    lexcourben replied to jogimada's topic in Texas Nursing

    What area are you interested in? They have several speciality areas open so I think it depends on where you want to go. Some positions have been filled and others they're still doing interviews....

  5. Brookhaven/Mountainview

    lexcourben replied to sitesonRN's topic in General Students

    Hi Sandy, If it's financially feasible I would only work part time at the most. Even that was difficult for me to do though. I worked 2 days a week at the beginning of the program but had to take a...

  8. Any Brookhaven CC students?

    lexcourben replied to sitesonRN's topic in General Students

    The admission process has changed so the number of points for our class may not really help you but I believe it was 14 points. The top 60 students were selected for interviews then the faculty...

  10. Drop-out percnetage

    lexcourben replied to PreNurseKirk's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think you're right on Gauge. Some volunteer experience in a hospital or having to become a CNA would give potential students a chance to see if they were really cut out for nursing. This is...

    lexcourben replied to PreNurseKirk's topic in Texas Nursing

  16. How's the waiting period for Tarrant & Collin ADN Programs?

    lexcourben replied to michellesrndream's topic in Texas Nursing

    I think the lowest gpa for CCCCD was 3.7 but they reduced the number of students they accepted because there wasn't enough faculty to teach. Acceptance is based on a point system; a combination of...

    lexcourben replied to Mr. Beef's topic in Texas Nursing

    Hate to break it to you but El Centro is now requiring the HESI A2 entrance exam as well. No more NET. The HESI wasn't that bad. There's a study guide available in the Brookhaven library at the...
