  1. 3.4 gpa-doomed?

    I agree with you, this is like getting ready to watch my favorite drama on tv. Not to mention LPN vs RN! OMG I cant stop laughing, these people are nuts.:)
  2. CNA requirement after 1st quarter completion?

    Katidid114 I actually started a post about this "Should nursing students be required to be a CNA first." I find that a lot more people that I know are saying that the schools prefer when they have...
  3. Massasoit cc rn program '15

    I think letters will be sent out this coming week. Positive
  4. Massasoit cc rn program '15

    That's scary but good for us waiting I guess. I did a search on NCLEX pass rates, and it seem their rates have be plummeting over he years. I have attached a link. National Council Licensure...

    Is your friend in the day or evening
  6. Massasoit LPN to RN '15-'16

    This sounds more like
  7. Massasoit LPN to RN '15-'16

    Oh that definitely sounds like a mistake. That sounds more like the evening program. Keep in mind that the generic day usually accepts about 33/35, and it's based on failure from that space is made...
  8. Massasoit cc rn program '15

    I figured as much. The bridge students have to wait to find out who failed their exams, so they know how much space they have. Congrats
  9. Massasoit cc rn program '15

    Yes. That's exactly what it means. Congrats:) Did you apply for the bridge or generic
  10. Massasoit LPN to RN '15-'16

    Well lpn bridge usually have to wait longer for letters than the generic student,s and this because we they have to unfortunately wait to find out how many students fail out:(. Last year when I wasn't...
  11. Massasoit LPN to RN '15-'16

    OMG seriously I'm panicking now:(( I wonder how many applicants they got this
  12. Massasoit LPN to RN '15-'16

    Yes they do but check out their website because the last I checked; they only accept science transfers up to three years, unlike Massasoit that goes up to seven
  13. Massasoit LPN to RN '15-'16

    Spoke to admissions this morning and was told that letters wont be sent out until the MID May and not late April early May. I'm surmising that its because of the snow, at least I'm hoping that its the...
  14. Massasoit cc rn program '15

    I just got off the phone with admissions and was told that letters will not be sent out until the middle of May!! Somebody kill me now. Here I thought I was close to finding out, only to be told I...
  15. Massasoit cc rn program '15

    I was talking to someone from admissions about my "slow reading skills" and they suggested that I try to get a letter from my doctor stating that; that way "special" accommodations would be made for...
  16. Massasoit cc rn program '15

    I have a 4.0 GPA but I only got 69 on the TEAS (1 point out of a possible 4). That is my second time doing it and I have never been able to get pass 36 questions. I am a really slow reader so needless...
  17. LPN-bridge-RN

    Thank you for mentioning the part about humbling and peer relations. Even though I consider myself to be an introvert, I am usually quick to answer questions without regards to others in the...
  18. Who else is waiting for an Acceptance letter?

    Congrats!! I wont hear until the middle of next
  19. LPN-bridge-RN

    Congrats!!! In my honest opinion it will be what you make it. I'm almost certain that the LPN program was no walk in the park, so do not expect the RN program to be either. The fact that you just...
  20. Who else is waiting for an Acceptance letter?

    I applied to MCC in MA, LPN to RN program in November at the beginning of application; deadline to apply was February. So needless to say I have been waiting longer than most. Acceptance letter I'm...
  21. Pregnancy in nursing school

    There are a lot of things to consider in your situation; not just the time frame. Nursing school it self is ALOT of work, and depending on one's level of "smarts" it may end up resulting in you...
  22. Pay rate for new LPN grads

    I agree with the previous post, but when I was interviewed as a new grad they did ask me what I was looking for in terms of pay( I think that was because of my experience in management on my resume)...
  23. Best online school for LPN to RN

    Not to try and convince you not to go that route, but you should look at the Nclex pass rate for these LPN to RN online programs. I've known a few people who opted to do that mainly because of its...
  24. Waiting on acceptance letter

    I am in the same boat as you as I am currently awaiting the news of being accepted. It is not easy because you have to make adjustments to your life if you get accepted like working out daycare issues...
  25. GPA

    This what I know for a fact; I am an LPN who have transferred credits from a previous college to the one I am currently attending. Massasoit CC RN program in MA uses a rubric which determines who gets...
