1. WGU RN-BSN prereq question

   nickasarbata replied to Nurseades2b's topic in Western Governors University

2. Austin community college nursing program: what to expect

   nickasarbata replied to Mindy679's topic in Texas Nursing

   I'll also chime in. I'm also graduating in December. In my experience, one thing I would have liked to know is that the calendars are hugely deceptive. Our calendars (especially in level 1) would...

4. Clinicals - - what to expect?

   nickasarbata replied to livmoore89's topic in General Students

   In my program, everyone is required to take a basic nursing skills course (basically a CNA course) before being accepted into the program. So in first semester's clinicals we were expected to be able...

   nickasarbata replied to lejpej's topic in Texas Nursing

   lejpej - Just now seeing your message so you may already be retaking some classes. Their system is pretty ridiculous, but it's because we're now competing with so many other schools for clinical...

   Does anybody know what we're supposed to wear to orientation on the 10th? Scrubs, business casual, or whatever we want? Also, where did you guys get your patches sewn on? I got the patches, but the...

   nickasarbata replied to lw7789's topic in Texas Nursing

   It is pretty overwhelming to take all three, but it can be done. I did all three plus human g&d and still got all A's. Things are different now - perfect grades are no longer enough, reapplication...

    nickasarbata replied to lw7789's topic in Texas Nursing

    We don't have rankings until we get the letters (and even then I don't know if they "rank" the people who actually get in. Last time when I didn't get in I had 56 points and was ranked 167). This...
