Good evening! I am looking at applying to USA for the Spring 2021 semester but am torn between the FNP or the dual FNP-ENP program since I am primarily an ED nurse. Does anyone have any insight on the programs overall and how competitive the admissio...

Is anyone applying to USA's dual FNP/ACNP program for summer 2019? I'm a little worried about my GPA since cumulatively it's only a 3.49 and that doesn't sound very competitive when I say it out loud. I have 4 years of total nursing experience with 3...

I am coming up on a year at my first job which I am incredibly happy in and was so lucky to find. It's on a direct observation telemetry floor and has been a great place to learn how to be a nurse and focus on time management but I've always had two ...

I already have my ACLS, it was required on my floor. I'm going to talk to my CRC and see if she has any advice. I'm also trying to find time to get PALS since most of the ER's around here require it within so many months. Do you think it would be to...

I suppose my story isn't much different than someone else's in my position but somehow it feels more tragic when it happens to you... I graduated May 5, 2014 from my ADN program. I began (seriously) studying for the NCLEX about two-three weeks after ...

1. FL 2. 24.04 Base, 2.30-3.25 Night diff. (the differential is still 3-11 &11-7 even though its 12 hr shifts) and 5.00 weekend diff. on top of night diff. 3. 0 experience! New grad, never worked as a Tech and this was the first job I interviewed...

I had my first interview for a RN position on a tele floor at a local hospital that is definitely my first choice of potential employers! Despite natural first interview nerves, I feel like it went well, I stayed composed despite some jitters and am ...

I just recently passed the NCLEX and I am now working on resumes and cover letters for various jobs but this is the basic format & information that I have so far. I am including clinical experiences per the advice of various nurse managers (it'll...

ISBN for Davis book with CD: 978-0803621640 I got it on Amazon for $35.00 and is amazing!

FINALLY! After months of rescheduling due to anxiety and just dreading it, I finally took the NCLEX for the second time on November 20 and passed with 75!! The first time I failed with all 265 questions, near passing in all categories...that was back...

I'm having the same problem. This will be my second time taking the NCLEX, I failed the first time with 265 questions, near passing in all categories. I took Kaplan to prepare for it this time and I'm doing horrible on the Q-trainers, all in the 50s-...

I feel your pain, I had a 4.0 before my first semester. An A is 93-100 B: 86-92 C:80-85 and anything below an 80 is failing. Plus you have to get 80% of possible exam points before anything else even factors in so it's tough, but I kind of understand...

In A&P2 we had to disect a fetal pig...wasn't nearly as bad I was expecting. I took A&P 2 and Micro together over the summer so it's doable, but very stressful. (I just looked at it as preparing me for the stress and workload of nursing schoo...

I applied with 197 and got in! Good luck!

I applied with 197 so you should be good

I'm starting the ADN program at FSCJ in January (just got my acceptance letter today!) and have a few friends already in the program. I've heard nothing but good things about it and it's pretty well respected by the hospitals around here. As far as t...

It won't let me message you on here and I can't figure out what page it is on FB

I'm in!!!! I still can't believe it! :) Can't wait to meet everyone! Congrats everyone!

I applied with 197 and some change. I didn't do as well on the NAT as I wanted. Hopefully 197 will be enough to get me in. *FingersCrossed*Congrats everyone!!

Still waiting on mine, I live on base so my mail is usually 1-3 days after everyone else's for some reason. Does it say what the cut off score was???Congrats to everyone who got accepted!

I'm having the same paranoia. When I first turned in my application the lady wouldn't take my CPR certificate because she said I didn't need to turn it in. After calling the school several times I finally got confirmation that yes, I did need the cpr...

I applied as soon as I completed Micro over the summer with a total of 197 points, now that the deadline is up the waiting is killing me! I was pretty confident in my points when I turned in my application, now I'm starting to worry since I didn't qu...

I just finished my last two pre-reqs (Micro and A&P 2) and am getting ready to take the NAT in the next few weeks. I've looked at the types of questions and brushed up on my math skills (by far my weakest subject...especially without a calculator...
