  1. Tips for securing this opportunity

    Quendi posted a topic in Research

    Hey guys! Man, the last time I posted on this website was before nursing school. What a journey! I am looking for some insight from anyone with experience in the clinical research field. A bit of...

    Good to know! I'll definitely have to commit to that then.

  3. Tips for securing this opportunity

    Quendi replied to Quendi's topic in Research

    Thank you so much! I'm definitely going to look into these. My interview was pushed back due to the holiday week (I forget that most people aren't required to work

  4. Tips for securing this opportunity

    Quendi replied to Quendi's topic in Research

    Thanks so much for the input! I had no idea courses like that existed. Do you have (or know anyone that has had) any experience with these courses? Looks like there are several programs offered but I...

  5. FAU 2014 ABSN applicants

    Quendi posted a topic in Florida Nursing

    I haven't seen a thread directed at applicants for this application cycle, so I figured I'd start one! Just one month left until applications open. Who's ready? :) I figure we can meet here to discuss...

  6. FAU 2014 ABSN applicants

    Quendi replied to Quendi's topic in Florida Nursing

    Hey! I don't mind answering some questions. :) I know very few people who were accepted had any sort of prior clinical experience. They don't really require it, and you never really have the...

    The community polos have not arrived yet, and I assume the same goes for the ID tag. We will likely receive more information about it next week.

  8. FAU 2015 ABSN Applicants

    Quendi replied to Amandinator's topic in Florida Nursing

    Just wanted to pop in and answer this for you. I am currently entering the 2014 ABSN program at FAU. 2015 will be the first time they will be doing a Spring semester start to the program. It seems...

  9. FAU Accelerated - What did you use to study for the FAU TEAS V?

    Quendi replied to Grindaholic's topic in Florida Nursing

    Lol. No problem. I had to figure this all out myself, and really could have used some of this information when I was applying. :) Best of

  10. FAU Accelerated - What did you use to study for the FAU TEAS V?

    Quendi replied to Grindaholic's topic in Florida Nursing

    I used the ATI study manual and online practice tests only. I got a 96% adjusted score (99th percentile). I started studying three weeks in advance (I dedicated about 1-2 hours of study most days of...

    Quendi replied to Quendi's topic in Florida Nursing

    Well, the labs are the only thing that vary, so those are the only times you are waiting on. I would call, since most people I have talked to have theirs, or had holds that may have held up their...

    Quendi replied to Quendi's topic in Florida Nursing

    Everyone I've talked to has their schedules. You have to check MyFAU under Self Service > Registration. As for the books, the ATI books are completely separate than the textbooks for our classes....

  13. Nowadays, in S. Florida, do hospitals prefer BSNs, or is the RN all that matters?

    Quendi replied to Grindaholic's topic in Florida Nursing

    From what I've seen, hospitals are really trending towards hiring BSNs. With such a competitive job market, you really want to give yourself the best chance possible. The number of BSNs entering the...

    Quendi replied to Quendi's topic in Florida Nursing

    I will have the rented ones until August 1st. I figure I can always rent again, or purchase if I decide the text is something I will use in the future. I did purchase some, however, that I am positive...

    Quendi replied to Quendi's topic in Florida Nursing

    Hey Daniela. Did you see my post on the Facebook group? I used Chegg.com. They were cheaper than amazon and bookbyte. :) The only one they don't have in stock is the Florence Nightingale book, which I...

    Quendi replied to Quendi's topic in Florida Nursing

    Is anyone having trouble opening the syllabus for NUR 3115? edit: I had to download it and open it to be able to see it. I'll leave this info here in case anyone else runs into this issue (I believe...

    Thanks Megs! :) FYI, the group on Blackboard is

    Quendi replied to Quendi's topic in Florida Nursing

    I'm always glad to help! It's not a problem at all. I am not registered as of yet, but I am glad to hear things are underway. As as for the student oath and affirmation form, I never received a...

  20. FAU 2014 ABSN applicants

    Quendi replied to Quendi's topic in Florida Nursing

    Nope! I keep checking myfau in hopes that it will magically appear. They said two weeks, which would be this Friday. If nothing has changed by then, might have to get in contact with someone. I really...

  21. FAU 2014 ABSN applicants

    Quendi replied to Quendi's topic in Florida Nursing

    Hey Daniela! I'm not registered either. I noticed yesterday that my status was finally changed to nursing, so I assume maybe by the end of the week we will be registered for classes. As as far as the...

  22. FAU 2014 ABSN applicants

    Quendi replied to Quendi's topic in Florida Nursing

    Nope. The annual student health form includes the TB skin test (as the link on certified profile shows). I don't think they would require a physical exam for nursing school. Their main concern is that...

    Quendi replied to Quendi's topic in Florida Nursing

    I just sent an email to Colleen about this. I will let you know what she says. All the due dates are out of whack it seems, but I'm assuming that one is annual beginning next

  25. FAU ABSN 2015 (Volunteering Necessary)?

    Quendi replied to Grindaholic's topic in Florida Nursing

    Not a problem. I took A&P I and II with the labs last summer. I will say, if you are taking them over the full summer (at FAU they were offered back to back, 6 weeks each), you should be fine. If...
