hey! btw: wasn't trying to offend. I'm all for humility; I just don't necessarily buy into the same definition of it as you do :) It is just a test score. All you have to do is a "pax results" search...
You lucky people, taking the computer version! :) It felt like forever waiting on scores for the paper version-- about three weeks. And nah, not harvard. Another top college, but didn't do me much...
Rovila, I did a little bit of reviewing the study books for the PAX from the Carnegie library, and I got a 156 composite, 99Reading, 99Math, 98Science, 99th percentile composite. I noticed when I took...
looking at the schedule on ccac central e-services, I see actually mon/tues are set for the evening program, because that is just how it is arranged. then you can pick to do clinicals on wed evening...
I don't know if they do the lottery system at all the campuses. I know that when I registered today, she told us that mon/tues lab/lecture was set for us (I thought there was a choice, guess not?) and...
Thanks for the encouragement and the offer of assitance, Tokidoki! You guess get your NRN101 packets yet? They are available in the campus bookstore...there are sample drug calc questions to, fyi.
BTW: are there any other guys lurking around here who are going to be in the Allegheny nursing program? I know there are usually 5 or 6 per program. Hope I'm not the only one
I guess it pays to have a clean record :) I'm kind of glad that they winnow people out; I for one would not want a nurse or doctor who just skated by on a low
At one point I called the office where they handle the child abuse clearances and they said that processing is taking a full three weeks. If you have not received it by three weeks, here's their...
Thanks for the info. Got my child abuse clearance back today. All I know in regards to the uniforms is that when I went into the store, she told me I had better order them right away because they take...
BTW: does anyone know if we are REQUIRED to get our uniforms from American Discount Uniform? They said it is going to be at least a month-- and I just sent the form yesterday. Scrubs are scrubs are...
I got my 2-step tb done as well, and had blood drawn for titers on 11-19. Sent in form for my uniform (don't know if I will get them in time). I have CPR coming up. Drug test/physical done. Just...
Hi Meowmixer, I got the master stethoscope only because my brother is an RN, and that is what he suggested to me. He has one and says he loves it. lol. And, yes, I had fingerprinting done back in I...
For those trying to find a place for the drug test or physical, you can get both bone at Concentra in Oakland. The drug test was $60, and she said they also offer the physical for I think $59 or...
kg0730, I'm not really sure if it's frowned upon at all to jump straight from the ASN into MSN, rather than going the ASN-BSN-MSN route. I would think not so since the BSN is kind of already...
You can also just do your RN to BSN completely online in less than one additional year-- depending on where you complete it-- while working with your ASN. Most entry-level nursing jobs pay the same...
Hi GMW! I called Allegheny County Health Dpt; I believe they said titers are $15 each and the TB test is $25. I'm still trying to figure out where to go for my physical. Doing CPR at CCAC:...
Haha, yes it's me. Hi Amy! Are you in APII and/or Microbio now? If so, how's that going? First the awful experience with the vanishing professor in API, then my APII instructor got ill (not her fault...
