alright thanks for the information.. im so glad im getting advices from nursing students who are ahead of me. =))

how did you apply for an amazon credit card? i wanna do that too.. As for the school supplies? did you purchase the stethoscope at the campus or the NSNA or u can buy it anywhere?

ok thanks for the advice..

oh ok.. nevermind then.. ill just purchase the nursing books on amazon or if not at the bookstore..

Thanks guava turtle.. i might just buy second hand books to save some money..

i also wanna ask if is it too hard to get an A for the first semester?

Hi, i got admitted for fall 2011 rn program in cypress. i just wanna ask where can get a cheaper medical exams in oc?

Hi, im going to take the teas test version 5 this week, and i dont have the book for the newer version of the test. Im only relying on the version 3.0/4.0 book. I just wanna ask, when u took the version v what area of science and math should i focus on? i dont really know if i should study the geology section or just study the anatomy&physio. Any advice will be helpful for me..

Hi there! im going to take the teas test version 5 this january, and i dont know what should i study on the science section. i wanna score high this time.. could u pls pm me? pls?

Hi nursejewels! i checked the link that you posted, and im interested on doing hands on volunteer service. However, i couldn't find the application process on their website. can you tell me how did apply for it? i would appreciate any information that you will share. :)

yeah sure.. i havent taken teas test too. maybe saddleback is just not meant for me. hope we both get in to a nursing program sooner.

I only applied to Saddleback. I was suppose to apply in GWC, but on their website it said that only GWC or OCC students could apply for January. The rest who took the pre-requisite classes to other colleges could only apply this coming October. Im also planning to apply in Cypress. Anyway, have you taken pharmacology and gerontology in Saddleback?

no, they didn't contact me. Ive tried calling them, but no one's answering.

hello there! i got my letter today.. i think i didnt get in. they said that im on the 3rd pool of applicants, and they have an alternate list, and 2nd pool of applicants. they are advising me to take pharma and gero, N61. now i dont know if i should follow their advise. they said that im not guaranteed that i will have a slot in spring 2011.. ahh i hate it. how about you? what is your plan? are you gonna take those classes too?

i think i didn't get in.. their letter wass quite vague.. they didnt say that i didnt get in, but im on the 3rd selection pool. and they have an alternate list and 2nd pool.. they're advising me to take pharmacology and gerontology classes. i dont know if i should follow their advise or not.

i havent recieved the letter yet. i think im not gonna get in.. i got all A's in bio classes, but my over all gpa is 3.5! =(( this is sad! =((((

yeah, you're right. once they change their admitting process it would be completely dfferent, and i dont think i will be able to get in.. thanks for your information.i hope we both get in for fall 2010;).

hi wildemel! thanks for your reply. yes I got A's in anatomy, physiology, and microbiology. What i meant with my last semester gpa is my gpa from the most recent semester (fall 09).

hello there, I also applied for their Fall 10 rn program.. I just want to ask what are my chances to get in? I have a 4.0 on my bio and 4.0 on my last semester gpa. However, my over-all college gpa is 3.5,and that is because of my previous classes that i had C's on..

hello everyone.. i just want to know how much does it cost for the entire 2 yrs rn program of saddleback college? im planning to apply there this coming feb 16, and also in golden west this jan 11. i checked the cost of golden west rn program, and it was $4800 something. im not sure if saddleback college has the same tuition fee.

Yes it is credited. I know for sure because i had my transcripts been evaluated there, and also my friends who graduated from the philippines had there transcript evaluation in AERC. But, im not a BSN graduate in ph. I started my college here and still continuing. Goodluck with your endeavors.

you can have your transcript evaluation in AERC. check their website http://www.aerc-eval.com/ then after your trascripts been evaluated try to apply to any UC or CSU for a graduate program. btw, what hospital are you working in?

Im planning to apply in Golden West too, but i read from the previous thread that the instructors from the rn progam in golden west are quite scary. Is that true? and uhm.. do you know what color is their uniform? i just want to know.

Hi Apgar10! thanks for your reply, i appreciated it. although my last semester gpa is 3.45, my science prereqs are 4.0. Im planning to apply next year (feb) for fall 2010, but im not sure if i will be able to get in to their program by fall 2010..
