you should get in too. if you don't, retake eng and psych next fall while you're waiting to apply again, and get A's.

Most of the people in the night program work full time during the day. A few work part time. It's completely doable. You just have to really put lots of hours into studying. I see people get wrapped up into the whole ambiance of studying in groups, and making pretty flashcards and all that BS and they don't actually get much studying done. Then they bomb and wonder why.

The Micro grade doesn't matter, only AP1, AP2, Eng and Psych. They just like to see that you've either taken Micro or you're enrolled in it during that interim semester while you're waiting for an answer. If anyone needs anymore info E-mail me at StevenStarke11[@]Gmail.com I'm graduating the night program in May and I'm pretty familiar with the details of the program.

I doubt it. Nursing educators are almost always NP's with numerous certifications, and have extensive experience working in nursing environments, both at the bedside and in leadership positions. Regardless of your teaching experiences, you wouldn't really be qualified to teach RN students if you only worked as an RN for a couple of years. You need a good amount of hands on experience in different patient care settings to offer an accurate view of what the Nursing field is about to students.

enroll in a BSN program. Why People are 1 year out with no job and NOT enrolled in an BSN program already is beyond me. If you were ALREADY in one and put that on your resume', I'm almost positive it would help!!

Yea, you're basically in. Good luck to you!!

Something is wrong with what you're saying. Hospitals dont use the same background check service the FBI uses. And I would never accept the answer of "I must have been doing something wrong". That's like saying I was at the bank in my grey mustang and another man in a grey mustang robbed it and escaped so when I get falsely accused It will be on my record forever even if I'm never prosecuted? You can't have an arrest expunged. Either you're leaving something out or you're misinformed about what's on your record or BOTH. If you weren't convicted of anything there is nothing to have expunged.

Someone told me that you can take the LPN test if you have completed 1/2 of a 2 year RN program. Does anyone know if this is true? I'm only asking because I'd like to know now and potentially do it this summer so I can attain a part time job as an LPN.

Do you know which program that is?

Really? I didn't know that. Are you sure that applies to CNA's as well? Because Hospitals CAN hire someone as a CNA even if they arent certified. I know someone that got a job less then 2 years ago after finishing her nursing fundamentals class. And I spoke to a few hospitals recently that said they will accept the completion of that class to be hired?

I have considered that but I cannot find an open CNA class that finishes before 8/30 and I cannot get the EKG, phlebotomy, EMT training all done AND get a new job by 8/30.

I may be going out on a limb but I don't know what else to do. I applied for Nursing back in dec, 09. I applied for the day program because my job at the time would work for that. I then was laid off and finally found a pretty decent job back in the end of April. It's mon-fri 9-5:30. Then come June, I get accepted to the day program. I'm on a waiting list for the night program but it's not looking good. I REALLY don't want to pass this up as I really invested alot into getting this far. I'm engaged with a 2 year old daughter and a mortgage as well so I cannot be unemployed. I have no healthcare experience but I work very well people and I believe I will be a great fit for an interactive position in the health field. I'm trying to find a job as a transporter or even nurses aide that will work with my school schedule. I already received my schedule and it consists of mon/tues/weds and no later then 3pm. I only take home about $550 a week now so there has got to be a position I can work mon/tues/weds eve and anytime on thurs-sun that I can take that much home. I'm also looking for a bartending/waiting position as well because I have about 4 years experience in that field and I believe that will also probably work with my schedule. I don't know what else to do. I'm desperate to find something by 8/30 so I can go to the program. If anyone has any suggestions or ideas, please let me know. I've already registered and applied for numerous jobs at St. Catherines, St. Charles, Mather, and Good Samaritan hospitals. I live in Patchogue and currently work in hauppague. My mother is a nurse at Southside hospital and I'm currently trying for them as well. I know that no one here knows me personally and probably wouldn't want to put themselves out there for a stranger, but this 5 min post is worth the small chance someone sees my plight and can help me out. I'm willing to work Full time, part time, per diem, on call, etc... I'll also work days, nights, weekends, holidays, etc... I really don't care, I just want to get in. Then after my first semester, I'd like to move into a CNA position and after my 2nd semester, I'd like to take the LPN test and hopefully move into an LPN position. Thank you in advance.

Dont apologize, I appreciate the help, thats why I said thank you!!! Hopefully I can figure this out!!

Jenny, I am aware of that and my plan is to come to work a little bit early any days I have to leave early. I believe they will be a little bit flexible with me. Thank you though.

no one?
