    NJCheyla replied to busylady's topic in Florida Nursing

    We need the BLS certification. I guess I will have to ask questions before registering for the class. As far as the shots, "titers must be done within 3 months of starting the program." that is good...

    NJCheyla replied to busylady's topic in Florida Nursing

    scrubsrus, I hope you are right. I am pretty confident that I will get a 'yes' but I am concerned with the amount of competition for n/w slots. From what I have gathered on other posts, n/w this...

    NJCheyla replied to busylady's topic in Florida Nursing

    Yes, I work FT at a company that closes at 5p everyday and is closed on weekends. It's a great schedule. I put n/w as my #1 choice and then days as #2. I hope I don't get an offer for days..I would...

    Hi scrubsrus! thanks for sharing that info. Good luck on your application. Are you going for days or n/w? I wonder if anyone would know what the lowest score for n/w was in the recent past. hmmmm

    @EmGray, lol I feel the same way. I wish they would say, "here's a letter with all the details so you can start preparing." @FutureRN022, what's the difference in cost b/w FSCJ and Chamberlain? Will...

    EmGray, the nursing office told me not to expect any correspondence until the last week in July.

    NJCheyla replied to busylady's topic in Florida Nursing

    So sorry to hear you are bummed, FutureRN022. I think you might still have a shot. Are you sure you calculated the points correctly? Are you going for days or n/w? I could see how the science section...

    NJCheyla replied to busylady's topic in Florida Nursing

    K nurse-one-day, is it really that bad? What would you say is the hardest thing about Pharmacology? I see many horror stories on AN about it. Is there anything us future nursing students can do to...

    NJCheyla replied to busylady's topic in Florida Nursing

    Also, do I have to "Provide evidence of current CPR certification" with my application? I am reading this off the FSCJ website. I thought I read somewhere that we can provide that after we are...

    Thanks for the replies. Has anyone reading this completed Micro? Do you think it would be worth my time to put together a study group? Do you know of any sites that are useful for studying...

    NJCheyla replied to busylady's topic in Florida Nursing

    Do you think taking the NAT on May 23rd for the June 1st deadline is cutting it too close? I am taking it online. I am contemplating two dates, May 16th and May 20th (or anywhere in between.) My 1st...
