Hello All I am a nursing student and working on trying to narrow down my topic for a research synthesis paper. I am interested in doing neonatal circumcision to reduce infections in infancy however I am having a hard time relating this directly with ...

I am applying for the fastbacc program starting in May 2011 and curious if anyone has already gone through it. I don't see any threads about this program so I thought I would start one. I have an interview in 2 weeks and really nervous! Ive read the ...

I'm currently in nursing school, first semester. I find that the nursing care plan books help alot in learning how to write all aspects of care plans. I use them heavily along with my nursing books. Dont feel like you have to write and invent all thi...

I'm not sure if they take experience into account or not. I obviously don't have any so it must not be that big a deal. As for my scores - I got a cum score of 87 on the hesi. I did real well in all but Science. That is what brought my score down. I ...

Hi sugarmagnolia, I was accepted into the May 2011 class and will be starting this may. I am SOOOO excited!!! With Baylor, I have had a great experience right from the beginning. I interviewed in Sept/Oct ( I cant remember which month) and found out...

CAgirlintx, With those stats, how did you not get into the program??

Yes it is possible to get into a class during that time. I think you are talking about late registration. The best way to do it is to make sure you register as soon as it opens. I have registered that way each semester and have gotten into the class ...

Yep! Me too... Woke up to my rejection letter at well. However I did find out that all those that were accepted were notified the 5th of November. I'm a little bummed because I felt that I was pretty competitive with my grades however maybe it was th...

I think it really just depends on the admissions committee at each school. Sorry but I am not waiting for a decline letter. I'm waiting to hear on my acceptance so I can go ahead with my current plans. Waiting for failure is insane. Why apply if you ...

I want to ask why you think it will be tomorrow but actually I'm hoping it will be tomorrow. Im tired of waiting!!! (and checking my email... )

Congrats for getting accepted! I'm waiting to hear about the acceptance for El Paso. Has anyone heard in the El Paso group? I'm surprised Austin heard so quickly, their interviews were later than ours! haha I'm even more nervous!

I think it depends on your teacher. I took a 4 week class m-f, 8 hours a day and felt it was a breeze. We went over the reading before the quizzes and had to do our workbook every night. It was definitely common sense however don't rely on that makin...

I feel my interview went well however I also feel that you never really know how an interview goes unless you get it/ or don't get what you are going after. I've had great interviews for jobs that I didn't get and horrible interviews for jobs I did g...

Wow, I never even thought about them keeping track but doubt they do. That is funny tho.. hehe I know your anxious as I! I have been checking everyday and well yesterday when I checked I actually had gotten the interview times and chose one. Then I...

I do not know about Austin, however I do know that the interviews are a week after the ones here in El Paso. So it is possible that Austin has not let you'all know yet. I've just been checking Merlin everyday (lol) and it was there... Then I logged i...

RN2BENAUSTIN, I just got notice that I have been extended an interview with Tech here in El Paso. I'm a little nervous about the interview but I just had one this past weekend with Baylor, so I have an idea of what to expect however I'm a little nerv...

They sent out an email for interviews today. If an interview was extended to you, it should be on merlin. I applied for Spring 2011 in El Paso.

I bought Kaplans nursing entrance exams and used that to prepare. I feel that it did prepare me however I didn't do so well on the sciences. I didn't study those sections because I had just completed A&P and felt pretty confident however you can ...

I agree! Often times the reason it's hard to find a job is because you are listening to the negative advice from others and not trying or you are approaching it the wrong way. I know several new grads that have gotten job offers straight out of schoo...

@flutterbye67 - I sure hope you're right. I've read so much about scores in the 80's and 90's and although at this point, that I'm not sure which version they were for. I haven't read much on here about scored on the 5th version of the test tho. On t...

Yes. There are 20 non graded questions on the test that they use for reference. They do this on most all standardized exams for "research purposes". LOL I've run into this quite a few times.

I took the Teas V yesterday and had one question pertaining to perimeter...

I took the Teas V yesterday and just learned I got an 77.3 composite score. I'm pretty bummed about it, but we shall see what happens. I am taking the HESI tomorrow and brushing up on my science as that was the one i didn't do too well in. As for ret...
