  1. columbus technical college SPRING 2015

    Hedgehog25 replied to ShunFutureRn's topic in School, College Programs

    Wait a minute -- so if someone is currently taking to a pre-requisite class such as A & P during the current fall semester, they're not eligible to apply? Is this

  2. columbus technical college SPRING 2015

    Hedgehog25 replied to ShunFutureRn's topic in School, College Programs

    By chance, has anyone found out how applicants are going to be evaluated & ranked? I actually visited the school the other day and asked several departments (including Admissions) if they knew how...

  3. Seriously worried about the NLN PAX RN exam...

    Hedgehog25 replied to Hedgehog25's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Don't get me wrong -- for the most part, the book will *probably* be all you need to study in order to earn a fairly high percentile ranking (e.g., 93rd percentile and better), but it just irks me...

  4. Seriously worried about the NLN PAX RN exam...

    Hedgehog25 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    So I have been studying the official NLN PAX review book for a little while, and I was feeling pretty confident about my ability to memorize and re-learn the science material.... until I started doing...

  5. Seriously worried about the NLN PAX RN exam...

    Hedgehog25 replied to Hedgehog25's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well, I took the NLN PAX RN yesterday, and I did surprisingly well (147 raw score -- 98th percentile). I was only a question or two away from earning a score that would've ranked in the 99th...

  6. Seriously worried about the NLN PAX RN exam...

    Hedgehog25 replied to Hedgehog25's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well, the problem seems to be that the NLN book doesn't provide a deep/thorough-enough review of those subjects to ensure that a test-taker who uses that book as their primary review resource earns a...

    Hi. Yes, we can turn in applications at anytime between Sept. 15th and Oct. 1st. Not trying to be nosy, but I take it you have a 4.0 in your pre-reqs? :-) How did you do on the

  8. Questions about the NLN RN Pre-Entrance Exam...

    Hedgehog25 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi, I have a few questions about the NLN RN Pre-Entrance Exam (PAX) for those who have taken it. I understand that students are not allowed to use any form of a calculator during the test; with that...

  9. Questions about the NLN RN Pre-Entrance Exam...

    Hedgehog25 replied to Hedgehog25's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for the advice! Nope, as far as I know, the program I'm applying to doesn't offer a workshop/review course, so it looks like I'm on my own. Better get to

    Hedgehog25 replied to ShunFutureRn's topic in School, College Programs

    I also haven't been able to get any information from the program in regard's to previous accepted classes' applicant statistics. Have you applied to any other programs? Also, have you heard anything...

  11. Questions about the NLN RN Pre-Entrance Exam...

    Hedgehog25 replied to Hedgehog25's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for the advice. I'm surprised to hear you say that the English section is the hardest; I typically do well in English courses, and I previously took the TEAS and scored really high on the...

  12. Questions about the NLN RN Pre-Entrance Exam...

    Hedgehog25 replied to Hedgehog25's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I also purchased a study guide, so we'll see how it goes. The program I'm applying to doesn't even require chemistry or physics to be taken as pre-requisites, so it's kind of weird that they require...

    Hedgehog25 replied to ShunFutureRn's topic in School, College Programs

    Thanks, good luck to you as well. Since you mentioned cutoffs, do you know if they have established a cutoff yet for GPA, NLN scores, or COMPASS scores? I am hoping to be able to apply with at...

    Hedgehog25 replied to ShunFutureRn's topic in School, College Programs

    I'm applying for Columbus Tech's ADN program (spring 2015) as well. I have an A in A&P 2, an A in Microbiology, and I am currently re-taking A&P I because it is over 7 years old. I will be...

  15. Chances of getting into CRNA school after failing out of an ADN program?

    Hedgehog25 replied to Hedgehog25's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I didn't fail pharmacology, which is actually just a 1-credit course at my former program anyways. In actuality, I probably "picked" an even worse course to fail... a 7-credit Med-Surg course that...

  16. What is the cheapest online RN-to-BSN program?

    Hedgehog25 posted a topic in Online Distance Learning

    I have been wondering, does anyone know what the absolute cheapest online RN-to-BSN program is? Also, is the program still considered to be a good-quality program? If not, then what is the absolute...

  17. What is the cheapest online RN-to-BSN program?

    Hedgehog25 replied to Hedgehog25's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Thank you so much for posting that info.... Wow, the WGU tuition plan is unreal! But how is the reputation of WGU's RN-to-BSN program? Are they considered to be a "good" program? People have told me...

  18. Chances of getting into CRNA school after failing out of an ADN program?

    Hedgehog25 replied to Hedgehog25's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I thought about applying to an ABSN program, but first of all, there aren't any within 3 - 4 hours of where I live, and I'm currently lucky/pathetic enough to be living at home with my family (I.e.,...

  19. Chances of getting into CRNA school after failing out of an ADN program?

    Hedgehog25 replied to Hedgehog25's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Thanks for the advice. I know what you mean about getting burned out, but I hope that doesn't happen to me -- I'm not married and I don't have any kids, so I don't think I should have much of a...
