I took math 093, then 095, 096 in concurrent semesters. Plus a music class to remain full time for financial aid. Not easy but can be done. Good luck!

The med Calc test for 1st semester students is 90% you can only miss one problem out of 10, or out of 20. The only difference is the number of problems you have each semester, they increase in number and difficulty. You can still only miss one problem. 90% or 97% doesn't matter. Only allowed to miss one problem. The prep class is available to accepted RN students. Summer for fall program and Christmas break for the spring time. Good luck all!

The classes that are nursing program-specific are as follows: Biology 189 A & P 223 English 101 Psychology 101 Math 100B or (college level algebra 124) These are for College of southern Nevada I do not know about NSC:)

I am sorry you didn't get in, you probably will the next time around. I know what its like to want something so badly and not get it. You guys are all so cute and excited about this, very positive attitudes and all- no matter what-- it is very sweet.

Well, sounds like they got smart to that aspect. Sorry. I am having a rough time myself...

I took the pharmacology online and I didn't think it was too bad- but I love pharmacology! I loved my teacher though too and in this program, the teacher you get matters. Since names cannot be posted, I recommend you come to the Charleston campus before your new student orientation and talk to other current 1st semester students. Pharmacology is the only class you get to register for that is not in the "lottery" assignment, and you are even told NOT to register for it until you get the other classes, but why wait and register last for Pharm? Makes no sense... Also, if I could have avoided Nursing 101 instructors in an online course- which they did not offer when I went through, I would have done so!:)

Nevada state college is a university call them or go to their website they have to disclose the information.

Nevada State University

CSN does not require a chemistry class of any kind...

There are RN refresher courses at CSN. They cost about $350?? and I think they run for the semester or at least several weeks. Go to csn.edu and look in the PDF catalog in nursing- its called RN refresher. Don't give up!

Actually they just lost their accreditation (sp) this year due to the failure rate on the NCLEX. Idk what that means per say, maybe they can only work here now...

You are probably calculating your GPA incorrectly and the point requirement has probably gone up from 27 points. The alternates that had 26 or 27- maybe they have medical experience? Do you? SO many reasons, you should go in and talk to the LE office lady, she is super nice. Always keep your options open! Check out Nevada State University.

I got in as an alternate though I do not know how it works. Go to orientation, many, many alternates do get in~

Are you aware of the demand of the biology classes alone? From the posts I have just read, nobody is even close to realistic. YES Nevada State is EASIER! It is not as hard, people actually get A's from that school in a 6 or 8 week accelerated course. People that posted that they are not aware of it being easier, perhaps the subject was more interesting? or, they had a good instructor? Why do they not want to admit they took the easier A road? Who knows. They did. NSC doesn't compare to the workload or demand of CSN. Does that make it less? Nope I don't think so. Is this possible at CSN with the workload that other students are suggesting? Nope. Simple as that. Nope. No way, not if you expect to get good grades. And by good grades I mean pre requisites: Biol 189 and A&P 223-- no less than B Psychology, Math, and English-- an A Cumulative GPA for these 5 classes goal? 3.25-3.50- minimum! Nothing less than that for the points. The general education classes must be done concurrently A&P 224 = 10points Micro Biol = 5 points Communications = 5 points Sociology and History or Poly Sci = 1 point each Gen Ed total = 22 points Current Medical certification = 1 point Verified current experience = 1 point Teas exam score = up to 6 points I am in the last semester at CSN nursing program and if I could do it all over again with out financial concern? I would go to NSC. Simple. Keep your options open- CSN- they chew you up and spit out 50% of all entered students in the first semester alone. Why am I telling you this? I wish someone had told me...

You are just so lucky I like you so much! lol! I was done anyways. You always have my best interest at heart! You ready for exams next week? Me neither!
