  2. Gainesville-Santa Fe College ASN Hopeful 2011

    gatormommy replied to CarmenMarie's topic in Florida Nursing

    After everyone gets their letters, should we start a post to help with getting everything done on time? I think it would help, there's so much to do. I would hate for one of us to not do something...

    gatormommy replied to CarmenMarie's topic in Florida Nursing

    I'm sorry. I read that wrong, they will register you for those classes you just have to let them know. Well, today was a pretty emotional day for me. I just finished taking my DEP2004...

    gatormommy replied to CarmenMarie's topic in Florida Nursing

    Floridagirl87- The letter said they would register you for your nursing classes, only. If you have to take nutrition and a+p ii, you have to register that on your own. I got the impression, from...

    gatormommy replied to CarmenMarie's topic in Florida Nursing

    gatormommy replied to CarmenMarie's topic in Florida Nursing

    LittleBirdie- At the advisement session, I went to, we were told that this fall semester would start the RN-BSN program. That is exciting bc I know that UF is not taking any apps for that program...

    gatormommy replied to CarmenMarie's topic in Florida Nursing

    So..............if the health science office anticipated sending letters out yesterday, that means, if you live in Gainesville, you should get your letter today. Mail is usually next day in the same...

    gatormommy replied to CarmenMarie's topic in Florida Nursing

    Ugh!!!!! My strategy for the waiting game was to avoid this site, but I couldn't resist a peek. I wish I had been here to share the emotional roller coaster. I've also been taking dev psych, it's...

  11. recent college grad with a cum 2.8 GPA

    gatormommy replied to happyfeet22's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Does your cc offer a nursing program? With your GPA I would suggest staying at the cc level and get your ASN. I had a 3.1 GPA and tried to get into a BSN nursing program but the advisor pretty much...

    gatormommy replied to CarmenMarie's topic in Florida Nursing

    Don't worry about the age thing, I turn 36 at the end of this month. I want to be a CRNA so I understand the time crunch, but you can only go as fast as things go. I couldn't take the full gpa points...

    gatormommy replied to CarmenMarie's topic in Florida Nursing

    I just wanted to post an update: I finally finished my volunteer hours and turned those in yesterday, so now I guess I just wait some more;) LittleBirdie- I will have 74 pts, I've had all the pre-reqs...

    gatormommy replied to CarmenMarie's topic in Florida Nursing

    Thanks christyness for all your help. My problem was that I needed to volunteer somewhere that would let me take my 4 month old. I finally just asked my church if they needed any help, because...

  17. Just Rejected From Nursing School - Most Ridiculous Admissions Office

    gatormommy replied to guest_57352's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think what syberianpuppy is trying to say is that a gpa from an ivy league school should be worth more or 'weighted.' Kinda like the difference between an honors gpa and a regular gpa. The classes...

  18. Tired of Pre-Reqs

    gatormommy replied to DarkBluePhoenix's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I hear ya. I have a similar situation. I'm going for my ASN. Our acceptance is based on a point system. In my case I have all my pre-reqs done, I've taken the entrance exam, and I have a high gpa,...

  19. Santa Fe 2011 ASN Hopeful???

    gatormommy replied to gatormommy's topic in Florida Nursing

    I have turned my app already. It happened so fast. I didn't plan on turning it in the same day I took the test. So after your test you go to the advisor's office and you wait to see an advisor....

    gatormommy replied to CarmenMarie's topic in Florida Nursing

    I usually see ****. At the group advisement, ***** was the one who wanted to have a look. If there are no appointments how do I see just *****? I have an AS in Medical Assisting, so I was thinking...

  22. Kaplan Nursing Entrance Exam

    gatormommy replied to bonnevie13's topic in School, College Programs

    jenneffere That makes sense. I was so nervous I just said the heck with it and did the decimals on paper. How does the test calculate critical thinking. I didn't have to take the entire test. I...

  23. Kaplan Nursing Entrance Exam

    gatormommy replied to bonnevie13's topic in School, College Programs

    I was freaked about this test too. Before I say anything I have to let you know that my school only counts the reading and math portion of the test. I thought the reading was easier than the study...
