I am all done with the application process... 4.0 and an 88 on the HESI, all classes taken at BRCC.. now.. the WAITING process ... AHHH!! The worst part! Anyone else out there waiting with me?? Im a nervous wreck so some company would be nice.. haha

Make sure you can work ratio and proportion problems quickly. I almost ran out of time. But I'm a slow test taker. There are tons of converting between units of the metric system and know basic household conversions. Practice word problems too. They ...

It's really going to depend on your GPA and hesi score. They do give extra points for taking classes at Brcc. But it your hesi and GPA is high, you have a great chance of getting in. There are tons of people that have gotten in with out taking all th...

they definitely do not take 3.0's anymore. I had a friend that applied with me and she had a 3.4 and a 92 on the hesi and didn't get in. The GPA weighs the heaviest. Then hesi. Then they give extra points for taking classss at Brcc. I had a 4.0 and e...

Hi! I got the hesi review book from the bookstore at Brcc. It's the closest thing to the hesi that you'll find. I was so nervous for the hesi. I heard so many different things from so many people that I didn't know if I should be nervous or if it was...

4.0 and 88 on the hesi

I am starting medsurg and mental health on January 13th, and I'm a little nervous. I know it is going to be a very hard semester, and I was wondering if anyone would be willing to give me some advice?!? Are there any books that helped you out? Any r...

Thanks so much. This is really going to help me. I appreciate you all taking your time out to help and give really great advice. This is why I love all nurses

I just finished my first semester of nursing school and it feel AAAAMAZING!!! This was the hardest, funnest, most emotional semester of my life ... And I loved every second of it. The torture is real, but the reward is just as real. I have learned SO...

Oh, ok. That's pretty neat. Having health assessment and pharm before fundamentals is really going to help you out for fundamentals.

What is a part time track?

I'm going into my second semester. I'm in a two year program, RN- ASN.

That's awesome. I wish you the best of luck.

Thank you:) I am fully embracing every second of my break haha But I do have to admit I am doing a little preparing for next semester .. I can't help myself.

I am at Baton Rouge community college, in the registered nurse program. :)

I'm waiting for my acceptance/denial letter from BRCC, and was trying to find anyone else that is applying for this fall. I've made many threads trying to find people and I've had no luck, so I'm trying one more time. I found threads from the past ...

It's going great. I love it. It's a lot of fun and I'm learning a lot of super cool stuff. It's much different than all classes I've ever taken. It's not really like school anymore, it's more like a training camp. It was rough at first because I had ...

I don't know anyone personally that is applying for 2016 but if you ask around while in your prerequisite classes, you'll find lots of people. I knew half the class when I started nursing school because I did that. Haha

Thanks so much. For the videos and the advice. I sent her the link to this convo and she is taking every piece of advice. I'm sure she will do great on the next test :)

I have a friend in my class that is having a really hard time. She's studying harder than me, knows the material more than me, but she is failing the test and I'm doing very well. Does anyone have any advice I could give her? She's reading, studying...

I just got my acceptance letter into nursing school. I start this August. I just want to say thank you to everyone that posts on allnurses, it's been a huge blessing having everyone's posts to read to get me through.

Hi! Thanks so much. I'm so excited. We had orientation Friday and my first day is tomorrow. I'm so excited I don't know if I'll be able to sleep tonight. Haha. That's really great that you have a 4.0 so far. Congrats on that. A&p was the most a...

Hi. I am starting this August. In two weeks. I would recommend staying in touch with the administration. I can't say names on here but the dean of nursing is a very good person to go speak to. You can go up there, meet them face to face and talk to t...

Well... How ironic. Now you are on here complaining about them. Deal with it. If that's the biggest problem you have is that people are complaining because you walk too fast, then you're doing great. And if people's complains make you uncertain about...

I start nursing school this August, so I've been watching YouTube videos, looking at posts from other nursing students on Instagram and fb. I can't help but wonder was there ever a point where you just don't get dizzy from seeing traumatizing things...
