Anyone else applying for FSU's accelerated BSN program starting Spring 2010?

no a B should't prevent you from getting into the program! especially if it's patho - that's a hard class!! good luck to you!

sorry about the PM thing by the way! i forget about that for the newbies!

just FYI: most of my books are promised to the one or two of you I've emailed back... yes I'll see all the other 'Accelerators' tonight and will pass the word on books - I'll let ya'll know if some of them will sell them to ya'll (instead of taking ...

hey ya'll - i have some books (not all but most) and uniform stuff if you're interested... just pm me if so and i can send a list of what i have!

Just curious - which programs are ya'll in for FNP that are mostly on-line? I'm trying to find something like this... Thanks!

Okay so I am just confused about where to do my 6-week internship at the end of my program... I want to become a nurse practitioner but not really sure which area yet. My original thought was family practice, but after my rotations, I discovered I l...

Hey, Don't stress yet - it shouldn't be too hard to find a patho class for fall! Like PBteach said, we had people who took it online (Kenyon College, Ohio)... So look into that! Patho is a requirement for the program - it is a prereq for many of t...

hi ya'll! if you havent seen us posting much, its because the program keeps us EXTREMELY busy. for real! i have pretty much no free time, and when i do, i'm spending it with my hubby! don't plan on making any trips home or big plans unless you hav...

Hope ya'll had a great Christmas! I've been crazy busy until now but now I will finally have a week to relax before we start. I'm kinda nervous LOL. Our books are finally in I hear; I'm going to get them from Bills b/c my office gave me a nice gi...

are ya'll buying the 'spring box' of books for the program? or are ya'll ordering your books from somewhere else? just curious... i was going to wait for the box, but it won't be available until start of school...

just fyi: the con told me that there were some minor changes to the textbook list, so hold off on purchasing books for a couple more days. they will send us an email with the course syllabi and textbook information... i looked at all the books we h...

orientation wasn't bad... actually pretty informative & they stuck to the schedule. CON said our orientation will probably be Tues, Jan 5th (the day before classes start) from 1-5pm. we should be getting more info on it soon. They also said t...

Wishingonastar85 - like pbteach said, I think you are probably good with your blackberry... The things you have to upload are for the background check. You can either fax your documents in (mostly attachments in one of our CON emails) or scan and u...

yeah we have to go to an all day orientation next friday (8-5 i think)... unless you attended one already a previous semester? i can't remember if i'd gotten an email about it or what, but go to: http://nsfp.fsu.edu/register.html and you can regi...

My orientation is Nov 20 too - it was the only day I could register for, so maybe it is the one for 'seniors' or 'transfers'. I got an email about financial aid from the college of nursing and responded - did you get it? It gave a website to go to ...

I have no clue what the stats were for people who applied/got accepted. pbteach might be able to tell you more... I'm sure it's pretty competitive though

Patho is great - a lot of material to read & study, but interesting stuff. The instructor I have is EXCELLENT - i highly recommend taking her if you can. I only took the HESI once. I think I read somewhere that you have to wait 6 months to take ...

I was just reading about this yesterday... blood is one of the only 'fears' that people pass out with - b/c your blood pressure rises (like all other fears) and then falls (unlike other fears). This blood pressure falling is what gets people. I re...

Thank you PetroNole! I actually responded to your Q on another thread, so hopefully you'll see that... FSU seems like a great nursing school so far, by the way - I am in one of the classes now and the teachers are amazing - very supportive and want...

Hmmm... The FSU testing center actually has a study guide (which I didn't know about until the day of the test!) - one girl I know relied totally on that for her studies. I studied a couple of books that I got off amazon for real cheap: Nursing Sch...

Girl I feel for you. I was in South Mississippi when Katrina happened. A lot of families had to move in with relatives short-term and then relocate. It took a while to rebuild the coast and there's still some places that haven't been rebuilt. Peo...

hey girl - you have to have 15 posts before you can send a private message (PM), but you can receive them so I'm gonna send you one now!! I have an itouch my mom gave me a couple months ago as an early Christmas gift (she got an iphone and didnt nee...

we saw the scores directly after, too, but could not print them. i took the test on a friday and was able to pull up the scores on-line the next tuesday or wednesday, so it took a few days...

I just got my acceptance letter in the mail... I haven't looked at it (boyfriend called to tell me) but he said it has the Spring schedule and other info in there... Can't wait to look over it!!
