  1. Brookhaven Nursing Program 2012 Class

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to jmiarn1029's topic in Texas Nursing

    Hey y'all - I was looking up BSN pre-reqs for different schools, deciding if I should take any flex classes this semester and found this article on UTA's RN-BSN program :)...

  2. Brookhaven Nursing Program 2012 Class

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to jmiarn1029's topic in Texas Nursing

    Hmm interesting... I know that Brookhaven has a similar contract with Tech right now, and El Centro has one with UTA. I think Collin County's school they're contracted to is TWU. I was planning on...

  3. Top three patient complaints?

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to Anna Flaxis's topic in General Nursing

    That Tech game comment screams of Texas :) could've been UT, A&M, Tech, take your pick... those dudes are WATCHING that game if they have to bring the IV with

  4. Brookhaven Nursing Program 2012 Class

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to jmiarn1029's topic in Texas Nursing

    No, I don't think they will unless they are very busy with other things. In my mind, I'm picturing a big spreadsheet w/applicants' names and points, then they just add the interview points and sort...

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to jmiarn1029's topic in Texas Nursing

    Thank you for being brave and calling! At least that's good to know that they'll send it out sooner if they

  6. Brookhaven Nursing Program 2012 Class

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to jmiarn1029's topic in Texas Nursing

    I agree - for the most part, everyone was supportive even though technically we are competing, so that was nice. We all shared our points except one girl who didn't know how many she had... seemed...

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to jmiarn1029's topic in Texas Nursing

    Haha that is hilarious! I had a dream like 6 months ago about having to start an IV... not the only dream I've had about this either! No hubby yet, so God only knows what all I've been saying in my...

    Good luck to those of you that have interviews this

  9. Microbiology and Anatomy together?

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to theviolinist's topic in General Students

    I don't think you're crazy at all! In fact, I love learning about 2 interconnected topics at the same time - I think the two will complement each other

  10. Is there dissection in A&P or other science classes?

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

    Just a sidenote - I took Anatomy in high school (not sure if there was a Physiology portion) and we did have to do some dissection. And yes it does

  11. Is there dissection in A&P or other science classes?

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

    What school? I took Applied A&P online and we used "virtual" cadavers - we had access to a site (I actually bought the DVD, it was cheaper) where we could go through all the different layers,...

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to jmiarn1029's topic in Texas Nursing

    A girl in my group said 30.65 was the lowest that got an interview (I know someone who was right at 30 and didn't get one). Thanks for the tip on the on free kindle books - I downloaded a ton...

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to jmiarn1029's topic in Texas Nursing

    I think this time after the interview is worse than before - now I'm super worried about how I did and whether or not I'll get

  14. Nursing School Must Haves??

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to Servingshots's topic in General Students

    I'm looking for already hole-punched index cards... where can I find them? I have looked an Amazon but the description looks a little strange, plus the item is like 99 cents plus several dollars for...

  15. The Hidden Costs of Nursing School

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to *4!#6's topic in General Students

    FYI: yahoo had a great video the other day about how to save money on printing (which fonts to use, where to buy or refill ink cartridges)... may help y'all save some

  16. Hypothyroidism & Nursing School?

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to sugarmagnoliaRN's topic in General Students

    Ok I know this thread is old but I've gotta ask y'all for some advice! I'm up to 100 mcg now, but my skin is still dry - specifically my hands. They have been getting so dry that they crack &...

  17. Brookhaven Nursing Program 2012 Class

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to jmiarn1029's topic in Texas Nursing

    Mia - I did get there early but not really early enough to talk to many of the 2:00 people. I was in the blue sweater and borrowed jacket that didn't really fit right (haha!) Escape - how did you know...

  18. Brookhaven Nursing Program 2012 Class

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to jmiarn1029's topic in Texas Nursing

    No, they didn't say anything after they asked us the questions. We may be able to ask AC, she seems like she's pretty forthcoming with information so she might be happy to tell

    :) Thank

  20. Brookhaven Nursing Program 2012 Class

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to jmiarn1029's topic in Texas Nursing

    Mine went okay... they were situational questions, e.g. "tell me about a time when..." I wasn't prepared! I think I probably got around a 3 out of 5 points... so it could have gone better. I won't be...

  21. Brookhaven Nursing Program 2012 Class

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to jmiarn1029's topic in Texas Nursing

    Escape - I think I was sitting next to you in the lab before interviews!! I didn't realize it until I left and was thinking about what you said about being locked out when you took the HESI. Then I...

  22. Anyone waiting on Acceptance/Rejection Letter '2012

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

    Man, that's rough! At least mid-November is only a couple of weeks

  23. Anyone waiting on Acceptance/Rejection Letter '2012

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

    I totally understand! That's crazy that they just use one thing! My school originally used a points system, combining pre-req GPA, HESI score, and "support courses" completed (e.g. pharm, patho, etc)...
