    Smartchick0123 replied to ianguitarist's topic in California Nursing

  3. Riverside Community College Nursing Program Spring 2016

    Smartchick0123 replied to jeannette17's topic in School, College Programs

    I would not recommend WCU...they have a bad reputation and the tuition will be $100K. To have all your questions answered go to the Pre-Nursing Workshop held by the nursing counselor and RCC students...

  4. ADN nurses Los Angeles

    Smartchick0123 replied to ChrisB718's topic in California Nursing

    I agree with what everyone else is saying. I just graduated last week with my ADN and I live 60 miles east of Los Angeles and even out here it is really tough to get a job. The only reason why I can...

  5. UCLA New Grad Program Winter 2016

    Smartchick0123 replied to Kayla0515's topic in California Nursing

    I noticed this problem recently too with magnet hospitals and some other big name hospitals. I would think that having a B.S. from a UC in Medical Bio, started my BSN coursework at a Cal State while...

  6. UCLA New Grad Program Winter 2016

    Smartchick0123 replied to Kayla0515's topic in California Nursing

    I'm pretty disappointed as I talked to the manager also and she said they don't take any ADN RN applicants even with concurrent enrollment in an RN to BSN program. They will only consider you if your...

    Smartchick0123 replied to Kayla0515's topic in California Nursing

    Hello! I am applying to this program too. Yay! I am still doing last minute edits on my cover letter and resume though. I think it possibly means that the application is due at midnight

  9. Riverside Community College Nursing Program Spring 2016

    Smartchick0123 replied to jeannette17's topic in School, College Programs

    I just took the Jump Start over the summer where you take 1 or 2 classes to get started on the BSN before you graduate. Because I took the class I have guaranteed admission into the program. I'm in my...

  10. Riverside Community College Nursing Program Spring 2016

    Smartchick0123 replied to jeannette17's topic in School, College Programs

    That is 100% true as the chemistry grade will be factored into your ADN GPA as it is a requirement for the Board of Nursing in California. So you have to have passed chemistry or you will not be...

  11. Riverside Community College Nursing Program Spring 2016

    Smartchick0123 replied to jeannette17's topic in School, College Programs

    You should take Chemitry 2A as this will qualify you to advancing your degree to a BSN in the future. I would recommend not rushing your sciences as you want to achieve the highest grade possible to...

  12. Schools that accept pre req retakes?

    Smartchick0123 replied to Porkutoast's topic in California Nursing

    I can't speak for all California universities but I have not encountered a school that would take the full retake grade. From what I remember they would take the average of the two grades you...

  13. Riverside Community College Nursing Program Spring 2016

    Smartchick0123 replied to jeannette17's topic in School, College Programs

    I just want to give you guys a heads up now. You really want to not cut any corners on taking the required prerequisite classes. The way that nursing is going you will more than likely have to get a...

    Smartchick0123 replied to cheesepuff's topic in Nursing Career

    Well...I have to agree with them too to be honest. When I mean work I'm talking more like 8-12 hours a week and really nothing more during the 2 year ADN program. Sometimes I won't even be able to...

  15. Already have a bachelors...

    Smartchick0123 replied to cheesepuff's topic in Nursing Career

    O don't worry at all you are actually around the average age as we have students as young as 20 and as old as in their 60s. So never feel like that as I am 29 and had those feelings too...got over it...

  16. Already have a bachelors...

    Smartchick0123 replied to cheesepuff's topic in Nursing Career

    Really consider going to a workshop before applying; there is one in Riverside this Thursday. I say this because I did have to go back to take a couple classes I didn't have as a UCR student and was...

    Smartchick0123 replied to cheesepuff's topic in Nursing Career

    Hey! I am currently enrolled as a 4th semester at Riverside City College and I have a bachelor's from UCR so I know the dilemma you are going through. I chose RCC because compared to all the other...

  21. Riverside Community College fall 2014

    Smartchick0123 replied to cldomine's topic in California Nursing

    You can purchase the ATI tests on the website. You get two of them and you can take each exam twice. The nice thing too is that it times you so you can see how much time you spend on each section....

  22. Riverside Community College fall 2014

    Smartchick0123 replied to cldomine's topic in California Nursing

    I'm in the program and for the teas I greatly recommend paying the $80 for the practice tests. They are harder than the actual test so if you do well on them and study the areas you scored low on...

    Smartchick0123 replied to Bigota2014's topic in California Nursing

    I was wondering do we get priority registration throughout the program? I need to take nutrition and I figured I'd take it during summer session but if I don't have priority I probably won't get in....
