    PirateRN_919 replied to PirateRN_919's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Has anyone ever met the math requirement by taking the placement test, or has everyone pretty much taken a math class? I was thinking about taking the placement test just in case I had to reapply to...

    WSMom, CNA I think typically the spring is lower than the fall, but I am curious too! I was telling someone else that it'll be my luck that the semester I apply the spring is higher than the fall....

    PirateRN_919 replied to Jpeters247's topic in School, College Programs

    Could someone explain how they factor in people who failed out? So if someone is in the clinical phase and fails out of the program do they give that seat to someone on the alternate list? So in...

    I don't think that there's going to be that big of a gap between points for the spring and fall. I'd be really surprised if points fell below

    I think someone posted on this thread or another that acceptance for spring 2016 was 182-214... it may have been 186. I can't

    bgo26, I actually asked a similar question about points out of curiosity to one of the health science advisors. I was told that when people have the same points, they look to see who took certain...

    Hi APeregoy, I've read a couple of posts about students failing and opening more seats in the program. Is this referring to students from previous semester failing out and opening new seats for the...

    PirateRN_919 replied to Jpeters247's topic in School, College Programs

    bgo26, will you be applying in the spring if you don't get a seat? I wouldn't give up hope yet! You may go to orientation and find out you got in! If you apply in the spring I'm sure you'll easily...

    Thanks for the info WSMom, CNA! Have you ever taken a math class over the summer-- online? I am considering that. I have taken some summer classes at other schools and lots of sciences over the...

    Nice! Thanks for the tip bgo26! Registering for the exam was a little confusing for me so I finally had to call Pearson VUE to talk me through it. Luckily I was able to register the night that my...

    Hi 22bebe, if you start in the spring, it's spring/summer/fall/spring/fall. I'm sure a lot of the people who applied, applied to multiple programs! But choosing a community college over a university...

    PirateRN_919 replied to Jpeters247's topic in School, College Programs

    Jpeters247, I asked if the seats in the fall had any effect on the seats in the spring (specifically if it decreased the seats available) and it is my understanding they do not. They said that...

    PirateRN_919 replied to Jpeters247's topic in School, College Programs

    22bebe, wow that's a lot of seats! 93 for the program? I didn't know they had enough clinical availability to offer that many seats. I thought that most semesters it stayed around 70 seats. Sometimes...

    PirateRN_919 replied to Jpeters247's topic in School, College Programs

    I talked with health science advising and inquired about the number of accepted students as well as the number of alternates for fall 2016. I was told that there were 61 seats for the program and...

    Hi gotgifts3! You're so sweet! My CNA class wasn't that bad! Since it was a night class, it lasted about 12 weeks. I think the day classes are shorter since the class periods are longer. My class was...

    Anybody have any tips for the written portion of the CNA exam? Did anyone purchase a good study book that they felt really benefited them? I'm considering that and wanted some

    I took the TEAS around Thanksgiving and thankfully got 12 points the first try. I would have loved to get all 20, but I was okay with the 12. I probably would take it again if I was close, but I made...

    I've heard a lot of people say both BIO 168 and 169 are challenging summer courses. Those classes are definitely ones you have to set aside time to study for. I'm sure you could do it! Plus, even...
