First off I would like to thank those who posted on the NCLEX forum giving their reviews on U-World & La Charity PDA because of you I saved a ton of money! I graduated from Nursing School Dec 2015, my school was Pro Kaplan and swore by it! Two w...

No I didn't do the case studies for La Charity just the questions for each chapter. I was freaking out when doing U-World because with each test I was mid 50's low 60's. I think your doing well in that range, U-World is hard! Good Luck on NCLEX...I r...

Good Luck to everyone who applied, cant believe this time last year I was waiting for my acceptance letter...time flies!!! @Coachremson I hope you get accepted this year BHSON is a really good school, you won't regret coming here, we learn so much in...

Like a previous poster said If I can pass the dosage calculation tests anyone can!!! I've always struggled with math but what helped me was DosageHelp.com and I learned dimensional analysis, which I love!!! I wanted to be a Nurse since 16 and what al...

Okay so I've been in Nursing School for 3 weeks and so far so good "EXCEPT" I think for what ever reason my clinical instructor either #1 doesn't think I have what it takes to be a nurse or #2 she just doesn't like me for whatever reason. I've been t...

Update: You all were right! I talked with my Instructor and she explained to me she hasn't checked in on me as much because she saw I was confident week one, she also said that the Nurses and Tech's have said the same thing, I'm confident but that I ...

Thanks for the advice, I have looked at this whole situation another way, I feel confident in what I've learned so far and if I have questions I don't hesitate to ask a tech, or the nurse that is assigned to my patient, both have been very helpful. I...

Okay I have been preparing for nursing school before I was accepted into a program. In January I purchased a dosage calc book and a test success book and have read both. In April I was accepted into two programs and had a tough time deciding which pr...

I have been accepted to two nursing schools, one is at a local community college and the other is a hospital based program. I'm having trouble deciding which one to attend. If I get my ASN through the community college I would'nt have to take out any...

Thanks for the replies, both schools I can transfer my credits and transition to a BSN program. I'm leaning towards the hospital based program. I never had to take out loans for school so I'm a little nervous.

Thanks CT Pixie for the advice!

Jenna yes Im working full-time. I always hear dont work no more than 15 hrs throughout the program because it will be a Full Time job. Luckily at my job I can go to part-time hrs but money will be very tight.

Random question for those who have already been accepted, will you be still working? Full-time or Part-time?

I just logged into BHSON site and it now shows what credits are transferred in. Kellyre they took the lifespan class from GWCC. Im so happy that I dont have to take Child Development.

Okay. When they give us the booklist Im going to order my books through amazon...much cheaper!

Mandy I read that your friend is giving you her books, do you have the names? I just got my litmann stethocope delivered today..excited!

Kelly I got accepted into GWCC but have decided to stick with BHSN because of their accelerated option and because a good friend of mine is graduating from GWCC next month and she wasnt really happy with their tests and grading, she said it was very ...

I got in as well, wasnt expecting to get into the Community College because its so competitive!!! Now I need to choose which program to go to. Congrats to everyone who have been accepted.

I took lifespan at Gateway. I've been calling the main number so I will try to contact her directly...Thanks

I took Lifespan psych 202 and on the BHSN site it says they accept Child Development 201. I read on this thread that they accept lifespan. Can you tell me who did you talk to? I keep calling to verfy they take it because if they don't I will take it ...

I have Mandy. Are you doing the day or evening program? I choose the day program..Congrats.

X0amber13 I know its frustrating and discouraging but never give up.

Have you applied to Bridgeport Hospital? It seems so hard to get into the community college programs unless you have a 4.0 and have 80 or better on the teas. I was waitlisted at Gateway and Naugatuck also. I applied to BHSN and was accepted. I never ...

Kellyre & Pennholder at least that's one less thing you guys have to do :) jenna.barolli Im thinking about doing my cpr training with the Red Cross also.

I'm starting in the fall..day program. Has anyone done their CPR training yet? If so where did you do it?
