  1. Kaiser New Grad 2011

    I just got a phone call from the nurse recruiter regarding a group interview for their OR Training Program! I don't even think I applied, but somehow I'm on the list. I have my panel interview next...
  2. I see that no one responded, and unfortunately I'm in the same boat. Though I only graduated 2 months ago (is that all?), I am so over having to write an essay. I understand that they have a ton of...
  3. Mount St. Mary's ABSN 2011 applicants

    The ethics question was somewhere along the lines like, "Tell me about an ethical situation you were faced with and how you handled it." It'll be up to you how to answer it. I used to work for some...

    Anyone get calls yet this morning, or do you think the next round will be while we're taking the turkey out of the
  5. March 2012 CHLA RN Residency Program

    Right now? And me in mid-zombie dress. OK, all focus to the phones! All the best my fellow RNs. For those who are getting phone calls, are they local (as in CA)? Any hint on order? Can you tell I'm...
  6. Mount St. Mary's ABSN 2011 applicants

    Sounds like you are a strong applicant and that your micro grade won't weigh as heavily as it did with my application. As long as you are finished with class by the time classes start in August (last...
  7. Airborne vs. Droplet Precautions

    Can someone explain the "UV" in airborne precautions. Is that we treat with UV rays, a type of mask?

    Did you talk to anyone after not getting accepted into the program initially to see how you can improve your application this time
  10. Mount St. Mary's ABSN 2011 applicants

    @Nat - I completely concur with BNice's assessment of how many hours and the level of commitment necessary in order to do well in the program. There were many nights where I would be up until 2am and...
  11. UCLA New Grad Residency Program 2012

    OK, weird. I received an email this afternoon asking me to complete the assessment, as I guess the one I completed in April isn't the same thing. However, now I got another email saying thanking me...
  12. MSMC ABSN Summer 2012

    You do have to finish your pre-reqs before the program starts. If you are in the middle of a class, they won't count it. I didn't get accepted on my first go around because when I went for the...
  13. MSMC ABSN Summer 2012

    I wish I could say it was smooth sailing and the best experience of my life. Honestly, it is hard and you will say to yourself why did you do this to yourself on more than one occasion. However, as...
  14. UCLA New Grad Residency Program 2012

    The assessment basically asks you the same question multiple times to see how you react to different situations. They want to get a feel for how happy you are, how confident you feel and your...

  17. March 2012 CHLA RN Residency Program

    No interview because I applied too early. I was still in school and there was no way I would have gotten my license before the start of the program. There had been a rumor that it would start in...
  18. Mount St. Mary's ABSN 2011 applicants

    Well their information is wrong or maybe does not include the latest information. And as yukikon stated, the BSN rate combines ABSN and Traditional BSN program
  19. Mount St. Mary's ABSN 2011 applicants

    The 2011 May ABSN had a 100% pass rate, same with the previous 2010 August ABSN cohort. My class is just starting to take beginning next

  22. MSMC ABSN Summer 2012

    I wanted to throw my hat into this thread as a recent grad from the MSMC ABSN Program. I had a terrible GPA from my first BA, but did very well in my pre-reqs, which is what I am thinking got me...
  23. March 2012 CHLA RN Residency Program

    I'm still waiting for an updated letter from one of my preceptors from when I did my rotation at CHLA during nursing school. Does anyone know if it matters if we turn in the packet early if it makes...
  24. USC new grad program 2012
