  1. UNF summer 2011 hopefull

    FLhusker replied to FLhusker's topic in Florida Nursing

    Does anyone know what questions they might ask in the interview? I would suspect ones like "why do you want to be a nurse" and "what qualities do you think a nurse should have" and "why should we...

  6. Nervous about applying to schools.

    FLhusker replied to katetastical's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It really depends on the school. I applied to one nursing program that looks at an all-college GPA which means every class I've ever taken. Another program I will apply to ONLY looks at the pre-req...

  7. Overwhelmed and Underencouraged

    FLhusker replied to savnlivzPRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    All I can say is, don't settle. If becoming an RN is really what you want then stick to your guns and go for it. It will be worth it in the end. I knew I wanted to become an RN when I was 23 years...

  9. Taking 13 credits for a Summer semester in order to make January admissions!?

    FLhusker replied to Skylarslaughter's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You can challenge the CNA test in Florida. That schedule doesn't look too difficult. I found nutrition and Psych easy and if you know much about computers, the computer class shouldn't be that...

  10. My reaction to the 1st semester of A&P...

    FLhusker replied to guest042302019's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was terrifed about A&P before I took it. Turns out, it was my all time favorite class and not nearly as hard as I thought it would be. Mircobiology was the same way. Chemistry on the other...

  13. HELP! Bombed the HESI Entrance Test

    FLhusker replied to alphadog0228's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    For the reading, they will give you a topic covering a few paragraphs and then ask about 5 or 6 questions from the topic. You can refer to the paragraphs when answering so that makes it easy. You will...

    FLhusker replied to Taylo040's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My friend is a single mom with two elementary school children. She recently graduated from an accelerated program. Although she made it through, she said it was a gruelling 13 months and was hard on...

  15. HELP! Bombed the HESI Entrance Test

    FLhusker replied to alphadog0228's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    I just took the HESI today. Math....huge number of questions covering ratios and fractions, if you know those you will do well. NO algebra, it was very easy and all basic math. Oh, but do brush up on...

    FLhusker replied to escapebigd's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    Has anyone taken the TEAS V and the HESI? I took the TEAS a few months ago and scored an 86....wondering if the HESI is about the same because I'm about to take

  17. Who's taken the teas v?

    FLhusker replied to sch1109's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    Has anytone taken both the TEAS V and the HESI? I took the TEAS V in October and got an 87....but the science section was particularly brutal....it is what brought my score down. i thought the Math...

  19. UNF summer 2011 hopefull

    FLhusker replied to FLhusker's topic in Florida Nursing

    It is amazing how many men are applying right now. I guess when we women post things we assume we are talking to other women but not so....many of you are men and I think that is great! I personally...

    FLhusker replied to KaliAshlynK's topic in Florida Nursing

    I will apply for fall as well if I don't get accepted this summer. Do you know if we have to pay another application fee and go through everything again? I recall reading that the TEAS V score is...

    FLhusker replied to FLhusker's topic in Florida Nursing

    marycnew.....I know someone who just graduated the accelerated program and she said it was very intense. Even though I already have a degree, I have young children and I think accelerated would be...

  22. Didn't get into my top choice . . . what to do in the meantime?

    FLhusker replied to iridium54's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Don't give up yet....you are on the waitlist and many students do decline so you may get a spot. I am in the same boat as you, I have one school that I really want to go to. Fortunately, this...

  23. FSCJ Summer 2011 Hopefuls

    FLhusker replied to Str8Aspls's topic in Florida Nursing

    Well, the way SJRCC does it is they award 10 points to those from St. Johns County. This still gives candidates from other counties a chance. I think that both schools, since they claim they are now...

  24. can anyone explain what an online course is actually like?

    FLhusker replied to cdrcan's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am taking Nutrition on-line right now. It is a complete joke. I'm not learning anything. Over the past 5 weeks we've had 2 assignments that took about 15 minutes to complete and the test was...

  25. FSCJ Summer 2011 Hopefuls

    FLhusker replied to Str8Aspls's topic in Florida Nursing

    I just heard back from the FSCJ nursing administrator who says, and I quote "we take a couple of students from other counties". Gee, not very encouraging to take a COUPLE out of 160! I hope you all...
