  2. CSN Fall 2015

    ViperJustin replied to PrayingToPass's topic in Nevada Nursing

    I don't know. But I do know there's a major test around the third week of NURS 101. Retakes are given a week after

  3. CSN Fall 2015

    ViperJustin replied to PrayingToPass's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Yes. The test consists of nursing related math. So lots of knowledge about drip rates, converting sizes (like ml to oz or something like that), as well as other things. You get a BASIC calculator to...

    I was an alternate for the Spring 2015 program. I just barely missed the cut. But I easily made it this time around. Anyways, DONT give up hope. How many points did you have? If you make an...

  9. CSN Fall 2015

    ViperJustin replied to PrayingToPass's topic in Nevada Nursing

    I just signed up for the Toolbox class that will be held this summer. I took it over Christmas break and it was great. I highly recommend it for anyone going into the program this fall. NURS 285...

  10. CSN Fall 2015

    ViperJustin replied to PrayingToPass's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Some alternates found out a month or more in advance whether they got in or not. I was told the Thursday before school started that I didn't make it. So I was doing almost everything that everyone...

  11. CSN Fall 2015

    ViperJustin replied to PrayingToPass's topic in Nevada Nursing

    We will see each other quite a bit during the meetings prior to entering the program. I know a lot of cohorts use Facebook to keep in contact with each other. So that's always an option. Im guessing...

  12. CSN Fall 2015

    ViperJustin replied to PrayingToPass's topic in Nevada Nursing

    This is my second time waiting. Last fall, the wait felt like 6 months. Unfortunately, I was chosen as an alternate and then just missed the cut off. So I guess some advice is that if you're chosen...

    ViperJustin replied to PrayingToPass's topic in Nevada Nursing

    I wouldn't be worried about the work load. Everyone will be just as stressed out as you. Some show it more than others. Something I used to hear in the military was: "Embrace the suck." In other...

    ViperJustin replied to PrayingToPass's topic in Nevada Nursing

    I didn't make it into Spring 2015, but I'll be submitting my packet in for this Fall with 38 points. I was an alternate, with 23 total points. I knew my chances were very slim, but it was worth it...

    ViperJustin replied to mamacruz87's topic in Nevada Nursing

    While signing that "Alternate sheet at the orientation, I tried to do a quick count of how many people were on it. Looked like about 40 or so to me. But, how many were FT/PT? I also agree that being...

    ViperJustin replied to mamacruz87's topic in Nevada Nursing

    From my experiences, avoid the possible upcoming issues and report your scripts to the dean (or whoever who should see it) now. That way, when it comes up "positive", you'll already be covered INSTEAD...

    I guess I'll find out Friday. My packet doesn't have the CSN website describing where to get that info. It just says that congrats on being an alternate, that I need to go to the next TWO mandatory...

    Hmmm... I went in, showed them my ID, then she handed me the first single sheet alternate paper. Then she told me that was it, and to take the alternate packet and sign in. I was in and out in about 3...
