Mine is 9.45 what is an alternate anyway? will an alternate only fight against other alternate or against admitted too? I figured not participating in this forum for the last 3 weeks was a good idea lol. I had no idea when they would send emails. I thought it would be a month after the deadline so I was looking forward to mid march. Getting an email today was a bit surprising to me.

I got an email today for interview as well. Im so glad now. I attended the information section back in september. And they told me it's not an "interview". they won't ask you why you want to be a nurse or something like that. They will have us gather around and do some activity like introduce or something. Im not sure. But it's not a real interview. ANyone with experience can tell us what to expect? does it mean we are accepted to the program already?? or the "interview" will play a critical part in the process as well? I will call -------------- first thing on monday and ask her about this.

yes Im going to attend the meeting tomorrow for sure but can someone explain me this? I think the math score is the math portion of the TEAS test, but I need some confirmation. oops sorry guys I thought this was CSULB.

hey guys, Im gonna apply for fall 2013 and currently taking my last 2 pre reqs. Im kinda confused about the TEAS test and the general assessment math test. Are they 2 separate tests or the math score is the math portion of the TEAS test? thanks !!

hi everyone, Im going to apply to CSULB and other CSU nursing schools next spring, so I want to study for the TEAS test right now. I wonder how I can prepare the best for it? I know for the general TEAS, I can buy their study guide online. But is it enough? and how about the TEAS math test? thank you

thanks for your advices. But if that is what happens to nursing for now, then I guess other jobs are not any better. I havent searched for "real" nursing jobs because that is useless for now since I wont graduate as a nurse in 3 years. But again, nurse is always in the list ( if not the top) of in-demand healthcare jobs till 2018. I understand you advice, and I truly appreciate it. it can be called a "fallback" as you said. But doesnt everyone do this? life changes so we have to change, too. This is an "allnurses" forum and I actually expected some encouragement. I will talk to a counselor this week and think more about this (sorry for the rant).

hmm for what Ive researched, nursing is always in the list of top high-demand jobs in california. and it is growing. idk how it is when I graduate tho. But life is unpredictable right?

well Im 22 so I dont have much time to decide my career now. My first goal is to go to pharm school, but it requires too much work and effort for me (and I dont have good grades in physics) so I dont follow that path any more. I cant finish my biochem major any soon (need at least 2 more years for a lot of chem courses, and at the moment Im taking pre reqs for nursing school. lucky that pharm school and nursing school have common pre regs). And I will apply to other schools' programs in or even outside CA. Need to do further research on this but can you recommend any good nursing school in /outside CA?

Hello DarkBluePhoenix, thanks for the reply. I will go meet a counselor this monday. So last spring you also applied to the school of nursing as a chem major? did you get accepted? I didnt worry about this until I figured if I need to be a pre-nursing major to apply to the school of nursing. And I decided to work in health care field so I think nursing is suitable for me. oh btw what do you mean by applying to as many programs as possible? you mean I should apply to other nursing programs at other schools right? I know it's impacted and very competitive, but I feel quite confident as well. My grades are very good uptil now and Im trying my best to get all A's for the rest of required courses.

hello all, I transfered to CSULB from OCC last fall and I major in biochem. Now I realize I want to be a nurse and school of nursing in CSULB is my top consideration. So I wonder if I can switch my major from biochem to pre-nursing and then apply, or I can apply with my biochem major? This spring Im taking physio, microbio, o. chem 1. I still have o. chem 2 and biochem which I will take next fall. I will meet a counselor this monday. But Im so worried about this so anyone could answer this? Thanks a lot
