I am a new grad RN that recently received a job offer in the OR at a really awesome magnet hospital in Durham North Carolina. Yes, that one! The hours are 6:45 AM to 5:15 PM. I was unable to except the position because my husband works from 6 AM to 2...

It's a a diploma Nusing program. Even if you have all prerequisites you still have to take 18 credit hours with the school. When taking prerequisites you can do online and evenings on campus for Nursing I'm not sure because I haven't made it that far...

Hey!! I got the background check back 1st- it took about 2 days, but I live right here is Durham so thye didn't have to mail it to far. Getting all of my transcripts in took the longest because one of my schools really dropped the ball. After everyth...

Congrats!!!! I'm so excited for us!!!

Hey! I'm starting my pre-reqs in June as well. I'm super excited but anxious as well!!! Good Luck!!

Thanks!

I'm in!!!!!! I just received my acceptance letter today!!!!

Yayy!! Congrats!!

Hey...Any word yet from Watts yet? I'm still waiting for the yay or nay myself.

Hey Wyneeka, What did you decide? I actually applied a few weeks ago and I'm waiting to hear back from them.

I wish you the best of luck. I also applied this semester and I'm waiting for the background check results.

Thanks...I needed that. This is starting to get frustrating

Looking at the breakdown of my test scores...I did great on my verbal, and non verbal but I didnt do so well in math. Was there anyone that just skipped the math problems and still did well? Just curious.

Hopefully I can but there is a lot of non sense that you have to go thru in order to get in the Nursing portion. For example, lets say I have 30 points after I finish my pre reqs. If you have 31 points, then you knock me out and I have to try again n...

I am pre nursing at Durham Tech

NCphoenix.....:nurse:Are you currently in the Durham Tech ADN program. how is it? I'm still pre-nursing, I have to finish Patho and take my CNA courses. Just wanted to see what you think about the program.

Ok.....so I got my results back yesterday and I got a 76 and a 32. So I have to retake one part again (Academic Aptitude). The math part was really sucky for me I really don't want to pay and take it again. Maybe I'll just stay in the school I'm alre...

I work in Apex and I give you sooo much respect for being able to tolerate such a small town. Then again, I'm originally from NJ so I don't I'll ever get used to this "southern setting". Maybe I should have relocated to Charlotte....LOL

I guess your right. It's just that there is so much competition the smallest thing could hurt you I would imagine; but I'm still thinking POSITIVE!

Well Jeep, lets hope so!

Thanks Red! Monday will be exactly 2 weeks so I'm counting down. The only part I'm nervous about is my background check because I got a DWI in 2006 I hope it doesn't hurt my chances. They could decide that I'm to irresponsible and deny me. I'm still ...

Thanks LadyL! They should just give you the results the same day instead of putting you through the agony of waiting.

Hi All, I just took my test on April 4th. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. I actually feel pretty good about it. I'm super anxious waiting to hear the results. They say it will be 2 weeks, but has anyone gotten back their results so...

Hello All, I am taking the entrance exam for Watts in January. I am studying the book that they suggested right now. I am curious to know, are we allowed to use calculators for the test?
