The pharmacy will catch up to them soon. Drug testing is pointless because anyone can have a script for norco. Impairment is different than diverting. Impairment you tell mgmt ndiverting I don't get involved and I don't consign.

Congrats to you guys. The program is great, can't make any promises about the weather along the lake in January though. Catch up on your sleep! You're about to loose it all.

Congrats! The program is awesome.

Talkto the programs you are interested in. MOst schools that I looked into considered the WHOLE person, not just one aspect of your profile, ie. undergrad. They should look at the GPA in addition to your letters of recommendation, your volunteer experience, your essays, etc. If they are smart, and your package is good, they should give you a shot. If they deny you, take a look at who is denying you and see if someone will talk to you about it. I was in a similar situation as you and applied to a few schools and only one said no because of the low GPA. All the others gave me a chance to tell my story and I was able to select my first-choice school. Get some experience or go volunteer. They look highly at those items.

Why did you fail? I'd look at what you could do to improve your performance before you move to another program so you can succeed in your choosed degree program. Some people are just not cut out for Nursing school and that is not a slap to you, just the reality.

Talk to your instructor and find out how much is actually tested from the book versus lecture materials and inclass assignments. If it is not much, only use the book as a reference and focus on quality note taking and study guides. At my school the instructor said first day that her study guides are the ruling document and the lectures support those. So I am not going to read the book unless I have to.

You're supposed to upload all the documents to the application pages on the Web site. There is a place for all these. The people writing your rec letters are supposed to upload them by way of e-mail they receive when you include their information on the site. Good luck!

The answer is actually in your question. The "have a BS in Biology." The BS in Nursing is a comnpletely different degree. Therefore the only was to get a BSN is to go through a BSN program. You can not piece together or back into a BSN through any other method.

Just get your meds straightened out and on a plan that gets you to a better place. If your PCP can't do it, then find someone who can.

I'm not a lawyer, but I would also becareful posting things that would not be considered public record. Depending on the OP intentions, which I see as simply discussion, however harmless, could be bordering calumny?

All depends on what you want to do. If you think a MSN will get you to your goal faster, that is the route you should take. For me, I want to get out and working sooner so the ABSN was my choice. All private educations are expensive, just how much can you afford? Also note that many ABSN programs allow you to apply to Masters programs before you leave your current program and start a couple of Masters classes while you're in your ABSN (if you're accepted). I know Loyola and I think UIC allows you to do this.

One more class! O Chem this summer. Yippie!

Note most Advanced Practice degrees require a couple years experience before being accepted to the program. This is if you want to go the NP route. MSN is very different than ADN or NP route, though. The question comes down to what do you want to do? Do you want to be an administrator or do you want to work bedside? Get the degree that best matches your goals.

My college does background checks too. They also state that you may not be able to complete clinicals based on hospital guidelines of the places you'll be at. They follow that iwth something like 'if you're unable to complete clinicals, you'll likely not pass the necessary classes and thus be dismissed.' It's pretty simple in my eyes. If you have had moments of judgement lapse in the past, who's to say you're not going to have a similar lapse working with a patient?

I'd avoid any discrimination situations by simply falling back on the admission guidelines and dismiss the applicant.

Last I checked Res U was 16 months as well. They do have a nights and weekend program that takes 21 months if you want to work. Lewis University also has a nights and weekend program that is about 2 years long. I don't think you'll find a ABSN that is 12 months long. Just too much to cover in that time. Even if you did find one, ther would be no way you could work in a program like that. I heard through the grapevine that Chamberlin may be looking to install their 13 month program in Addison laterthis year, but that is just hear-say.

You meet the qualifications for Resurrection (2.75). Just do well on the TEAS test and your science classes...that is my advice.

I can't understand how they can charge $28K for LPN. It's a 1 year program, maybe 1.5 at the most. That is obsurd. Take it at your CC. Save the money.

Science was 4.0. Overall 3.0.

I got my letter of acceptance last week. The TEAS is harder than last year, thus the change in the lower threshold limit. I am still mulling my decision...

Anyone who tells you to sue the school for not taking you because you are out of district is not providing you good advice. Taking students in district before out of district is the design of the community college district system. The program was designed so everyone has an equal opportunity at THEIR IN DISTRICT college. If you choose to go outside your district, that is completely up to you. Anyway, it seems like most community college programs are good. I am finishing up my pre-reqs at Triton before I move on to another school. I was recently accepted to their program, which has a great reputation as a tough, thorough program. I've heard the same about COD, MVCC, Harper, Oakton, etc. I guess you can't go wrong with any of these ADN programs...unless you really want a BSN or MSN.

The science stuff can be a little obscure. It is wise to study that thoroughly. Know the other stuff...but math is math, reading comprehension is just that. The Science has stuff about Pundentt Square, meiosis, mitosis, gen chem stuff. It's not real hard, but your brain will hurt when it is over.

I am done applying. I am just waiting to hear now. It's just been a long process. I look forward to taking some time off.

I'm just tired. I've been at my pre-reqs for 15 months and am getting ready to finish up in May. It's been a long time coming, but I am tired. Tired of Physiology, tired of Statistics, just tired. I need a break, soon.

It's not easy. At the same time it's not hard. Take your time and go through the manual and you will score what you need. Make sure you are sharp in the math, reading and english sections as those will help you from falling below the 64.
