  1. Admissions priorities for WGU Pre-licensure

    Agreed with SoonerBred - we are in the same cohort. I don't know if this helps, but here's my info: Bachelor of Arts in Art Studio GPA: 3.0 TEAS: 93% (99th percentile) No volunteer experience Technician at WGU partner hospital Expired CNA license (ex...
  2. I just wanted to clarify that working at Cedars does not make the acceptance criteria any less strict! I am an employee at CS (SoonerBred, you know me of course). I did not get accepted the first time I applied (October 2013 cohort) nor did I get acc...
  3. WGU Prelicensure-Cedars Sinai-Oct, 2014

    I'm here, I'm here! LOL. I'm not on Facebook; I have a fear of the lack of privacy on the internet. Even on here, I'm afraid someone at work might find me and know who I am. I must say though that I'm excited to meet everyone and I wish the time woul...
  4. New Grad needs EKG help.

    I also vote for Dale Dubin's book: Rapid Interpretation of EKG's, Sixth Edition: Dale Dubin: 9780912912066: Amazon.com: Books Maybe you can find it at your hospital/workplace's library (mine has it). Or perhaps they have other books to check out. :)

    Yes, thank you both for clearing things up!
  6. WGU Prelicensure-Cedars Sinai-Oct, 2014

    Sorry GeekkeeG, I was not clear. What I meant was that 10 are selected from the start for California. There should only be 10 of us right now (not 12), so no one will be left out unless they willingly drop out.
  7. WGU Prelicensure-Cedars Sinai-Oct, 2014

    GeekkeeG, I asked my advisor about the 12 student acceptance and according to him, they accept 12 students everywhere but California. They accept 12 because they anticipate that about 2 students will almost always drop out due to family emergencies o...
  8. Congrats and good luck to you!
  9. WGU Prelicensure-Cedars Sinai-Oct, 2014

    I just wanted to say that I'm excited to meet all 9 from our cohort. :]
  10. WGU Prelicensure-Cedars Sinai-Oct, 2014

    I just finished my intake "interview" and I can answer a few of your questions. Our bootcamp will probably take place on the second weekend of October and our testing for that bootcamp is the following weekend! As far as the iTouch, I was told as lon...

    I ❤ nerds, and Dobby.
  12. WGU Prelicensure-Cedars Sinai-Oct, 2014

    Bachelor of Arts in Humanities, graduated in 2008 Overall GPA: 3.0 GPA in prerequisites: 4.0 TEAS: 93% Expired CNA license (expired 6 years ago!) Currently working at a hospital - clinical but not nursing I hope that helps!

    SoonerBredExpat, I was accepted as well! Lil, good luck with OC! I hope you make it, and keep your head up. :)
  14. WGU Pasadena

    I will be applying to other schools here in Southern California but most of them have wait lists. I'm also going to try again in 6 months for the next cohort. Your counselor was able to give you the cut-off scores, while mine told me the cut-off scor...
  15. WGU Pasadena

    I just got the call. I did not get in. The advisor couldn't even tell me why. He said average scores and grades were not released... Congrats to everyone that got in!
  16. WGU Pasadena

    Cyndal, don't give up! Keep trying to get those scores up, you can do it. Yaya, congrats! I still haven't heard back. Maybe I'll get the call within a few days...
  17. ECG/EKG Tech vs Monitor Tech

    I'm surprised they only focused on lead II. It will definitely help you to learn to read other leads, because in some occasions, lead II may not be the best lead (e.g., axis deviation, infarct, etc). You can learn a lot online through a Google searc...
  18. WGU Pasadena

    I just wanted to update you that it is less than one month before the Pasadena cohort is supposed to start, and I still haven't heard back from my advisor as to whether or not I was accepted. I was supposed to find out by mid-November. Then it was ...
  19. GLT1 frustrated!!!!

    In a nutshell: yes. It's listed on their website as a pre-requisite course. With that being said, I can tell you from my personal experience that GLT1 (issues in behavioral science) was the only course I did not take in college. I did not want to go ...
  20. WGU Pasadena

    I applied to Pasadena. According to my counselor, the deadline has been extended to November 15, and the start date has been extended to February 1, 2014. The Orange County cohort start date has not been changed. What this means for us Pasadena hopef...
  21. Hi! Just like you, I did some A&P with lab on straighterline, and I CLEP'd out of Human Growth and Development. I am applying for the Huntington Memorial cohort (now postponed to February 2014, according to my advisor). I hope we both get in! I a...
