No, my husband is also a nurse.

Well my fiance interviewed on 8W (Neuro step down) in October, said the experience was wonderful. He was offered the job 2 days after interview, started in January, and is loving his preceptorship..

I took nclex on January 2nd and noticed this as well. In school, as well as the ATI live review, we were assured both names would be given, and this is how test questions were structured. I can understand not giving both names for some drugs (I.e. be...

Tell me about a time you gave excellent customer service. How would your instructors describe you. Where do you see yourself in 3-5 years. What will you offer as an employee. What do you expect from us as managers. Interview started casual, "tell me ...

Turned out great! I got the call today that I got the job in medicine ICU. I interviewed the day after you (Friday) and the MICU recruiter went out of town ALL last week so I wasn't contacted until today - I was fearing the worse because it rarely ...

Same to you! Let me know how things turn out.

I got a MICU interview as well, next Friday the 15th...

For a SNIP position, yes. Not for a regular clinical nurse 1 position though.

Good luck to all of you! I graduate from MUSC in December and have enjoyed the program. You'll get a great education.

This is a pretty active thread...glad to see that! I am actually a current student and will be graduating from MUSC with my BSN December 7. please let me know of any help or to tips I can provide! Congrats to all those beginning the program soon..hop...

95-100 = A 85-94 = B 75-84 = C Good thing about it is that you can get different 'levels' of B's and C's (i.e. a 94 B = 3.9 GPA, a 93 B = 3.8, etc.) so this stringent grading system doesn't absolutely kill your GPA. You must have a 75% exam average...

Hi chnc13..Personally, that much driving each day would really get to me, but I think it depends on the person. I can tell you that on nights when you're up until 1 or 2 (or 3!) doing meds and careplans, you'll really wish you lived closer because sl...

Congratulations to all accepted and chosen as alternates. The program is very competitive so that is a great accomplishment. I have classmates that applied multiple times before being accepted so for those who didn't get in this time around, try ag...

Orientation is 20-23rd of August. Class officially begins on the 24th (next Friday). I'm in South Carolina.

Oooh - waiting, the most frustrating part! I hope everyone gets into their program of their choice. Can't believe I'll be starting my four semester accelerated BSN on the 20th! Good luck everyone.

Hey misty! If you read the info carefully, it states that MUSC has a partnership with a clinic that offers the titers at a significantly reduced rate. I believe it says you can get the first 5 shots for only $80 or all 6 for only $100. I'm pretty su...

Thanks for all the info EmtDD! Anything else you can offer up would be great. Do you like the professors? How are the tests? - is it really hard to make high grades? How much out of class studying do you actually have to do each week?

I also think I will be going to another school. I'm not completely sure yet - wanted to wait until at least end of May before I officially told them no but I also want to be considerate for those who are still desiring to be accepted to the program....

How do you like the program so far? What's the biggest challenge in the program so far, in your opinion? Is it the time management factor, or is the subject matter inherently difficult? Have you guys started your clinicals yet?

2b: Im 2 posts shy of being able to private message..I think everything you asked me can be found in the posts I wrote around the middle of the thread. If there's anything I missed, please let me know!

I'm in Hanahan. I'm thinking she meant they'll be sending them this coming Monday. Oh she also said there's a very important orientation on June 8th, just in case you get in. Good luck!

I don't have enough posts to private message yet but yeah. Call Monday - ****. She can tell you right away if you're in. She said they mailed the letters Monday but I don't think that's true because I live right in the area and would have received...

Laflaca, Funny..they "lost" my FAFSA also. Turns out they had it all along but she said something about it not downloading for some reason. I was told to provide her with the DRN (a number they attach to each FAFSA application) and once I gave that...

Don't be hesitant about asking questions about funding! It's a very important subject matter unfortunately. All of us, from the summer 2011 cohort that chose to go to Duke received/will receive 21k plus a $250 monthly stipend during the last semeste...

I actually wish they(MADIN) considered those things. It would make sense that those with higher need, better grades, etc. should get more funding. But they just divide the amount of funding they have available by the number of scholars. There are ...
