tmoney... thanks for your thoughts! I actually had a bad experience just applying to Chabot, as I found them disorganized and not enthusiastic about their own program. I was put off by them, but I knew I just needed to apply EVERYWHERE, including t...

Yeah, really! It IS great to not feel alone! Our two years will likely fly by, but for now, I can't help but feel excited, anxious, scared, and motivated all at the same time! Well, kudos to you again in Illinois! I'm in the SF bay area of Califo...
Hi all, I just received a congratulatory email yesterday from Ohlone College saying that I was between 1 and 20 on their lottery list!!! It is so exciting and nearly a miracle that this happened if you ask me. Any one else out there who got in? I'...

YEAY!!! Good for you! Congrats!! :bdyhdclp: It's really fun to have others on here that share the same excitement for entering a nursing program!!! Friends and family just don't know what it feels like first hand... haha! I just found out yesterd...
Hey all! I was wanting to throw this out there to gather any sentiments on the nursing programs at Ohlone College and Chabot College in the Bay Area. Finally, I am at a point at which I can start applying to schools (yeay!), and I have both of thes...

You can do it! If this is something you've been thinking about for a while, then go for it! Don't let anyone's words discourage you from going back to school. But if you're even a bit doubtful about nursing, talk to some actual nurses if you can, ...

:tku: That's super helpful, and discouraging at the same time. = ( I have pretty much all my prereq's done after this semester, and I already have a BS degree under my belt. Sadly, a few State Universities won't take me back because they're impact...

Hi! I'm thinking about moving to SD and applying to that SDCC, but I just started doing some research and it seems that its pretty tough getting into a nursing school in SD just like it is up north in the Bay Area. I read on SDCC's website that the...

I've heard that calculators are not used for the TEAS, at least here in the Bay Area, northern CA. Does anyone who has taken the TEAS have any input on whether or not the ATI practice materials are worth their purchase price?? I am hoping to take m...

I took Micro last summer at my CC, and it was honestly really intense squeezing all that material into 6 weeks. I wasn't working, nor was I taking other courses, so I was fortunate to have the time to study, eat, study, sleep, go to class, and do it...

Hey all! I am looking to possibly apply to SM's ABSN whenever I get patho and pharm done (you really have to finish these prereqs before applying, right?). I'd like to get them done this coming summer, but is it a crazy expectation to do both at on...

Just peepin' in... StarBelly, again, I'm not sure where you're at, but to add to the bay area list, Ohlone College offers a Micro class during the summer. I took it last year and looooved it. It was pretty intense, but the teacher I took (Finney) w...
