    Kensington replied to hushpupgrl's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I'd like to bump this up, as I'm interested as well!

  2. Any Johns Hopkins (JHU) BSN/MSN 2008 applicants?

    Kensington replied to Asherah's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Ahh, that's right! I sooo wish I could, but I have a lab practicum that night, so unfortunately I can't miss it. Such a shame! Let me know how it

  3. Any Johns Hopkins (JHU) BSN/MSN 2008 applicants?

    Kensington replied to Asherah's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Thanks Ash, you are so encouraging! I guess I'm just trying to be realistic so I don't get my heart broken! But I am trying to stay positive. :) Where is the west coast reception

  4. Yale's GEPN program for Fall 2008

    Kensington replied to Kensington's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Hey you guys, this may be a dumb question, but for Yale's essay(s), are you numbering them as you go along, or are you writing this out as a formal essay, without numbered

  5. Yale's GEPN program for Fall 2008

    Kensington replied to Kensington's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Hey May-Baby, Thanks for your contribution! It's great to hear from a GEPN student. Honestly, I don't know if any of the reputation stuff matters, or if it's even true. Yale is such a strong name,...

  6. Yale's GEPN program for Fall 2008

    Kensington replied to Kensington's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Thank you! Your advice is very encouraging, and that's just what I'll do! :) I can't be something I'm not, so I can only tell them the

  7. Any Johns Hopkins (JHU) BSN/MSN 2008 applicants?

    Kensington replied to Asherah's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Welcome! I would really love to go to JHU -- I'm applying to their regular BSN, and then if I don't get in I'll be ready to apply to the accelerated BSN. I haven't even looked at their essays yet,...

  8. USD's MEPN program for Fall 2008

    Kensington replied to Kensington's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Great! I'm really excited about it and hope that I can convey that in my statement. I hate writing those btw, it's so hard to say how you really feel without it feeling forced or sounding cheesy....

  9. Yale's GEPN program for Fall 2008

    Kensington replied to Kensington's topic in Post Graduate Students

    So if you are like me, and have "zero" formal research experience, how best to answer that question? That's the only question I've yet to write an answer to, and I just don't know what to say. Ideas,...

  10. Human Anatomy / A&P I Club for Fall 2007

    Kensington replied to Kensington's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My first lecture exam is on Tuesday, so I've been a studying fool! So much to know,

  11. Yale's GEPN program for Fall 2008

    Kensington replied to Kensington's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Oh, and I hear you about the BSN dilemma. I think it's smart to have that to fall back

  12. Yale's GEPN program for Fall 2008

    Kensington replied to Kensington's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Hey, you two! I'm glad that we have each other to talk out some of these issues. Please let me know what you guys know about the whole research thing. :) Thanks!

  13. Prereqs for Samuel Merritt College

    Kensington replied to SparklyGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi Asherah, They factor in your last 60 units total, including anything taken post bac. It's really good then if you take a bunch of prereqs after your bachelors, because basically they start with...

  14. Prereqs for Samuel Merritt College

    Kensington replied to SparklyGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well since you are taking chem now, that's the grade they are going to factor in. And they only take your last 60 units at SMC, so I don't think those earlier chem grades are even going to be...

  15. Prereqs for Samuel Merritt College

    Kensington replied to SparklyGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think they would take your best grade actually. In all the conversations I've had with them, that's what they've told me. The only reason that I think they wouldn't take your organic chem grade,...

  16. Prereqs for Samuel Merritt College

    Kensington replied to SparklyGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My best guess is that they would take your regular chemistry, not the organic one, but who knows for sure, huh? I have had some bad luck with people getting back to me too. Good

  17. Poll: Where are you applying?

    Kensington replied to kirs's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes, it's pretty brutal! I do have to have a custom statement to each program. I would say my number 1 is Georgetown or USD. But I wouldn't mind Duke, either! Where is your number

  18. Prereqs for Samuel Merritt College

    Kensington replied to SparklyGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm currently taking prereqs at the College of San Mateo and the City College of San Francisco. But each semester, I just take them where I can get 'em!

  19. Poll: Where are you applying?

    Kensington replied to kirs's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Gosh, way too many! I'm applying to: Samuel Merritt: ELMNS USD: MEPN NYU: ABSN Duke: ABSN Yale: GEPN Northeastern: MEPN Georgetown: ABSN Johns Hopkins: BSN Marymount: ABSN Phew! Good luck everyone!

  20. Admission into Nursing Program and GPA

    Kensington replied to LK503's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes, UW is one of the most competitive programs in the country. Look around at some others. You have great grades, and you should have no problem getting into other BSN programs. Any chance that...

  21. Human Anatomy / A&P I Club for Fall 2007

    Kensington replied to Kensington's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Far from slapping you, I'm very happy for you! Where do you live? Maybe I'll move there and take your class,

  22. UW New direct-entry DNP

    Kensington replied to lc3's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I'm pretty sure she means the University of Washington. They are always referred to as U-Dub (UW).

  23. Human Anatomy / A&P I Club for Fall 2007

    Kensington replied to Kensington's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    So I am typing this while lying on the couch. I've been studying cellular structure and function for hours, and I am sooo tired! This may sound incredibly dumb, but I can't believe how detailed this...

  24. Human Anatomy / A&P I Club for Fall 2007

    Kensington replied to Kensington's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had my first class last night, it was our lab night, and geez this is going to be hard! We don't really follow the text at all, and it seems a little disorganized. We have a cadeaver as well, and...

  25. Human Anatomy / A&P I Club for Fall 2007

    Kensington replied to Kensington's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That's so great that you got the class at Skyline - I would have liked to get a class there as it's closer to the city, where I live. I'm taking it at the College of San Mateo, which hopefully works...
