  2. Puerto Rico school feedback - thread #2

    I would do CPR before you leave the states. If you do BLS now it will be valid the whole two years you are in school. Here there are some people that do it independently but through Red Cross or...
  3. Puerto Rico school feedback - thread #2

    That is awesome you are already an LVN. That makes things so much easier. Since a huge difference in LVN and RN is medications I urge you to take a pharmocology class while you are in the states as...
  4. Puerto Rico school feedback - thread #2

    You have to do it in person in the nursing building. You have to do first time registration in person. Yes there is orientation. It is not required but that is how I registered the first time. I...

  6. Puerto Rico school feedback - thread #2

    Your welcome. You can "like" my post so my reputation points go up. That is one thing I found here that people don't "like" posts as they do in other forums. But yeah I lot of people want to message...
  7. Puerto Rico school feedback - thread #2

    I traveled with a ton of stuff but not any furniture. I bought a bed here and a couple other things. My first place a friend gave me a couch but you kind of end up living like a student when it...
  8. Puerto Rico school feedback - thread #2

    I prefer to talk on the board because this way everyone benefits from the responses. I have a lot of people that message me with general questions that either have been answered or that people can...

    Most people live in Las Cumbres because it is close to school. There are 4 of them. There is a more info about Las Cumbres in the other
  10. Puerto Rico school feedback - thread #2

    You can ask me but I don't know if I can answer them. I don't know her very well. She started teaching this year but was not teaching the seniors. She seems very good and is by the books which can...
  11. Puerto Rico school feedback - thread #2

    Thanks. I send a couple of messages the last couple years to you guys asking for this. I am so glad that US Territories has their own section now as it did not make sense to house these threads in...
  12. Puerto Rico school feedback - thread #2

    Shipping stuff is really cheap. I shipped 27 boxes of stuff including a printer and a bicycle for about 750 bucks and that was from San Francisco. It may be cheaper from FL. I tried to find the...
  13. Puerto Rico school feedback - thread #2

    Everyone that I know that applied speaks Spanish. But again they can only pick 2. And last year when ****** applied I know some of the other candidates from my class and they were all very bright...
  14. Puerto Rico school feedback - thread #2

    ***** is brilliant. She studied one year of Spanish in high school. She studied 2 years of French in college the first time around. Then she did a semester in AFrica in Mali and learned some...
  15. Puerto Rico school feedback - thread #2

    Yeah it is a great honor. ******* is the one from La Inter in the Valor program. I know a couple people from our school that applied this year but didn't get it. It may be an age thing too though...
  16. Puerto Rico school feedback - thread #2

    I don't speak Spanish at all so I am going back to San Francisco to study NCLEX then I kind of have something lined up but I don't want to jinx it. So I'll post that once it starts but it will be yet...
  17. Puerto Rico school feedback - thread #2

    Took my last final tonight and it was very bitter sweet. Then many of us were in registration getting all the signatures to pick up our cap and gown. Many people are not going to graduations since...
  18. Puerto Rico school feedback - thread #2

    I think everyone is busy with finals. This has been the most insane two weeks of the program. It will take people time to catch onto this one. The other thread was kind of dying because I was the...
  19. what states NEED nurses ?

    Yeah I'll tell him. I think he is super discouraged like everyone else. It sucks when you are willing to go anywhere but you can't even get a phone
  20. what states NEED nurses ?

    He applied in Eagle Pass, Laredo, Abilene and other cities. Rejection letters or no replies at all. Like I said he was a 4.0 student with a solid resume and references. It really sucks out
  21. what states NEED nurses ?

    The problem is I know of people applying all over the place. Willing to move anywhere. Applying to dangerous TX border towns, North Dakota. Where ever they hear there may be an opening. They don't...
  22. RN program missing pharmacology!!!!!

    Many of the accelerated programs do not have pharm but it is a prereq for the program. I had a hard time finding a pharm class in my area when I was doing prereqs. There was only one community...
  23. Puerto Rico school feedback - thread #2

    I have class at 3PM on Monday in the nursing building. If you are there on Monday maybe we can meet up. Yeah it was quite silly for them to close a VERY active thread for the sole reason that it...
  24. Puerto Rico school feedback?

    By the way I wanted to mention this. So at Inter the accelerated program is 22 months, basically 2 years. The non-accelerated program if you have no credits and are starting from scratch is 3 years...
  25. Puerto Rico school feedback?

    Believe me I am NOT saying La Inter is the better school. We have TONS of problems and they are noted all over this board. All of us stated front and center all the La Inter issues. However, you...
