Spoke to the nursing director over the RN-BSN class today at u of m. Since I was a student at U of M and I am currently a nurse, it would only take me 2-3 semesters. 2 if I do full time, 3 would be part time. Not to mention, all including health assessment is online. UT states that classes are in 10 week sessions within the fall and spring semester and 7 weeks in summer. You are also required to show up one day a week. I like U of M flexability but I want the UT background.

I got into both UTHSC and U of M but for the RN-BSN route. I'm trying to figure out which school would be best. I wanted to know if anyone has been to either school. I'm just needing more info on both.

There are some programs that do a CNA to RN transition, depending on where you live. You also have the option of just getting an associates or bachelors degree. What major city do you live in?

I would also check out Hogan's NCLEX-RN book. I used the CD and found out that some of the questions from Hogan were also as equally as hard as HESI. Always think "What will kill my patient first?" Also, Learn those lab values that are found in the back of the HESI book. Good luck! If you get flustered, stop and take a deep breath and try to read the questions calmly. Exit HESI is scary but you will be okay. Just try to do practice questions that are as equally as hard and re-test yourself by using the HESI practice exams.

With HESI, you usually get the score right after you take your exam.

This helped me a lot but I have some questions. Does UTHSC accept other nursing classes that you have taken? I withdrew from Baptist, in good standing, due to medical leave. ALSO, do you receive a bachelor's degree of nursing as well as a masters? Just curious because some schools can give you a bachelor's and masters, while others only give you the masters. Finally, How did you and your graduating class do? What is the percentage of people who have passed?
