1. Some ideas about clothes

   ellefree replied to Cobweb's topic in General Nursing

   I can't check where you are located because I'm on my phone. But a nice cropped blazer or just a generalnot-a-suitjacket type of blazer is very popular in interviews these days. I have had friends grab some plus sized interview friendly/work wear f...

   ellefree replied to TobeNursey's topic in CA Programs

   I got an early acceptance to my college of choice for my back-up (the RPN program). I ended up with a 97% and an 87% for my pre-reqs by mid-terms so I will find out about my BScN application in two weeks. I can't wait!

6. the "mean girls" of nursing school

   ellefree replied to loveoutloud's topic in General Students

   Wow your class is 40% male?! I haven't heard of a group that high, but I mean that in a good way. I know I'm only with half a dozen guys and they are totally the opposite - they help each other out as much as possible and exclude most of the girls....

7. the "mean girls" of nursing school

   ellefree replied to loveoutloud's topic in General Students

   Meriwhen - I think the mean element of the group was actually the one "queen bee". The other girls were actually just kind of dumb and ditzy! Either way, I think she referred to the group and didn't actually say that she had a bunch of really mean ...

8. the "mean girls" of nursing school

   ellefree replied to loveoutloud's topic in General Students

   I would just like to mention that I don't think the OP is calling the girls mean people. So before you turn it around and call her mean, I believe she is referring to the move "Mean Girls". The movie had a clique of three girls very pretty girls wh...

    ellefree replied to TobeNursey's topic in CA Programs

    My college of choice requires a 3.5 minimum from the same school's pre nursing program (in reference the the last sentence of the above post). I think the odds are stacked against you the second you do not enroll in nursing straight from highschool, ...

11. Waiting game!

    ellefree replied to RNhopeful21's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I feel ya!! I applied the first week I could in November and won't hear anything until February. My marks are very good so I have the confidence that I'll get in, but in the meanwhile I'm hoping that there were no technical difficulties and that my...

    ellefree replied to sweets21's topic in CA Programs

    That's what I'm thinking! Should be a piece of cake.

13. George Brown September 2012

    ellefree replied to sweets21's topic in CA Programs

    Possibly. I think any time you remove the re-add George Brown they send you an application package. Within a few weeks of applying though you should get one, the letter said it is to be completed by any successful applicant that is not currently en...

    ellefree replied to sweets21's topic in CA Programs

    I applied to George Brown as a third choice after the colleges in my city. I recieved a package in the mail from them mid-december, about two weeks after applying, asking me to submit a supplementary form on their website about experience, education...

15. Do I stand any chance of getting in?

    ellefree replied to 001000110's topic in International

    Like I said, many colleges require you to take a pre nursing program if you have been out of high school for more than a certain number of years. Just speaking from experience, there are friends of mine in my program that are 21 and had to take pre ...
