  1. Brookhaven Nursing Program 2012 Class

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to jmiarn1029's topic in Texas Nursing

    Same here... but at least we're not all answering the same questions, that's the part that really had me worried. You'll at least have my unspoken support!

  2. Brookhaven Nursing Program 2012 Class

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to jmiarn1029's topic in Texas Nursing

    I wonder why we haven't heard from anyone with lower than ~ 32 points... it's making me pretty nervous about what the point cutoff was for

    :yeah:I totally agree! Even if I do like to sit down with some chick fil a in the evening, the morning time is when I want some healthy whole

  7. Almost Fainted in the OR Twice!!

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to gymnut's topic in General Nursing

    This may seem labor-intensive, but when I had time to make breakfast I'd have 4 egg whites & 1 whole egg, scrambled with cheese and/or salsa, toast w/peanut butter, and some fruit. It's healthy...

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to playmaker2008's topic in First Year After Licensure

  9. Community College Admission Interviews?

    sugarmagnoliaRN posted a topic in General Students

    I know there have been a few threads about interviews (and they have been helpful) but does anyone have any experience with interviews for ADN programs? I'm wondering how difficult the questions will...

  10. Community College Admission Interviews?

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to sugarmagnoliaRN's topic in General Students

    Thanks for sharing your experience! I am thinking our interview will be similar to this. I will be going there right from work so dressing professionally shouldn't be a problem! :) Thanks again for...

  11. Anyone waiting on Acceptance/Rejection Letter '2012

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to PedsHopeful's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Applied to 2 schools, waiting anxiously to hear from each! One I'll (most likely) have an interview for next week, then hear mid-November... the other is less exact with their timeframe, but they said...

  12. Baylor Fastbacc - Dallas

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to luvlimandee's topic in Texas Nursing

    Sorry, just seeing this now but yes I was there! I considered TCU also but honestly, I'm not sure I'll be able to afford Baylor if I get in. @ Ranibu: the interview was replaced by an information...

  13. Community College Admission Interviews?

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to sugarmagnoliaRN's topic in General Students

    Thanks y'all! I have been looking up interview questions and what not, so I know that'll help. I am mostly worried about some of the hypothetical questions I've seen on here... I'm wondering if anyone...

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to sugarmagnoliaRN's topic in General Students

    Anyone?

  15. Baylor Fastbacc - Dallas

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to luvlimandee's topic in Texas Nursing

    When I met with an advisor there, she told me the GPA of the fastbacc applicants who get in is around 3.5. I don't know an exact number for the HESI, but she said they focus mainly on the math &...

  16. How realistic is this...

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to Kandake's topic in General Students

    Not sure if anyone mentioned this - but CA and NY are two places where it's more difficult to find a nursing job right

  17. Brookhaven Hopefuls!!!!!

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to KaseyP's topic in Texas Nursing

    92 is still a great HESI score! I have 34 points total. I know last semester the cutoff was around 31.something so I think you'll be good with 32 :) I think the interview will change things around a...

  18. Brookhaven Hopefuls!!!!!

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to KaseyP's topic in Texas Nursing

    I also applied to Baylor's fastbacc program (I have a Bachelor's degree) and I'm considering applying to TWU's weekend program. I'm most optimistic about Brookhaven, but my financial aid doesn't seem...

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to KaseyP's topic in Texas Nursing

    oh and they posted some info on the website re: the interview process... apparently they will be held november 1-4. ac told me it would probably be a group interview (5 or 6 students with a few...

  20. Brookhaven Hopefuls!!!!!

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to KaseyP's topic in Texas Nursing

    Hey Kasey, I'm applying too! And definitely some major nail biting going on over here too, I'm ready to know if I got in or not! There are actually 2 other threads for this year's applicants:...

  21. Stafford Loans with a previous degree?

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to sugarmagnoliaRN's topic in General Students

    Yeah I gotcha. Luckily my program requires us to take almost all our non-nursing classes before we apply, otherwise there's no way we'd get accepted. So I'll just have nursing lecture/lab, clinical,...

  22. Stafford Loans with a previous degree?

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to sugarmagnoliaRN's topic in General Students

    My school's appeal process for this is no longer in place their financial aid office is severely backed up (there was an article about it on the front page of the Dallas Morning News today) so I can...

  23. Stafford Loans with a previous degree?

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to sugarmagnoliaRN's topic in General Students

    I agree... the thing that's going to be hard though is paying all my bills and being able to get all my work done. This summer I worked full time and did 15 hours of pre-reqs (including 2 lab...

  24. Stafford Loans with a previous degree?

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to sugarmagnoliaRN's topic in General Students

    Yes, the other school I applied to is a very intense ABSN program. It's also at a very expensive private university... it would be great to go there but I'm not sure I could afford the loan payments...

  25. Stafford Loans with a previous degree?

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to sugarmagnoliaRN's topic in General Students

    Thanks for the replies y'all! I'm thinking maybe only certain schools have this SAP requirement... It looks like I won't be eligible (but MAN it's impossible to get anyone on the phone from my...
