I'm interested in obtaining more information about the program from former students before making a financial investment. How is the training and clinical portion? How is the job search process with student services? When looking online it stated tha...
Do they offer the pre requisites there or do you have to take them elsewhere. I'm interested in bridging over to RN but my school isn't credit based. We don't take BIO or CHEM. any info would be greatly appreciated :-)
I began nursing school in September and I must say I'm unsure of my ability to see this through. I've worked really hard to get to where I am taking nearly a year to do so. I just have a lot bearing down on me all of a sudden and I don't feel like I'...

There's only math, reading, vocabulary on the cnet. You can order the study guide from the cnet nurse website. The math is pretty basic there's no trigonometry or geometry. Just fractions, decimals and stuff like that. The study guide really helps wh...

One thing that brings me comfort is knowing that no one knows it all no matter how smart they may be. I had one in my prep class who was so much smarter than everyone else yet she failed both entrance exams after prep. Good thing no one feed off of a...

I'm having an issue myself. I actually need to work and I can only realistically do this on weekends since my school schedule will be 8-4 M-F. I still have my responsibilities at home that can't be neglected. I'll leave it in the hands of the divine ...

That's great to hear :-) you should invest in a Teas study guide, it helped me a lot. I can't make any recommendations about the compass I've never taken that one before. Best of luck to you :-)

No problem. Keep in mind that since AMG hasn't been around very long (I believe a year or two) you would have to cover your tuition with loans since they don't qualify to be paid with financial aid yet. When I called earlier this year I was also info...

Same problem. I practiced for days thinking I was going to actually be interviewed and it was more of a information session telling me everything I already knew about the program. The interviewer didn't seem to know anything about when the decision w...

I'm still waiting to interview with HHC next month for the scholarship. If anyone has interviewed with HHC can you tell me if the interview is difficult? I've been practicing going over what they may ask me.
darkreign271 replied to mslello's topic in New York
I have and it really wasn't much of an interview. They just go over your paperwork (which is a lot) to make sure everything is completed accurately. The writing sample was 3 paragraphs detailing why you wanted to be a nurse and why you choose that sc...
