    troop949 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Well, I tried emailing her, but she replied that I should call her instead. So I called her yesterday, but I had to leave a voicemail. Hopefully, she'll call me back today. Whatever information I...

    troop949 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    OrgSync is the website where you can find all the student organizations at Georgia State. SON = School of Nursing (technically, that would be BFLSON = Byrdine F. Lewis School of Nursing, but that's a...

  3. Can you be a PHN if you are a new grad?

    troop949 replied to mybabies2000's topic in Public, Community Health

    From what I've seen on job postings here in Georgia, you need 5 years experience as an RN or you can have a master's in PH plus 1 year RN

    Oh cool, kel3! I just signed up for the OrgSync group. I had been intending to find the group earlier in the semester though, so I feel like I'm late to the party, LOL. I'll PM you. BTW, I plan on...

    I hope you get some good news soon, kuhelski. I still can't believe you were waitlisted twice! :-/ What was it about the GPC program that didn't appeal to you? How do you expect GSU to be...

    troop949 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I live in Henry County, just south of the DeKalb County line. I actually used to work at CDC, right next to Emory, up until last December. And, like I said, I went to Emory, so I'm very familiar...

    troop949 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I agree that GPC's program would probably have a more flexible schedule than Mercer. But ultimately, you have to decide what's best for you and your situation. Kinda makes me wish I had applied to...

    troop949 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    @Brazilian nurse: You definitely have some great options to fall back on. Now would be the time for you to consider the differences in the programs @ GPC and Mercer. They are both 2 yrs., but you'll...

  11. GSU Fall 2012

    troop949 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    @hcs4291, I agree that your stats should have had you accepted, if not higher on the WL. I can't remember if you said this earlier in the thread or not, but have you thought about retaking the TEAS?...

    OK, so apparently today was wait list day. C'mon all you "guest users", let us know if you've heard

    troop949 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Hey, you never know Brazilian nurse...don't count out GSU just yet. Didn't you also apply to another school? Is GSU your 1st choice? BTW, it's the only school I applied

  14. GSU Fall 2012

    troop949 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Hey everyone! I got my wait list letter today. I'm #4 on the wait list for ACE. But you know what? I'm feeling pretty good about actually being accepted at some point. I'm basically going to...

  15. GSU Fall 2012

    troop949 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Thanks kuhelski. Bad news for me, though. I'm terrible about answering my phone! I almost always miss calls because I don't have my phone physically on me at all times, or my hands are busy (I have...

    troop949 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    $700 for ATI fees? Good gravy! :doh:I'm sure that includes whatever assessments/exams we have to take while in school, but not the NCLEX, right? We'll make it work, but yeah, nothing like starting...

    troop949 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I won't have to go to the student clinic, but I seriously do need to make an appointment with my PCP for a check up and to get my titers done. I'm way overdue for a comprehensive exam anyway -...

    troop949 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Thanks for that tip, kyuu. Do you have to take pharmacology in the 1st semester? It definitely seems like it would be a tough class. Lots of biochem, cell bio, and physiology involved. I haven't...

  22. GSU Fall 2012

    troop949 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    troop949 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I think all we would be able to take is the nutrition class. I thought about taking it, but I'm already taking 3 pre-reqs I *NEED* to complete before fall, and I didn't want to have an intense course...
