I believe there was someone who said they were an alternate and they had 24 points. I had 27....

From my past 3 years of experience going to CSN, only one thing is certain... Nothing ever stays the same. There are always things that change. :)

Care plans are taught/learned all throughout the semester. In my opinion, the class isn't that important to take if you have the math skills already. You practice the nursing care plans in clinical... You will be fine even if you don't take the class...

They said the two orientation dates are an all day event. She told me they run from 8 till 3 most likely.... I am planning on going to get my packet first thing so I can go on with our Halloween plans with the kids. :)

Yeah, it does but it is what it is...

First semester classes won't be available for registration till after second orientation. Even Pharm was not available till after second orientation because everything is based on which nurs101 class you take since your nurs 101 dictates most of your...

You have to go to the first orientation and then at second orientation is when you can sign up for classes. They make you draw a number when you arrive at the second orientation and then you go in that order to sign up for classes. The classes are cl...

Enjoy the weekend peeps! The real battle awaits come Jan!

Got the call this morning about an hour ago but didn't have time to get on line and post till now. Full time... Congrats to everyone!!!

Correction, I was looking back on my posts from when I got the acceptance and I posted that I got the call around 3pm. Oh man, I am so nervous!!

Wow! You all are really giving me so much info. I haven't been on here for a day and there are like 3 more pages of conversations. LOL I just wanna say that only the ones that get in get a phone call. If you didn't make it in, you get a letter in the...

OMG! You guys have to stop.... I think I'm getting ulcers from all the anxiety. Good news, bad news, uncertain news.... I am soooooo going nuts!

I'm so nervous I think I am going to throw up. Ugh.... I wish November was already here.....

I would not count on next week only because every semester is different. :) That said, it would be awesome if they made the calls next week. The dosage calculation test is not super hard unless you just don't understand algebra. That test is given ...

That really bites! I was not getting my hopes up but was secretly hoping to get a call earlier than the end of the month. Yikes!

That is what I had done the first time I got in. That is exactly what you will need. :)

Nothing is for certain and therefore, you have a good reason to be anxious. I mean this for all students and not just you. :) But the great thing is that there is only a few more weeks before they start calling the students. Keep your fingers crosse...

Just letting you know, they do go over what you need to know before they make you take the dosage calculation test. If you can do algebra, you can do the dosage calculation test. I am not saying it's easy...I am just saying they won't make you take t...

Try amazon and eBay before you pay full price for books. I would also recommend renting your books. :). Way cheaper that way!

You should never feel too old. Challenges come all through out life in all different measures. What would life be without new beginnings and adventures? Go for it and good luck! :)

The book list is given at the new student orientation once you hear that you made it through. It probably wont be till some time in Nov. I would just go on line and look up nursing theory but without the actual book that they tell you to buy, it will...

Hey everyone. I am a second time applicant to the nursing program. I withdrew in Oct 2011 due to spousal deployment but the time has come to finish what I started. The workload is a lot. I will say that if you can get a head start on reading, you sho...

Is anyone considering the on line lecture for the first semester for nurs 101 and 125?? I see they are offering more on line classes. Any thoughts for anyone who already took the on line class??

did anyone take the on line courses offered for nurs 101 or 125?? I am wondering how the on line courses work and if I would be a good candidate to take the on line class instead of in class. Anyone with any insight, please comment. Thanks.

khvegas, Thanks for all that great info. I am looking forward to it.
