an email way back asking if the tuition is out of state/in state? thanks! good luck..

congratulations

mail came today..and...nope..nothing yet! hopefully it's on the way for me. :heartbeat

yup.. That's true Hill. I really hope we get it..

wow! Congratulations to simplelife4me! It's nice to know that decisions are on its way. Good luck to everyone..

I am going for ADN, and 0 EFC. Last time I checked, I don't have the nursing curriculum link. still waiting for an update...

hillary, were you still able to modify your registration profile? thanks karen bianca (MSMC:wink2:)

hi everyone! my status disappeared too. still keeping my fingers crossed :zzzzz

Mine says, under review too.

I called them today, and the representative said that they were just updating everyone's status, and it basically says the same thing for everyone. She checked the date when they received my supplemental documents, for me to fell better, and she told me they have received it on May 15. I guess there's nothing to worry about it.We'll just wait..wait..wait.. :nuke::nuke:

You made our day!! hehe! I am really getting worried here. Now I can go ahead and focus on studying for my finals tomorrow. Thanks for the update everyone

I don't think they have any preference with an associate or b.s. I am in an associate program, and I will be starting my nursing classes next month. The scholarship would really help me out, because my school tuition is so high. The waiting list for ADN here in Los Angeles is really long, and I think it's about 2 years, so I just went ahead and applied to a private school.

hi.. you know what, I am planning to call them tomorrow. I always call them once a week before..seriously..to the point where I convinced myself that they do have all my documents..haha! It's just so strange that the notice about the deadline to submit all documents is in the status page. I'm sure there's an explanation to that..I even have my finals tomorrow, and here I am worrying about my status with HRSA. Well let's just hope for the best.

I hope that's not what it means. I keep calling them if they have received all my documents, and all the representatives that I talked to said they did or everything's complete. oh well i'll just wait and see..

hi! I checked my status today, and from " received no review" it became "ONLINE APPLICATION STATUS NOTICE: Failure to submit the application AND the supplemental documentation will result in a denial of your application. All supplemental documents must be postmarked by June 06, 2008 ." wasn't that the notice from the supplemental documents? i tried to call them about it, but their office is closed so i'll just try again tomorrow. Has anyone gotten the same message as mine? Thanks! kai
