Hey there! I submitted my application in early March. My GPA for ADN is 3.5 and BSN was 4.0. I haven't heard back from the program yet. I have just over two years experience. Really anxious to hear back!
This is true. I called the recruiter about it. All 400 BSN applicants will be interviewed before any ADNs....600 applicants total. Didn't sound to hopeful for ADNs. She said I'd have much better luck looking south, Corpus, the valley, etc.

Can you give me some insight on the interview questions? I got an email today saying they wanted me to do the video interview! I'm nervous!! I haven't done a recorded interview before. Thank you for any advice!
When did y'all apply? The head of the residency program came & talked to us at clinical and said they reviewed applications by when they were were applied. I applied like as SOON as it opened and mine still says "applied" ☹ï¸

My thoughts are that when they give the patient the K+ enhancing fluid, obviously more potassium is going to exit the cell. So therefore, more sodium is going to have to enter the axon. But I'm not sure what will actually happen to the action potenti...
Say someone is hospitalized due to cardiac issues. But he was given K+ enhanced fluid meant for another patient that was taking potassium-wasting diuretics, and his potassium levels were normal before the IV was administered. What will happen to his ...
