1. MGH Direct-Entry MSN

   halebale replied to halebale's topic in Massachusetts

   Ugh I had a feeling it would be that long! I'm applying to Northeastern, Simmons, and UMASS Grad school of Nursing in Worcester. I was gonna apply to Regis, but I didn't want to take Ethics. =P And I figured 4 schools might just be enough to apply to...

2. Anyone applying to Simmons College Direct Entry MSN Program 2012?

   halebale replied to TillyLaces's topic in Massachusetts

   I'm applying to the Simmons Direct Entry MSN beginning this summer! I'm actually going to the info session tonight! I've already applied to MGH, and I'm applying to Northeastern and UMASS in Worcester. Fortunately the Simmons deadline isn't until Fe...

3. MGH Direct-Entry MSN

   halebale replied to halebale's topic in Massachusetts

   It's been a while since someone posted on this thread. I was wondering, did you guys apply to MGH? I did! I applied for FNP. I also went to the info session, and it seemed like a lot of people apply for the FNP. So eek! Anyone know when we will be he...

4. Northeastern Direct-Entry NP

   halebale replied to kiki617's topic in Massachusetts

   I'm not too sure about this, but it seems like most schools find anything above a 1000 an "acceptable" score. I don't know what NEU's average GRE score is, but my guess is its in the 1000-13000 range. And to your second question, NO. When you take th...

   HI mellzie! Applications for me are kinda at a standstill. I'm taking A&P 2, Microbiology, and Intro to Chem this semester, and then I'm all set to apply for the January 15th deadline. I've been pondering my goal statement for a few months and ne...

   Haha don't thank me! I totally hear you! It really does seem like we're in the same boat, but you have the extra leg up for having your bachelor's in health and human services! did you get that at northeastern too?? Jeez! I have a BA in MUSIC. Like, ...

7. Northeastern Direct-Entry NP

   halebale replied to kiki617's topic in Massachusetts

   Gglove, I hear you!!! I feel the same way, these boards can be very discouraging!! Everybody tells me that I'll definitely get in, but after reading these it seems crazy to me that I'd even be considered!! Your GRE score may not be as bad as you thin...

8. MGH Direct-Entry MSN

   halebale replied to halebale's topic in Massachusetts

   Ah, well good luck! I hope math is your strong suit, because the new GRE was designed to make the math more complex. The verbal is about the same, and they got rid of antonyms thank god, but they added some more weird text completions. That's why I r...

9. MGH Direct-Entry MSN

   halebale replied to halebale's topic in Massachusetts

   How are you able to do that?! All the schools I've looked at for Chem you need to take 2 semesters of Basic (inorganic) before you can take organic! It's so frustrating and I want to avoid that if it's not necessary! I'm doing A&P 2 and microbio ...

    halebale replied to danadana's topic in Massachusetts

    Can anybody offer any insight into the application process for someone who's applying for the next matriculation (2012)? I'm FREAKING OUT! I took the GRE today and got a 610 math 530 verbal. Is that awful? I'm horrible at standardized tests so I'm ho...

    halebale replied to kiki617's topic in Massachusetts

    Hello! I'm not a graduate or student of the program, but I will be applying for the next class, 2012. I just took the GRE today and all I can say is good luck! It was a total mindfreak for me. If you are good at standardized testing then you'll be fi...

12. MGH Direct-Entry MSN

    halebale replied to halebale's topic in Massachusetts

    I didn't know anyone responded to this! Awesome!!! I took the GRE today and being that I suck at standardized testing, I'm relatively satisfied. (Could've done better, could've done worse). What a *****, though! I'm super eager to start applying! It...

    Hi! Is anyone else gearing up to apply to the MGH direct-entry MSN program beginning in 2012? I'm currently completing my pre-reqs at bunker hill community college. I'm also studying for the GRE and will be taking in a few weeks, as well as at the en...
