  1. Caught between Nursing and IT

    I have been a member of this site for almost 7 years. I have been back and forth on nursing quite a bit in this time. At one point, about 3 years ago, I was actually in nursing school in an ASN program and doing well. At the time, I was working part...
  2. IRSC RN Fall 2018 Applicants !

    I withdrew my intention to join the nursing program so that will be freeing up a spot. Good luck to the alternates!
  3. IRSC RN Fall 2018 Applicants !

    I'm in too. Chin up MP32. There's bound to be a spot that opens up as we get closer. Positive thoughts your way.
  4. IRSC RN Fall 2018 Applicants !

    Tried to do some research on when the emails go out but it seems so random every year.
  5. IRSC RN Fall 2018 Applicants !

    Hi all. I'm at 177. Here's hoping.
  6. Young mom of 3 considering CNA

    I personally don't think anyone should be a CNA unless they have an extreme passion for helping people(and I mean extreme to the level of cleaning up some pretty nasty bodily stuff) or they are planning on becoming a nurse. I'm a nursing student abo...
  7. CNA or not to CNA

    I like to keep things simple and direct so here goes... I am currently a student in an AS RN program. I work a non-healthcare related job that pays well. Our instructors have mentioned that we can work as nurse techs after fundamentals. Is it worth l...
  8. CNA or not to CNA

    I appreciate the input. I should note that I do have some networking possibilities via my current job as we do business for a couple local hospitals and skilled nursing facilities. I also may have a connection with a hospital group CEO, but I bare...
  9. I'm making this post for anyone who is applying to the Melbourne(formerly Palm Bay) spring 2017 nursing program. Just listing for general talk about scores, advice, and what have you. I'm taking my TEAS the 10th, and have a point total of 34. Look...
  10. Hey, so am I reading this right..we only have class Tuesday and clinical all day Saturday?
  11. The actual site is castlebranch.com. I think the information they have is is out of date.
  12. Does anyone know the specific day in January we are starting?
  13. I'll be in class with you all as well! Very exciting!
  14. Mine still says Chem Tech. That's not the most thrilling of news. I mean my last name starts with V, but yeah...
  15. I'm not entirely sure what area you are looking in.
  16. I saw. Bummer, I guess we have a little more time. Time to focus on other things for a couple weeks.
  17. I called to find out about the acceptance letters. They told me the committee has not met yet because they were scheduled to meet last week but for obvious reasons they were not able to. So I can only assume we will either hear at the end of this wee...
  18. Anyone find out yet?
  19. From past years posts I believe we should know around the 10th. On pins and needles myself. Really hoping for the best for us all.
  20. I applied as well. 90.5 on reading and 86.7 overall on my TEAS. I don't have any healthcare experience aside from challenging the CNA licensure but never using it. I have an AA with a 3.76 GPA and my point total ended up being 34. Here's hoping w...
  21. My TEAS score was 86.7 with a reading score of 90.5. Finalizing my application now(writing and re-writing my essay) so I can turn it in Monday morning. I'm sure I'll see several people doing the same, lol.
  22. I know this is an older post, but to anyone that is reading it in 2016....EFSC is currently a candidate for this licensure. So, what that means is they have to be set and ready by September 2017 as they became a candidate in 2015. They have to be ap...
  23. So I've read several articles on the site about LPN vs RN and my ultimate is to get my BSN and beyond. My questions are regarding my personal situation and what advice you can give me. A couple things about me: - Male - 27 yo - Currently employed in...
