    Tiffany110207 posted a topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    I took the HESI exam for the LPN program & got a 98% average. I know that's a high score, but I'm worried alot of people scored that high & I won't get in. What is the average school that most...

    Has anyone else applied for the LPN program at Florida Gateway College in Lake City, FL to start in January? I am so nervous waiting to find out if I got

    That's really good! I believe I have class 2 days and clinicals 2 days. But that's after the first month of just classes. I'm sure your clinicals will be way more intense than mine since you're doing...

    All of my physicals and stuff aren't due til Jan 3rd, but my orientation is Oct. 30th. It's looking like I'm exempt from 4/6 classes during the first semester so I'm happy about that too. I'm not...

    Well, I didn't get accepted to NFCC on Monday, but luckily I got my acceptance letter for FGC yesterday so I turned in the paper today saying that I accept my seat. Did you get into FGC too? Although...

    Thank you! I hope that I find out early like you did.. I've already started "stalking" my mailman for that letter lol. At least I should know about both within the next 2-3 weeks. You have worked hard...

    Oh my goodness.. Congratulations! I'm so happy for you & at least your wait ended earlier than expected. I guess you will no longer be waiting for the LPN acceptance! =) Thank you, I REALLY hope I...

    Yeah, NFCC gives preference for their area too & only takes twenty something people so I know how you feel. Luckily for FGC I just moved to Lake City. I know 2 years is a long time, but since we...

    That's a really good score though so hopefully you will get into the RN program! All that county stuff is crazy. I wish all schools would just take the students who are best qualified. I'm not exactly...

    Tiffany110207 replied to Tiffany110207's topic in Florida Nursing

    I was thinking the same thing.. I figured at least if I got them early I could get familiar with them since I'm pretty sure they will be our new best friends. Like you said though, I don't have the...

    I stopped working too & it gets so boring! Even after we find out that we DO get into the programs, time will still drag by til January. I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one that will be...

    Tiffany110207 replied to Tiffany110207's topic in Florida Nursing

    True, but you have to do what you want and any higher degree is good to have. I wanted my Bachelors in Health Service Administration, but if I'm an RN, I'd rather have it in nursing incase I decide to...

    It is! Our midterm & final equals 60% of our grade & if I can't pass the quizzes with an open book, my hopes aren't high for passing the class. lol. I don't know how you took Anatomy online!...

    Yeah, I can see how people would wanna call every day because waiting is hard! It's Microeconomics that I'm just not getting. I wish I had not taken it online. I brought my accounting grade up. It's...

    You're right. I just called and financial aid told me as long as I pass the others I should be okay. I'm dying waiting too! I'm kinda hoping they tell us a later date than they actually send them just...

    Hmm, I will have to check into that. I had also came across a website awhile back for scholarships, but it was kinda confusing. I wish the schools told you certain sources because looking online, it's...

    That's a good idea. I should start doing the same just incase. & I found my HESI paper & I was wrong. I didn't get a 98. I had a 96. Still good though. But as for financial aid, I think it...

    When I asked they told me I could as long as I had not completed a bachelor's degree because that's when it's no longer available. I hope that's true because that worries me. I didn't even know there...

    I'm glad I'm not the only one. I ended up with 84 credits & for the same reason- changing majors. I lost my financial reason for the same reason though. At least with my bachelors they gave it...

    Oh, that's good. Too bad it wasn't closer! I think that's mostly where LPNs work too. I would be fine working at a physicians office though because I want to work in OB. Not sure if I will like Labor...

    Ugh, I know! Most people are wanting to go into nursing for the wrong reasons too. I feel that good grades & where you live aren't exactly what makes you a good nurse. Is FSCJ in Jacksonville? I...

    Thanks, that makes me feel a little bit better. I had repeated some of my main nursing classes though so I don't have the best transcript and like you, I took my courses all out of county. (Santa Fe...
