I do not work. I would say the majority of the people in the program do work though. I have 2 kids, so that's why I chose part time. I would say it's very doable to work. Currently, We only have class once a week plus clinicals (this semester there are 6 and a weekend of mental health)

Good luck you guys! Your TEAS scores sound awesome. I was accepted into the night and weekend program with an 81.3%. I graduate in the fall. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. It's a challenging program, but I feel it's worth it! :)

Really? I know a girl who went to Herzing who can't pass her nclex after multiple tries. I'm not knocking technical schools, they are good for certain majors. I'm just not sure it's worth it to go there if you can't pass the nclex. Please inform me if I'm wrong :)

I believe it was before you start clinicals. I had a friend who got health insurance at the end of December. You will hear more about it in orientation, I'm sure :)

The majority of clinicals are 630-1230 Saturday and Sunday. There was an occasional group that met on a weekday (maybe Wednesday? I don't remember) from about 3-9 (I'm not sure of exact times). They start the second semester, and you will have 6 of them that semester. :)

No class on Saturdays. You will only have it Tuesday and Thursday. :)

Oh wow!! You got an A? Any tips on how to prepare for his tests? Does he test much different from the teacher I have now? I heard he uses a different book to lecture from and won't tell anyone what it is, any truth to that?

Yeah summer classes seem intense and fast paced. Really? He's not that bad? I heard the class was crying after they received the first test back. Any truth to that?

We have a test every single week, but we are only there once a week (most weeks). We've had 2 tests so far. It seems faster paced, but it's not bad. Most of the students in my class are doing better in this class than they did the others. I'm nervous about med-surg this Fall though; it's hard having to change instructors when you've had the same ones for the past year. I've also heard he's very tough (I don't mind a challenge, I just hope he's fair). You probably won't have him though :)

Hey you guys!!! Good luck! You should be hearing soon! I'm in the part time program, and I just started my 3rd semester. Y'all are going to love your teachers the first year! They are challenging but very nice. Once you get the hang of nclex questions, the class becomes easier. Again, good luck! :)

I have to add that I'm in the n/w program, and I love it so far! Granted, I haven't made it to med-surg yet. I hear that's the hardest class for the n/w program. It isn't an easy program, but the instructors are encouraging! Good luck!

Last year the cutoff for night and weekend was about 184, or at least that's the lowest score I heard from my friends. I had about the same as you. I think you stand a very good chance of getting in. Good luck!

I used the TEAS book to study a day before, and I made an 81.3%. Not sure if that's any good, but it was good enough to get me into the part time program last year. Good luck!

That is awesome! I just took the pharmacology one, and it was worth 5% of our grade. I made an 1189, I was happy with that.

Good luck you guys! I'm in my first semester at Shelby, and it is tough. It is very much worth it though!
