  1. Johns Hopins Accelerated BSN

    GoalsInTransition replied to GoalsInTransition's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Yeah, I am irrationally worked up about this. Also, I have a birthday next week (the big 3-0), so I am hoping that JHU doesn't ruin the day :-). Good luck,

  2. New CRC here........not so sure I like it......need advice!

    GoalsInTransition replied to Emmjay's topic in Research

    Hi there, I am actually a CRC without a nursing degree (I am applying for ABSM progrmas now), and I can tell you that there are definitely CRC positions with a lot of patient contact. My first CRC...

    Pins and needles? I think I may have moved on to near-constant nausea. Quick- name four common anti-emitics!:-) Best of luck to you- keep us posted!

  4. Columbia ETP 2010

    GoalsInTransition replied to eyeontheprize's topic in New York Nursing

    So, I live in NYC now, but I am not from here, and I can just imagine your impression of the city and the campus! If you live in Manhattan, BTW, you amy just want to take a bus- they are generally...

    I have never heard that, but it could be true. Yuck. I haven't heard anything yet. How about you, Hopeful?

    GoalsInTransition replied to GoalsInTransition's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Yep, that's me on FB. :-) I actually cannot wait to take Patho-- it is insanely interesting to me, and I am way better at learning concepts (disease processes) than clinical skills (catheterizations,...

  7. Johns Hopins Accelerated BSN

    GoalsInTransition replied to GoalsInTransition's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Honestly, JHU is my number one pick-- if I were single. Since my husband and son and I are settled in NYC for now, Columbia is extremely attractive for other reasons. Nevertheless, I have applied to...

    GoalsInTransition replied to GoalsInTransition's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Ha- I am originally from Michigan, so I am accustomed to the snow, just not a big fan. It's lovely for the holidays, but I could do well without the stress of driving through piles of it. Maybe the...

  9. Columbia ETP 2010

    GoalsInTransition replied to eyeontheprize's topic in New York Nursing

    I am hoping to get into JHU or Columbia, but whomever accepts me first will probably get me. I don't like uncertainty, and I really need to plan ahead for my family, and I just need to know where I'll...

  10. Johns Hopins Accelerated BSN

    GoalsInTransition replied to GoalsInTransition's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I'm happy to hear such a positive report. I keep telling my husband we'll be fine if we leave NYC, but he really thinks that no other place has the opportunities we have here. I most love JHU's...

  11. Columbia ETP 2010

    GoalsInTransition replied to eyeontheprize's topic in New York Nursing

    I'm applying to JHU, Pace and NYU in addition to Columbia. As long as I get into one, and emerge with less than 100K on loans, i'll do my best to enjoy the (hectic) ride to

    GoalsInTransition replied to GoalsInTransition's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Thanks, SnoopysAunt! I hope my family can stay together for this whole nursing degree venture, but that is contingent upon my husband getting a good job in the area (he is in finance/wealth...

    GoalsInTransition replied to GoalsInTransition's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I was told that we would be notified by December 15 at the latest. I guess that is not too bad (some of the other programs I applied to won't notify until February). I just need to plan ahead,...

  14. Columbia ETP 2010

    GoalsInTransition replied to eyeontheprize's topic in New York Nursing

    Thanks for the insight. My materials are all in, and now I just have to wait. Johns Hopkins gives early decision notices by December 15, so I don't know if I could wait until February to hear back...

  15. Johns Hopins Accelerated BSN

    GoalsInTransition replied to GoalsInTransition's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Did you hear back? I haven't heard anything, and honestly, I am pretty nervous. I have never been rejected before by a school, so I guess I am not really prepared for the disappointment. Good luck!...

  16. Johns Hopins Accelerated BSN

    GoalsInTransition replied to GoalsInTransition's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Ok, so my application is definitely complete and being considered for early decision. I felt relief at first, but I just read that JHU's overall acceptance rate is 26%-- better than the rate at many...

    GoalsInTransition replied to GoalsInTransition's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Ihaven't spoken to anyone at JHU who is doing the traditional program, since I am only interested in the accelerated programs. I'm living in NYC now, and have also applied to Columbia, but the...

    GoalsInTransition replied to eyeontheprize's topic in New York Nursing

    Hello all, Well, my app. is in, with all materials. Does anyone have any idea when we will starting hearing about admissions decisions? Honestly, I would love to get into Johns Hopkins, but I...

    GoalsInTransition replied to GoalsInTransition's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Hi there, I've sent my application in, but I'd be happy to give you any input, if you can tell me specifically which question/topic/etc. you are having difficulties with. Are you aplying for the...

  21. Pace CDP Spring 2010 and the GRE's

    GoalsInTransition replied to maybesooninny's topic in New York Nursing

    Since you can see your scores without sending them to ANY schools, I would do this if I were you. Just don't select any schools to report your scores to. IF you like your scores, you can always...

    GoalsInTransition replied to GoalsInTransition's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Hi there, Yeah, I'll still be doing Micro in the Spring, but everything else will be taken care of this semester. What is your degree in? What field are you in now? Arizona, huh? my husband and I...

  23. Columbia ETP 2010

    GoalsInTransition replied to eyeontheprize's topic in New York Nursing

    Hi there, I am also applying to this program. My GPA (undergrad) is 3.84, my pre-req GPA is 4.0 (I'm taking Micro this semester, though)... GRE... well, I did 1290. I was a little disappointed, but...

    GoalsInTransition replied to GoalsInTransition's topic in New York Nursing

    I will definitely be letting everyone know what's up as soon as I hear. I'm SOOO glad the GRE is done with (for me), so now I just have to hope for the best. Good luck to everyone!!!!

    GoalsInTransition replied to GoalsInTransition's topic in New York Nursing

    Hi Mark, My application is now complete, since I took the GRE today, and I hope to hear from Pace soon. I got a 630 Quantitative and 660 Analytical. My undergrad GPA is 3.84 and my pre-req GPA is a...
