  1. CSN RN Fall 2014

    I would recommend that you work overtime to make extra money, and take a vacation (once you know your orientation and advisor dates - you can't miss those under any circumstances) and spend time with...
  2. How to pass N-clex

    Well that was uncalled
  3. ATI Fundamentals

    I'm sure the ATI exam questions come straight out of the ATI book but for regular exams, I've found on more than one occasion that the ATI book contradicts our text so I don't care to use
  4. ATI Fundamentals

    My school doesn't require a certain level, they just give a certain amount of points based on which level you achieve. They're usually worth 10% of your overall grade in the course and if you score a...
  5. ATI Fundamentals

    I wouldn't call them hard but I did worse on the ati's compared to regular lecture exams. I scored a 61.7 in peds (level 1) when I'm averaging an 88 in the class and a 75 (level 2) in OB when I'm...
  6. ATI Fundamentals

    I can't remember how many were on funds because that was a year ago and the 2010 version. I just took the 2013 Peds and OB ati's and they were both 70 questions but only 60 were
  7. How old were you when you started nursing school?

    It's true! There's a girl in my class who is only 18. Patients ask if she's old enough to
  8. How old were you when you started nursing school?

    I was 27 when I started. I'll be 29 when I graduate :) I'm glad I waited until I was older. I could not imagine my 18 year old fresh out of high school punk self handling this! I was way too...
  9. ATI 2013 cutoff scores

    This is exactly what I was looking for! Where did you find it?
  10. CSN RN Fall 2014

    I would definitely go to the signing! I don't trust them to mail
  11. ATI 2013 cutoff scores

    Thanks for your reply! But I think I was a little unclear about what I'm looking for. What I have is this: and what I'm looking for is the 2013 version. It seems as though the cutoff scores for each...
  12. CSN RN Fall 2014

    You can try to fight it but I honestly don't think it will do much. They are quite strict with the rules for both the application and the actual program. It's tough to fight anything that's a printed...
  13. Nasty virus and upcoming NICU rotation!

    I would discuss it with your instructor in addition to wearing a mask. I was recently ill with something similar on my scheduled pediatric oncology rotation and I was supposed to care for a cancer...
  14. CSN RN Fall 2014

    I have come to realize that CSN makes the process of everything too complicated. It's not the material that's difficult with their program, it's the convoluted and backwards way that CSN insists on...
  15. CSN RN Fall 2014

    Yeah I'm thinking there was some kind of problem. There is no reason why you wouldn't be
  16. CSN RN Fall 2014

    CNA will definitely give you great
  17. CSN RN Fall 2014

    I'm actually in 3rd semester. Back when I applied I had 28 points but they changed the point system with the math class
  18. CSN RN Fall 2014

    Lab instructor for what? Are you in the CNA
  19. CSN RN Fall 2014

    Yeah I can understand that you would be discouraged. There has to be a reason why you weren't
  20. CSN RN Fall 2014

    I would call and find out why you didn't get in. Some people on this thread had way less points than you did. I'm not sure what the cutoff is
  21. ATI Fundamentals

    I agree! The medsurg ati book is crazy! I don't understand who has the time to read that on top of all of their other
  22. CSN RN Fall 2014

    If you make a fb page, just make sure it is a closed group with one or two people as administrator to add people that they see fit. This is so you don't have a bunch of randoms on the page that don't...
  23. CSN RN Fall 2014

    Congrats to those who got in. For the alternates, GO TO THE ORIENTATIONS and stay positive! I know several people that were originally accepted as alternates that will be graduating with me in...
  24. CSN Nursing School Schedule

    Congrats!! For the first semester schedule you will take 2 classes: Nursing 101 Intro and Nursing 125 Pharmacology. 101 has a 3 hour lecture, a 3 hour lab and a 6 hour clinical per week. Pharmacology...
  25. CSN RN Fall 2014

    Congrats everyone!! It takes some time for them to make all of the calls so don't worry. Or you can be like me and call them and ask. I didn't technically get "the call" because I was too impatient...
