    RADIATION_RN replied to GeekGirl's topic in Texas Nursing

    I am bringing my own stethoscope to class. I have a Littman Master Classic II which I have used for years and I love it! The doctor I work for recommended it and he told me his got him through medical...

  2. Taking the Hesi and Freaking out!!!!

    RADIATION_RN replied to MsAshley's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    WOW! I am reading all these posts and everyone's experience is so different. I find it weird that you can even take the HESI without taking A&P. My school is very strict and you cannot even...

  3. The wait for your acceptance into nursing school

    RADIATION_RN replied to jessymarie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I submitted my application right after I took my HESI on December 18th! We don't find out until May! Ughhhh! Those with a certain ranking get a petition to go ahead and register for a Nursing Skills...

    RADIATION_RN replied to GeekGirl's topic in Texas Nursing

    My friend took Nusring Skills last semester and she said they did have written exams. They are made like NCLEX style questions where you can have more than one right answer. You also have clinical...

    RADIATION_RN replied to GeekGirl's topic in Texas Nursing

    Nicolet - my reasons for doing the CNA through ACC was just a personal goal I wanted to do for myself. I just wanted an official certification behind my name. I have over 10 years of experience in...

    RADIATION_RN replied to GeekGirl's topic in Texas Nursing

    Purkinje, Yes, Greek Girl got her email last night! She text me and she signed up for the hybrid class that I did also. Her and I met on here first and it was coincidental that we both went through...

  14. Austin Community College (ACC) - Fall 2010 Hopefuls

    RADIATION_RN replied to GeekGirl's topic in Texas Nursing

    I see what you're saying but I honestly don't think the Nursing Skills counts towards any ranking formula. It wouldn't be fair for them to multiple their GPAs x 11 instead of the normal x 10 for...

  15. Austin Community College (ACC) - Fall 2010 Hopefuls

    RADIATION_RN replied to GeekGirl's topic in Texas Nursing

    Purkinje, you are right. It did start off at like 45 or 46 then when the second round of petitions went out it went way up to 51 or 52. I don't think the Nursing Skills will add in to our scores for...

    RADIATION_RN replied to GeekGirl's topic in Texas Nursing

    I sent them an email too! I am crossing my fingers I will be able to get the online class!! I got an "Out of Office" reply back from my email. Haha! I wouldn't set your minds on 47 being the lowest...

  19. Austin Community College (ACC) - Fall 2010 Hopefuls

    RADIATION_RN replied to GeekGirl's topic in Texas Nursing

    Purkinje - I am with ya in the fact that I am so hopeful they will release 1105 petitions before the end of the year. But since the campus is now officially closed that hope is dwindling. I do keep...

    RADIATION_RN replied to GeekGirl's topic in Texas Nursing

    Yay!!! Finally our own thread! It has been a long road to be able to say "I have submitted my application and am just waiting for acceptance"! Took my HESI Friday and submitted my app too! I am hoping...

    RADIATION_RN replied to prowlingMA's topic in Oncology

    As long as they have good insurance, there will always be doctors willing to treat. I see this everyday as I work in a radiation therapy clinic and some of the patients we see are so sad. They are so...

    RADIATION_RN replied to CA_to_austin's topic in Texas Nursing

    Great!! I really want the hybrid too. I hear through the grapevine that in Fall 2010, hopefully when I start, they are using the Round Rock campus as part of the online program. Hopefully they will...

  23. what is the HESI? Is this required?

    RADIATION_RN replied to eyoliver's topic in Texas Nursing

    HESI is only required by some schools. For my school, Austin Community College, prospective RN students have to take the HESI A2 which is the entrance exam. For my program the only parts we had to...

    RADIATION_RN replied to CA_to_austin's topic in Texas Nursing
