  1. University of Michigan (UofM) Accelerated program

    I'm currently in the program -- I got the call the day before orientation. I also want to echo what Karen said and stress the importance of spending your last days of freedom relaxing and enjoying the company of your family & friends. U of M own...
  2. University of Michigan (UofM) Accelerated program

    Yes -- I got in off waitlist. At the last second, no less.
  3. University of Michigan (UofM) Accelerated program

    You would think! While UM may suffer those drawbacks, but it does have something OU doesn't. It has a gigantic hospital right next door and priority clinical placement given to Michigan students. You also tap into UM's huge alumni network, and empl...
  4. University of Michigan (UofM) Accelerated program

    This semester: 20 credits -- 14 the first 10 weeks, 6 the last 5 weeks. Mon: Class 0900 - 1400 Tue: Class 1000 - 1600 Wed: Clinical 0630 - 1400 Thu: Study Fri: Clinical 1400 - 2200 Sat: Study Sun: Study Clinical days/times vary according to your pla...
  5. University of Michigan (UofM) Accelerated program

    Different schools have different academic standards and are reflected in the pre-reqs they would like from their students. I was one of the last in the class of 2012 to be admitted. I understand people's frustrations but I will tell you that OSAMS, ...
  6. University of Michigan (UofM) Accelerated program

    I was one of those on the waitlist and offered acceptance. Being the smart fella that I am, I accepted. I'll be seeing some of you in the near future (maybe tomorrow).
  7. University of Michigan (UofM) Accelerated program

    I'm on the waitlist. Which means I'm going to start applying to traditional nursing programs. Congrats to those that got IN!
  8. University of Michigan (UofM) Accelerated program

    I have a feeling the switch from the old application process to the new Common Application process this year may have something to do with the additional delays. Usually when new procedures or processes are implemented, there are kinks and glitches a...
  9. University of Michigan (UofM) Accelerated program

    We still haven't been rejected!
  10. University of Michigan (UofM) Accelerated program

    Wow. Some GREAT info from some of the current students! Thank you SO much for the value you have added to this thread.
  11. University of Michigan (UofM) Accelerated program

    I mean this in the nicest way... Some of you need to step back from the keyboard and take a breather. Spring is here, try not to let THE WAIT get to you. Enjoy your family and friends, because once you get in (you WILL), you won't be spending as m...
  12. Michigan State Accelerated Program

    Got my 2nd rejection letter from MSU today. Between last year's application and this year's, I took another class outside of the prereqs and began volunteering in the ER at Children's Hospital. My suspicion is that my 2.8 undergrad GPA at MSU keeps ...
  13. University of Michigan (UofM) Accelerated program

    Just posting to register my complaint with the Common Application!!! What a headache -- I feel sorry for applicants that are less proficient with computers than I am.
  14. Michigan State Accelerated Program

    Another applicant here. I graduated from MSU in 2003 with a BA in Communication. Had a change of heart and along with it, a change in career. To get around this, I applied to the university as an English major. Problem solved (for me); they will...
  15. University of Michigan (UofM) Accelerated program

    Heya fellow Spartan! I found out by snail-mail; but I probably SHOULD have been furiously logging in to Wolverine Access like everybody else.
  16. University of Michigan (UofM) Accelerated program

    Well, I got waitlisted after checking my mailbox religiously for the past 3 months. It's nice to know I meet their criteria, but still being in limbo is a bit unsettling. I am getting married next year in June and the sooner I find out, the more tim...
  17. Pre-Nursing Students with ADD

    Just wanted to offer my support and to advise that you speak with a trained practitioner about this to determine if your self-dx is correct. As for study strategies, repetition is the name of the game with me, and LOTS of breaks. I used to procrasti...
  18. Nurses with ADD/ADHD?

    I've continued to read this thread and frankly, some of the responses I've seen clearly demonstrate some ignorance by some posters -- both stigmatizing ignorance and ignorance in the form of misinformation. I really have nothing to contribute except ...
  19. Ack! Finals!

    Good luck to all about to step into the gauntlet we all know and love... FINALS! Time to find your studying "hideout" and get intimate with the books. 15H/wk. of class +30H/wk. slinging coffee @ Starbucks +20H/wk. of studying -------------------- = ...
  20. Ack! Finals!

    All done! 3.7 in Stats 4.0 in A&P I 4.0 in Nutrition 4.0 in Basic Chem = 3.92 Now which way is it to bed? Yawwwwn.
  21. Ack! Finals!

    I'm glad to see your senses of humor have remained intact during hell week. I'm looking forward to seeing my girlfriend in a few weeks. She's a younger, smarter, and much more beautiful than I.
  22. Nurses with ADD/ADHD?

    Hello, fellow geniuses! "They" call it ADD/ADHD, I call it "unrestrained genius." I've learned to manage it without meds and use it to my advantage -- adderall dulled my personality, making me feel "flat."
  23. Do Male Nursing Students Get It Easier Than Female?

    Liz, do you mind if I pick your brain about this program? It is the exact one I will be applying to in the spring and I'd like some "insider info" Let me know!
  24. How many credit hours are you taking fall semester?

    15 CR -- the most I've taken in one semester since 1999! :uhoh21: A&P 1 Chemistry & Lab Statistics Nutrition (Online)
  25. hard of hearing to RN

    I spoke with a man at the House Ear Institute in L.A. on that very subject last summer because it had piqued my interest too. He said it's 10+ years out.
