  1. ABSN Duke Fall 2010

    kspills10 replied to Maryash79's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Yeah I don't know. I would think that AP credit would transfer, but I'm not sure. I'm in the same boat with the general psych requirement. I had AP credit and therefore didn't have to take intro to...

    kspills10 replied to Maryash79's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    In addition to already having the prereqs completed, perhaps another factor is prior health care experience. While schools don't necessarily require a certain number of hours, maybe it's just one of...

    Deep breath! Everyone always feels like their interview went horribly or that they could've done better, but have confidence in the fact that you were selected to interview. I'm sure it went better...

    Do you have someone specifically in mind that you're waiting on? Because I don't think anyone's mentioned that they had scheduled a phone interview for today. I could be wrong

  6. ABSN Duke Fall 2010

    kspills10 replied to Maryash79's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I'm just wondering how they decided which applicants to invite to interview if they haven't reviewed our files yet. Or were they reviewed by people who won't be conducting interviews? I was also...

    Oh, haha my mistake. Good

  8. Case Western Reserve University Graduate Entry DNP Fall 2010

    kspills10 replied to kspills10's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Thanks, I'm interviewing on the 29th as well (and FYI in you hadn't already noticed from our posts, we plan on going out to dinner after the interview if you'd like to join us as well!). Duke is my...

    kspills10 replied to kspills10's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Hey, I noticed you had posted on the Duke thread as well. Anyway, they do give you a decision pretty quickly, within 4 weeks after your interview. And I was contacted to set up an interview within a...

    Are we supposed to get something in the mail about Duke Days? If we are, hopefully they send it soon since the first interview day is in 2 weeks. Also, does anyone know if we have to have...

  11. Case Western Reserve University Graduate Entry DNP Fall 2010

    kspills10 replied to kspills10's topic in Post Graduate Students

    It was just one person interviewing me. It was very laid-back, the lady is super nice, and it lasted about 30 minutes. It's not just 30 minutes of her asking you questions though. You get to ask...

  12. ABSN Duke Fall 2010

    kspills10 replied to Maryash79's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    So I was looking through the student handback, and I noticed that during the final semester, students have to take "comprehensive diagnostic predictor examinations." If you don't get a certain score,...

  13. Case Western Reserve University Graduate Entry DNP Fall 2010

    kspills10 replied to kspills10's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I'm not sure what their class size limit is. I think they usually have around 30-40 in a class, but from what the one lady told me, they don't get that many applicants and usually end up accepting...

    kspills10 replied to kspills10's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Yes, I interviewed back in late October and found out I was accepted in mid November. I haven't accepted the admission offer yet. I'm going to see what happens with another school I'm interviewing at...

    kspills10 replied to Maryash79's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    My friend who's a PT at the Duke University Hospital said that there are some bad areas of Durham. Maybe that's mostly near the downtown area? I've looked at some apartments that are directly north...

    Congrats Carolina! I'm sad that we won't get to meet at Duke Days, but good luck with

    Well from hotel websites I've gathered that a cab from the airport to hotels near Duke would be around $30-35 one way, so it would definitely be cheaper to do the Supershuttle which only costs $32...

  18. ABSN Duke Fall 2010

    kspills10 replied to Maryash79's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Has anyone ever used this Supershuttle service, or heard anything about it? It seems pretty reliable, and I might use it for a pick up from the airport to the Millennium and vice versa. It's only $32...

    kspills10 replied to Maryash79's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Hey Twois thanks for the hotel suggestion. I am now leaning towards staying there, because Priceline's flight+hotel deal for the Millenium is about the same for the Comfort Inn I was looking at, and...

    Yeah haha, looks like we thought of the age thing at the same

  22. ABSN Duke Fall 2010

    kspills10 replied to Maryash79's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Haha... actually... I would not be 25 yet so most companies will not let me rent a car. And those that would, charge an additional "underage fee." Even if I were of age, it definitely would cost a lot...

  23. ABSN Duke Fall 2010

    kspills10 replied to Maryash79's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Would renting a car be cheaper? I figured I'd just pay the 30 bucks (yes, each way) so then I don't have to worry about finding my way to and from the hotel plus the cost of gas. Wouldn't it pretty...

  24. ABSN Duke Fall 2010

    kspills10 replied to Maryash79's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    For those interested, the Comfort Inn Medical Park located on Hillandale Road offers a free shuttle to the Duke campus between 8am and 4pm. It'd be about a $30 cab ride from the airport. Here are the...

    You southerners... we had snow here (in PA) a week or so ago. Nice big, beautiful snowflakes and a few inches on the ground I think. It's been a warm 30-some degrees here this week. Haha, I actually...
