of course i am completely out of it already....what's this about an admissions checklist?

awesome i am joining! also got my bill on solar in addition to the schedule in the mail yikes, not so excited about that! oh well, it had to come eventually! are you guys going to work doing the program at all?? i was told it's basically impossible...kinda looking forward to quitting my job, i must admit

Agreed...I do think the program is going to be crazy and time-consuming as all hell, but the fact that it is accelerated doesn't mean that they're cutting out any of the info that a two year program includes (as far as i know). it's the same education, just in a shortened period of time...which is good for a person like me who is younger, with less responsibilities, who can do it without needing to work at the same time and has no kids...basically i have the free time to devote entirely to it, so that's why i think it's a good option for me. finally got the letter in the mail about signing up for classes...so excited!!

bsnurse23: Thank you SOOO much!! i just found your answers (hadn't checked the site in a while) and I cannot say thank you enough for all that info! i've been wondering and wondering and now i finally have an idea of what the program is going to be like. such a relief..i was starting to get scared i was going to be in class from like 5 AM to 11 PM or something...it sounds like a lot of work but there's so much to learn and i can't wait to get started! thanks for the math tip, that is my toughest subject so i think i will get the book ahead of time as you recommended. good luck and THANK YOU :-)

why do i get the feeling it's being kept a mystery on purpose...like the schedule is so ridiculously grueling that if anybody knew about it beforehand they know they wouldn't even have any applicants! let's hope that's just my paranoia talking :-) guess we'll be in the dark until june...

Hey everyone! I'm going into the SBU one year accelerated program..so excited but scared too! I think i'm mostly scared because i dont quite know how the program is structured. Lectures, clinicals, labs? In what order? Alternating one with the other...? How quickly does it move? Are the clinicals done at Stony Brook Hospital, or do they place you in other hospitals? What are the tests like? I wish orientation was sooner than June so I could get this info! Anyone here been through the program already and knows these answers, please let me know! Or anyone who is going in in May and is better informed than I am, please enlighten me! Thanks :wink2:
