  1. Did you learn anything from online courses?

    Calzonan RN replied to CrazyPremed's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I've taken several classes online, two of which were Bio201/202. I would have preferred to take them in person, but didn't have the time to get to classes two days a week. I really feel I learned a...

  2. Brittney Spears???

    Calzonan RN replied to Jennette's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I really think that no one that has posted on this board about this is 'in the know'. From what I gathered the thread was started by someone who saw the information on TV. I'd heard a couple of...

  3. Brittney Spears???

    Calzonan RN replied to Jennette's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I think I heard that she's having it here I heard she rented the whole floor of a hospital or something, give me a

  4. Anyone taken BIO201 through Rio Salado?

    Calzonan RN replied to Continat's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I just finished taking my BIO202 test and the best advice I was given was to study and know the lesson objectives. If you go through each of those and know them and understand them, you'll have no...

  5. What's Your Best Nursing Ghost Story?

    Calzonan RN replied to steffck's topic in General Nursing

    I am not a nurse yet, I'm currently waiting on an opening for NS but I've had several 'strange' experiences myself. First one- I'm Catholic and was going through CCD in the 8th grade when we all went...

  6. SCC Scottsdale Healthcare Educational Service Partnership

    Calzonan RN replied to boomerfriend's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm pretty sure I know what program you're talking about. Scottsdale has a program where they've reserved 1/2 of their seats (I think about 20) for employees of Scottsdale Healthcare. There is no...

  7. Rio's nursing school

    Calzonan RN replied to Calzonan RN's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Thanks so much. I had really considered putting Rio as one of my choices, but am a little intimidated about going to NS online, YKWIM? I've taken 201 and am taking 202 (final is this week, hence the...

  8. Rio's nursing school

    Calzonan RN replied to Calzonan RN's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Martiniyoung, Thanks for replying, you gave me a lot of information that is very helpful. So clinicals are every OTHER Sat and Sun, do they ever fall during the week? Also, do you know if they're...

  9. Rio Salado Community College

    Calzonan RN replied to spudbunny's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Are you getting any support from the teachers? I've taken several classes at RIo and just wonder how much more I would have gained being in a classroom. Do you know if they're beginning Blk 1 this...

  10. CC's still have openings for Fall?

    Calzonan RN replied to mattsmom64's topic in Arizona Nursing

    More than likely (with my luck) it'll be close of business when they post it. My number is so high I'm sure it will take me weeks to get in, if I get in at all...

  11. What are you doing while you're waiting to get into NS

    Calzonan RN replied to boomerfriend's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Yes, October 4th is when they start assigning Spring NS slots. The letters go out Sept 12th to ask you to change or update your choices to coincide with the spring classes. From what I've been told...

  12. CC's still have openings for Fall?

    Calzonan RN replied to mattsmom64's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Thanks Mary, you eased my fears a little. I started last Thurs and my teacher seems great. We already have 10 chapters (!!) to read this week, but I guess it will prepare me for what is going to...

  13. What are you doing while you're waiting to get into NS

    Calzonan RN replied to boomerfriend's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I've been trying to figure out what my new choices will be, taking Patho and FON (the only co-req's I have left) and playing as much poker as I can before NS starts

  14. CC's still have openings for Fall?

    Calzonan RN replied to mattsmom64's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I was told it's going to be incoorporated into the program but they're not sure what they're going to do about FON, probably include it as well. Is patho really that hard that it would weed out...

  15. Patient Care Tech Programs?

    Calzonan RN replied to CrazyPremed's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Why not get your co-req's out of the way while you're waiting on NS? That's what I'm doing right now since I applied in June and will hopefully get accepted in Jan I'm taking patho and FON right now....

  16. Banner health Nurse fellows program??

    Calzonan RN replied to taapple's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I"m actually going on what the counselor said when I was there about two weeks ago. She told me that during spring and summer ap weeks there were actually less people submitting applications than in...

  17. CC's still have openings for Fall?

    Calzonan RN replied to mattsmom64's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I have the statistics from Maricopa CC's Spring NS program. There were 394 seats available, 730 (!!!!) qualified applicants, and only 369 placed into the program!!! That means there were 25 seats...

  18. Banner health Nurse fellows program??

    Calzonan RN replied to taapple's topic in Arizona Nursing

    You must be taking it through Rio too. I thought 202 was a lot harder as well. 1 more week to

  19. Banner health Nurse fellows program??

    Calzonan RN replied to taapple's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I was ready to muzzle her too!! Worry about getting your RN BEFORE you worry about an RN-BSN program!! Maybe in the future they should limit the orientation to people who are ready to turn in their...

  20. CC nursing students, anyone know of someone in their class waiting longer than 1 sem?

    Calzonan RN posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    Out of all of the people I've asked I haven't met anyone who has waited longer than one semester to get in to an Arizona CC nursing school, yet the NS's quote a one to two semester wait. I know it...

  21. CC nursing students, anyone know of someone in their class waiting longer than 1 sem?

    Calzonan RN replied to Calzonan RN's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Wow, that makes me feel better. I'm just stressing, I know. There's not much I can do about it now, I think that's the problem, that it's totally out of my control, and it's something that is going...

  22. Banner health Nurse fellows program??

    Calzonan RN replied to taapple's topic in Arizona Nursing

    NOoooo, that wasn't me. My friend was just about irate with that person. I remember you, I was in the last row too, but on the other side. Did you see my answer to you on the CC ? ? When did you...

  23. Banner health Nurse fellows program??

    Calzonan RN replied to taapple's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Yes, I was there. I was the one that discovered the essays weren't on the back of the application. Where were you sitting? I"d love to apply too, but it's hard for me to be so flexible in my...

  24. CC nursing students, anyone know of someone in their class waiting longer than 1 sem?

    Calzonan RN replied to Calzonan RN's topic in Arizona Nursing

    But would that be a wait of three semesters for people already with their applications in, or would it be that people are deciding to wait three semesters before turning their applications in, to...

  25. Banner health Nurse fellows program??

    Calzonan RN replied to taapple's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I went and talked to Kristina last week and she couldn't tell me anything other than the standard nursing advisor catch phrase of it's a one to two semester wait! I know they really don't have the...
