Hello! I just got finished doing my application for Bon Secours Memorial College of Nursing. I just took the TEAS test on Saturday and scored a 74% overall and passed all sections with higher than a 60% which meets the schools requirements. I just wa...

I just got a job as a care tech in Richmond, VA. The HR rep that I was speaking with said the pay ranged from 9-12 per/hr depending on experience. It depends on the hospital though I guess? Some care techs are responsible for more than others. I know...

Hi soulshine101 I just finished my first semester at JSR. It was very intense. I have two children and I don't work, I studied my tush off to make it through and it was a struggle. I think out of the 60 that got in by the end we had about 40 left. I ...

I've ordered all my books. I have my physical next week and am waiting on my immunization record to get here so I can take that to the DR office. I have to order the background check next week. Since I just got in last week I am now rushing to get ev...

I originally wanted section 2 based on the handout from orientation, but then they switched the clinical to Sat . So I picked section 6, but theres a conflict with NUR 226 06 lab time. ( it's been a little unorganized, but I guess that's to be expect...

Things have been good! i got into the program!! I wrote you to let you know! So excited to start as soon as they work the stuff out with this registration! I choose section 6. How about you?

I agree. Since you want to do GP learning every area is a must! You never know our clinical rotations may surprise us and change our minds. I've wanted to do neonatal since I was in high school. Then I got pregnant with my first son and had him at 2...

Yes!! Study groups are a MUST. I've been emailing every hospital to see if there are any potential NICU/PCN volunteer oppertunities. I know that that isn't typical because it's critical care, but I do have a few connections in the NICU since both of ...

Hey! It's been so nice to go through all of this with y'all. We need to keep in touch!! Aprincess- They 'make' you put a last name on facebook, but I just put my middle name in as my last that way if an not one can search for me using my full name. ...

Thank goodness I found this board. I am also a nursing student looking to pursue NICU. I was just wondering is there anything that I can do in school to help gear me to going into this field of nursing? Also when looking for a job in NICU would it al...

Ahhh I don't have Twitter. I made one a while back, but have no idea how to work it. I found the article on the press center. You have so many amazing accomplishments. You really are a wonder woman. So amazing! JSR is so lucky to have such a well-rou...

Yea, I know I shouldn't worry! I'll post if I hear anything! Thanks so much for keeping me posted :). If you want to facebook me I'm under Leigh Anne in Hanover, VA ( no last name, I try to keep it semi-private) That way you can put a name with a fa...

lol. Well your good connections have been so helpful to me! Thank you so much for keeping me updated on everything that you have heard! Since I have taken a lot of my classes through distance learning (because of my children) it's been hard to meet p...

Where do you get all this great info from? You seem to be really well connected!!

You really get the best information!! lol. So happy I commented on this thread and got in touch with you!! I really hope this means good things for me :) :) AHHH!

aprincess- CONGRATS! That's awesome! Best of luck to you at NVCC!

Thanks!! I really hope so!!! Hopefully my chances are good. They did say there has never been a term they can remember where they didn't take an alternate, so that's good news!

I hope so! (not that I hope something horrible happens to someone, but I hope that people decide not to go, got into somewhere else etc). I'm just trying to figure out how many people actually got alternate and how they then let people in. It's just ...

I wish. lol. I hope so. We'll see. I'm trying to find out where I am on the alternate list that way I know how many people have to decide not to attend the program for me to get my seat! Hopefully I'm #1 lol. I still HAVE to go on the 26th so I'll se...

Have y'all hear anything!?!? I'm still trying to get in touch with someone who can tell me how this 'alternate' thing works. I have to know whether or not to put my kids in childcare! AHHHH I hope yall get in!

I got in as an alternate. Go for info session on the 26th. Hopefully a spot opens up!

You'll get in your scores were so good on the Kaplan and you have that 4.0. I wouldn't even stress. So let me know when you GET IN. lol. I'm so worried. With that "F" from 2006 factored in English it makes my GPA look terrible (Even though I have wor...

Wow, yea fingers crossed. Who told you this? Let me know when you hear something.

No updates yet. When I dropped by application the admissions lady said that we would hear back by the end of June at the latest ( that way we would all be able to be ready for Fall start). I believe we get letters via mail from what she said, but if ...

Aprilslife, That makes me feel so much better! Keeping my fingers crossed for us! Post when you get your acceptance!
