No I don't have family there, I just love the cold and snow. You don't get alot of that here. I hear the cost of living is quite higher there, that is a little bit of a down side. Yeah from what I hear you are tested over dosage calculation. They have use henkles med math for the last few years but they told me, when I called, that they no longer use the book that they would send out what we needed.

I will take me about an hour to get there. I am wanting to move up north when I am through school how did you like it there? I will let you know when I recieve the packet. I wish it would hurry up. There is math in it that we will be tested over in the first weekthey told me.

yeah, I got that packet but they said they would be sending another one out to us that has things we need for class in it but I have not recieved it. I am from Athens tn. I wish my drive was going to be as short as yours but it will be worth every mile of it.

I am attending Blount this fall also, but I have not recieved a packet of things to do I am still waiting on that. We will be off for nursing school in the summer so you can take some pre reqs then. I you from knox or maryville?

OK, thank you I sent mine in on monday, so if I hear something first I will let you know

No, I don't have any experience yet. This is something I have wanted to do for a long time and never had the money to do. I am drawing out my 401k to pay my bills as I go through school. I just can't wait to get started.

Etowah is south of Maryville on hwy 411 about 45 to 50 miles. Its a small town. Have you sent in your conformation letter yet? I think that is when we will find out how the classes are set up. You will not have to take nurs115 because you are an LPN right?

The bridge is really just taking pre-reqs again but for your BSN. I think it consist of one more math such as statistics, 2 history courses, English 310, and a fine art, such as music. After that the way I understand it, the rest of the BSN program is all nursing course should only take two semesters, maybe three depending on how many hours you can take and work at the same time. This is listed on LMU's web site under the Facts Sheet under the nursing portion. I will also be traveling 45 min to an hour I live in Etowah TN.

I have all pre-reqs done except micro and the lincoln life and information literacy. I will be taking the bridge classes along with the nursing courses cause I will be getting my BSN. How far is crossville away from the site? I have not heard anything about how the classes are set up. I would like to know to.

Hello TRL 46, I am starting at the Alcoa site this fall I just wish it was tomorrow. I ready to get this show on the road.:chuckle

Hey ther mchapp I got my letter sat. 21 march and I have gotten in. How about you.

I will definitly let you know. That time can't come soon enough. I go to the mail box everyday with anticipation with let down thus far. Not much longer now. All I need is micro also but I am going to take it next summer. Hopfully that will be between my first and second year of nusing school. Let me know what you think of the class there and how tough it is taking it just over the summer cause I would like to take it there myself. Thanks a million

Yeah me too. It looks like, on here anyway, that they found out last year on March 12. So thats what I am hoping for. I put app. in about 3 months ago and can't remeber where my first choice was St. Mary's or Blount, but which ever I just hope I get in. How many pre-reqs you have done?

Thanks dee78. When do you here from them where or not you get in?

You can try to find flash card made by Frank Netter M.D.. They helped me tons. They have really bright colors so it is easy to distinguish the different bones. It is still no easy task. Study study study.
