    Fall and Winter semesters are 16 weeks long. Each nursing class, like you said, is 8 weeks, so there are 2 nursing classes per semester. Summer is normally 12 weeks, so summer classes would be 6...

    First semester cost about 1300ish, which included pharm and math. So the other semesters will be less, plus the first summer you only take 1 nursing class/clinical, so it will be half of what the...

    Yeah thats how it was when I applied, but they've never extended the deadline before. It could be different this time, who knows. I don't even think BC knows,

    The facebook page just posted this information 25 minutes ago, so I am guessing its new info. Even the Advisement blog had a post earlier today and now the post is not there (Just has the title, but...

    From BC's facebook page: So it looks like they are requiring the HESI, but that the scores don't

    Don't worry about the term year that's posted on your limited access application. Mine says 20082 for the term when I actually applied for the 20101 term (August 2009). For whatever reason, they...

    It says the same "Student Objective record does not exist" for me, too and I am IN the program, lol. I wouldn't worry. Just check with them in a day or so if it still says the same thing. I think...

    They haven't told us anything about the HESI yet. I guess its still too early for us, though. I do have friends starting Ortho/neuro when you do, so maybe I'll ask them what they

    Glamorous- I'm not sure what central does, but North does NOT take exams on the computer. At least not now we don't. Haven't heard of anything in the works, but I guess you never

    No I am a semester behind you. I started last August and I graduate next May. Right now I am in psych until the end of June and then I have the rest of the summer off. Then it's OB and then...

    There's no real book that is exactly like the questions she asks, but I used Test Success and Fundamentals Success books and they helped a lot. I eventually got the Saunder's NCLEX book, but that...

    GabbsRN replied to NMG86's topic in Florida Nursing

    When was that? Perhaps they changed they way they do the applications now. Who knows. I know its strange that they do it this way, but don't worry. You'll get your "nursing" major back, and with...

    GabbsRN replied to NMG86's topic in Florida Nursing

    They change the degrees when they enter the applications in. I'm not sure why you can't be a nursing major when they do it, but for some reason, they said it had something to do with financial aid,...

    GabbsRN replied to NMG86's topic in Florida Nursing

    Yeah, I didn't have a life either during the first semester, but I have a lot more time now. I watch TV (a lot, lol), I hang out with my family and kids. But I do study and I have to manage my time....

    If you deferred your seat, you're pretty much in. I know they say they have to see if there's enough seats or whatnot, but you are "in" you just deferred your seat to another semester. When I...

    GabbsRN replied to NMG86's topic in Florida Nursing

    NMG86 is correct. You choose the campus you want to attend the day you register for your classes. So when the time comes, I would suggest you register as soon as its open to ensure you get the...

    Well, first, I divided up the reading and read ahead for each topic. So let's say for Friday's lecture there were 200 pages of reading, i would divide the pages by the number of days and I would read...

    I applied for and got in Aug 2009. They didn't tell us the GPA's but they accepted students with 9-10 pts and put people with 8 pts on as alternates, which was only about 30 students. They ended up...
