I’ve been there. I learned that so much of nursing school culture is just ridiculous. I used to to try to be assertive but respectful and point out situations such as yours. You’re told to think critically. You’re taught to be thoughtful, ethical, co...

Wow. That’s so what I didn’t want to hear about a residency program. Fears come true. I have heard that some residency programs were “residency programs.” I suppose that means I’ll have to research research research before I dive into something.

Interesting. I'm a new grad from California and I'm freaking out about 5 med-surg on my own, 4 if tele. A classmate of mine is also in your situation. We have set ratios. Work at Kaiser and I think it might be lower still. I can't imagine 7. I feel f...

I wondered how replies to the OPs question would differ today with all craziness that's going on these days. Depending on where you're from and what you've experienced Daniel's question is absolutely legitimate. This is more than three years after ...

Greetings! Question: To those who have applied to the UC Davis residency program or any other residency program, how are you placed in a specific area/speciality? You do list your top choices like medical school residency and then they choose who wil...

You'll be happy to know that during a debate in one of my nursing courses the was immunizations and all 25 students in the class were pro-immunization. For a while I thought that getting your kid immunized was just a given but both health care profe...

I totally get it. It's do hard to fight the fear sometimes and challenge authority. But the people in charge and on top are people too. They are not all knowing and do make mistakes. I think they forget that sometimes and we as the patient or peo...

@Madelinee. I haven't turned mine in either. I was already in the Stanislaus system though so maybe it took less time to get my financial aid in order. That and I think they do each student's award individually so maybe they just haven't gotten to...

Okay so now I'm afraid of the tiny glimmering light at the end of the tunnel? That charming twinkle in the distance is hell fire? Hm. No, I guess it's a what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I don't think that I have any illusion of first nurs...

You can try going to mycsustan.edu to see if an account has been set up for you. You have to click the link for "Initial sign-in..." to see for you have a log-in. If you can log in, on the right side of the page very purple page that appears, there...

I'm from Stockton if you have any questions. But just to answer the basics that I know you'll want to know if you're not from around here: Live in northwest Stockton. 95219 is probably the zip code to shoot for (it has the highest income bracket, ...

Check out the website: https://ucannualwage.ucop.edu/wage/ It will tell you the earnings of ANY University of California employee. If you don't know an employee name look by job title. Btw Physicians = PHYSCN. Most RNs are clinical nurse 2 (I thin...

And I don't know if they contact you if you are not accepted.

@rgallo. So I only know the TEAS score of the girl who sat next to me during orientation and she, similar to SimbaSam, got an 86. And yes, last year we found out in about a month after the deadline. I think I got a call and a letter.

I think this is what I want to do! It's wonderful to see my "dream" job so clearly. (Until I'm actually in the job it seems fluffy and unreal.) Or maybe ambition is the better word.) I've worked in mental health research for some time, but I rare...

Is there something specific you'f like to know? I don't really want to announce my stats to everyone one the Internet. Plus, this is kind of a second career for me, so unless you're in a similar situation, we're likely to be very different in the e...

Huhh. I had a very similar experience to that of NormaSaline and ChemStickPro, only in PA school. It was to put it nicely, a horse and pony show. You know something is wrong when resident instructorS (plural) say "I don't know what you need to lea...

UC Davis.

Eek. Looks like you can't write a person's real name on here. Good to know. The --------- is where I typed the director's name. No malice intended.

I went into the office to turn a transcript and the assistant at the front desk telephoned ------------------ (the director) who said mid-July. I'm guessing that there are a lot of variables that go into choosing who they accept. Last year applicat...

Last week I was told mid-July. Patience, patience, patience!

What's the daily/weekly schedule like? Is it reasonable to work at all?
