Is it pathetic that I have been on this page ALL morning looking for updates? I have to go to work in a few hours and I have no idea what I'm going to do....I can only check my phone periodically when...

I will try to answer it, but I will probably be at work so who knows. If I wasn't working I would probably be sitting on that couch by the LE office, stalking them and waiting for some official person...

Ok so I called the nursing department and she said the selection committee has met!!! But the department has not yet been notified of the selected applicants. She said calls will go out Thursday or...

mikew702, Did you speak with the LE office or the nursing dept? I got an email from the LE office this afternoon (in response to an email I sent over the weekend) and she said that the selection...
My school uses a point system and I think it's very fair. The points are based on your GPA, how many of the pre-reqs have been completed already, TEAS exam score, work experience and an extra point...

Me too! This has been the longest & worst week of this waiting game thus far. I am so anxious that I am barely sleeping and my stomach is all out of sorts. I hope they call this week. I can't take...
I specifically chose my ADN program because it only requires a specific health sciences math involving dosage calculations rather than traditional algebra because I couldn't pass the intermediate...

Good job with not obsessing! I can't say the same for myself. I still freak out every time I hear my phone ring, even though there is little chance that we will hear this week! I had my titers done...

I've been in Zion for 2 days and I was going crazy with no internet....there's so much new information!!! Well I guess we will all have to continue to be patient! It will be worth it in the end

Now I'm even more anxious! Did they give any indication of how many more apps they took in? Part of me is thinking that since they never said anything on the website that there won't be many more...

I was paranoid (or shall I say my paranoia began and never ended) over the summer about turning in my application too early and I stumbled upon this site and I've been hooked ever since. I check for...

I had blood titers done showing my immunity to everything including Hep B...do you think that will suffice? Hopefully all I will need to get is the 2 step TB. I had my TdaP done this year so I'm ok...

I found some great deals on amazon! The book I used in math 100b was under a dollar with free shipping. It's an old edition but when I used it I got a B in the class without even trying much....

Welcome! I completed all of my nursing prerequisites at csn and there were people of all ages in all of my classes. Please don't be discouraged about your age. You probably have more wisdom, drive and...

I'll still get the normal books that they require but I figured I can just get a cheap book to review to keep my mind off of my pending application. I'm not taking any classes this semester so I'm...

What is the name/edition of your pharmacology book? I found a 7th edition of the fundamentals book on amazon for like $8. Maybe I can find a cheap pharm book as well.
I went about 5 years ago and I have been dying to go again. My friends & family were too "grossed out" to go so I went by myself and I found myself talking to many strangers about everything. Now...
I will be paying for school myself. I have been working full-time as a certified pharmacy technician for 6 years and I have been able to save a bit for nursing school. Luckily my tuition for my ADN...

Thanks for your input! Oct 15 is just wishful thinking. Reality then kicks in and I realize that it probably won't be till the end of the month. When do they give you an official book list? I would...
