  1. ASU: what is the "typical" schedule (Mayo vs Downtown)?

    I didn't clarify but I am at the downtown campus.
  2. ASU: what is the "typical" schedule (Mayo vs Downtown)?

    I can only comment on the first semester (Junior 1) because that is what I have just begun. Classes are M-F starting at 7:30am. M-W-F classes are the theory courses. M & W get out around 1pm. F gets out around 10am (just 1 class on F). T &am...
  3. Arizona State University Junior 1 books

    I had no problem accessing my books.
  4. ASU Junior 1 - scrubs & clinicals

    In the orientation meeting they mentioned that scrubs would be worn in class at times. Does anyone know how often? Also, how soon do we get our clinical schedule? Do we get it for the whole semester or does it change periodically? Any info is ap...
  5. Time stamp 8/10/2012 8:01:45 am anyone else???

    I do not have a source other than what I see going on at hospitals. Hospitals are looking for BSN nurses and the nurses who do not have BSN's are being asked to get that degree. The schools provide trained nurses to fill the market need. If the ne...
  6. Time stamp 8/10/2012 8:01:45 am anyone else???

    My time stamp is 6/10/2011 at 8:02:48 am.
  7. GCU question about pre reqs

    I just took it at MCC.
  8. Time stamp 8/10/2012 8:01:45 am anyone else???

    My initial plan was to go through MCC and then bridge to a BSN with ASU. The wait list ****** me off. A "C" student could get into the program before me when I worked my butt off to get "A's". Their system is flawed. I decided to go directly to A...
  9. Time stamp 8/10/2012 8:01:45 am anyone else???

    Start working on a CEP program ASAP. Associates degrees in nursing are being phased out. Soon there will be no spots available to those seeking that degree.
  10. ASU Junior 1 - scrubs & clinicals

    I found out that scrubs will be worn on Lab days and at Clinicals only. The first day of classes is a lab day but scrubs will not be worn on that day. The first day will be orientation and info on clinicals. I also found out that in the first seme...
  11. Need help with fall pre-reqs

    We did use SPSS in our class but it was minimal. You just needed to understand how to read the results. The times we had to input data was just to get us familiar with the program and the process.
  12. Need help with fall pre-reqs

    Do HCR 210. The class is a breeze and you already have a full load.
  13. Who's getting EXCITED!!??

    I start on the 23rd of August. It seems like time is standing still and I can't wait for it to begin! I had to have all the CPR and shots done just to apply so all I get to do is sit and wait (and slowly go insane)!
  14. Arizona State University Junior 1 books

    I went to the scrub store and they recommended that I only get one set of scrubs to start. You can always get more if needed down the road. I also got a stethoscope there for much cheaper than what ASU was selling them for. I chose an MDF over the...
  15. ASU Fall 2012

    I have purchased my scrubs and stethoscope, but I am having a hard time finding white shoes. Do they have to be 100% white or can there be a little color on them? Also, what do you think of the online book option? I have never done online books bef...
  16. ASU or GCU? Which school is better?

    I studied both programs closely. ASU does have a much higher ranking (21st vs 435th). GCU gives you more clinical hours but their program is a full semester longer than ASU so that makes sense. ASU has a reputation among hospital nurses as being b...
  17. Arizona State University Junior 1 books

    I am also starting in August at the Downtown campus. I have decided to get the online books because they are searchable and I don't have to carry them around.
  18. Critical Requirements for the BSN program of ASU

    All you need are the courses listed on the BSN checklist. Nothing more. Here is the link. http://nursingandhealth.asu.edu/files/programs/nursing/undergraduate/bsn/pos.pdf
  19. Rn vs bsn hiring critera

    From what I understand, if you get a degree from Chamberlin, and then later decide to go to ASU or UofA to get your masters degree, you will not be able to do so with a degree from Chamberlin because it will not be recognized. Am I wrong? It would...
  20. Rn vs bsn hiring critera

    She was an actual professor.
  21. Rn vs bsn hiring critera

    One of my teachers last semester also taught at Chamberlin and she informed me of their accreditation status. Maybe she was referring to another accreditation that they lack?
  22. Rn vs bsn hiring critera

    ASU has no waiting list, it is competitive. Yes, your gpa needs to be closer to a 3.8 to be considered. I have a 4.0 selective gpa with ASU. CEP is the Concurrent Enrollment Program. You bypass the wait list and start the block at the community ...
  23. Rn vs bsn hiring critera

    I would look into GCU, ASU or the CEP programs that the community colleges offer before I went to a private school and forked over $70,000 for a BSN that may or may not let you progress to a masters or NP later. I am 39 and just finished my pre's. ...
  24. ASU pre licensure BSN...is it enough??

    I was accepted into the Fall 2012 program. My select GPA was 4.0 and my teas score was 87.3. From what I understand, it is going to be harder and harder to enter the ASU program because they are holding slots for freshmen as they enter ASU. If they...
  25. Bio 156 Rio Salado

    I ended up with a 95% in the class. Study previous quizzes and you should outline each of the essay questions because those exact questions are on the test. I also completed the questions at the end of the chapter each week. It was a tough course....
