Has anyone accepted a job as a new grad at a place that wasn't LTC or acute care? 2 months after receiving my license and 5 months after graduating with my BSN, I've accepted a job offer. I've only interviewed at a blood bank and for a step-down IC...

@Guy: Yes, I made sure before leaving my interview and even after that the manager wanted both ACLS and the critical care course out of pocket before hiring, not paid or reimbursed by the hospital. As has been said, it's pretty common here in Cali fo...

Hi all! I'm a bit surprised I couldn't find a thread already started on this, so I finally decided to join AllNurses and start it myself :) As many may have discovered by now, the prerequisites for CSU San Bernardino's nursing program have changed: 1...

@GOODMED: How difficult the class is really depends on each individual. I've had classmates who were 4.0 students yet barely made C's; I've also had classmates that aced the class through an incredible amount of dedication, focus, and personal unders...

Has anyone considered or been through the Platt College CNA Program (click here for website)? I was rejected from the ADN and BSN schools I had applied to for this fall, and I thought getting my CNA would not be a bad idea at this point. Out of all t...

Congrats, Hopeful4it! I went over the points with the nursing office a few hours ago. I miscalculated my GPA entirely; I hadn't understood how the hierarchy of classes. I had all A's except for B's in 220, 223, and 224, which are the three classes th...

Congratulations to all who were accepted! I was glad to spot a few familiar names from this thread :) As for myself, I think I just went through the five stages of grief in less than three minutes. I still might go to campus tomorrow to make sure the...

@Hopeful4it: I just tried to send you an email, but it immediately kicked back as an email that does not exist... Could there be a typo?

Ahh! I wish I had looked at this thread last night! I just asked my friends if anyone was on campus today so I'll be crossing my fingers, but if not, I'll definitely go first thing tomorrow morning.

Called in just a few minutes ago; they told me the list would be posted either at the end of this week or the beginning of the next. I'll call again Friday. Hope everyone's doing well! I've tried to keep busy with COPE, housecleaning, reading differ...

Thank you, am90, for the orientation info! I hope we can all plan on meeting there after seeing the list in the coming weeks. I have my COPE interview tomorrow, and if they accept me, rotations begin August 1st. Hopefully that program is as flexible ...

I thought someone posted the list on the Winter 2013 thread as a link and there was no problem, but if anyone does want to give me their email addresses, I'll gladly email you. Starting July, I'll probably try to stop by campus once a week to see if ...

Good luck to everyone studying for finals! Let's power through until the end ~ @Hopeful4it: Welcome! I plan on taking a picture of the list, don't worry. I know exactly how you feel about B's, but it's all we can do right now to hope for the best. I ...

@amr90: Thank you for your answer! I'm glad I didn't sign up for any CPR classes then -- you really saved me money there. As for COPE, I haven't received an interview or rejection yet. But their application period ends at the end of the month so hope...

Hi all! Hope everyone is doing well. Quick question for am90 -- do you recommend we do anything in particular over the summer? More specifically, is there anything we should review, summer classes we might want to take, or certifications to make sure...

Hello, I am about to submit an application for COPE's CCE program at Riverside Community Hospital. Has anyone else been accepted or interviewed at this particular branch? I would like to be as prepared as possible; from previous posts of different br...

@am90: Thank you so much for answering my previous question! @Jesses*girl: The scores from Saturday's TEAS exam should be up now :) I just submitted my new score to the nursing office -- 92.7. Not what I was hoping, but still a great improvement and ...

@am90: Thank you for offering to help! How long did it take for you to receive your admission letter/email?

Thank you both for the encouragement :) As previously said, I took the TEAS on 2/23, and I received an email this week stating because of a medical issue that occurred during our exam (something happened out in the hall; I still don't know exactly wh...

@nj892: I couldn't find it online. I hope you don't mind that I don't really want to type everything out; I'll give you the basic idea for each category :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ GPA - 30 POINTS POSSI...

@Jesses*girl: Thank you for the encouragement. I'm wondering if they'll count BIOL224 / CHEM205 during spring if I do happen to get an A in one or both. I was told to bring back my PAWS by July 1st, so we'll see. The wait is sure to be excruciating. ...

I guess I'll start off by saying I'm a CSUSB student of 2 years (transferred from RCC). I just got my TEAS score back with a score of 84.7. My GPA (if I can manage to get a B in BIOL223 in which I'm struggling like crazy with Noriega) is 3.50. Over...
