htadlock93, I got fingerprinted on Jan 18 and tested on Feb 10, so sometime in between there I got my testing letter. I thought that it came pretty quick, maybe a week and a half after fingerprinting? I just know that I got very nervous that testing was so quick.

That's the same max value on the packet I have. Why do you ask?

The interview went well from what I gathered, but they still have some more interviewees to meet with and said I would hear something in the the next week or so. I liked the two charge nurses who interviewed me. They were informal and personable, but honest about the demands of the unit. It's a med/surg floor with older patients. I'm excited about the opportunity. As far as my points right now, without AP2, Micro or HESI is in the 160s. I'm expecting to have between 195 and 210 by application deadline.

I, too, am taking AP2 & micro this summer. At Nassau Campus hopefully.

Welcome StevenC. Share where you are in the process if you'd like.

It's all about putting patient's rights, wellbeing, and dignity first. That's what I kept in mind as I tested. And, btw, the only studying I did was three practice tests and I only missed 3 of 50 questions on the real thing. I spent two days and two evenings before my exam practicing clinical skills. You'll do fine.

I took my cram class in Oct '15 and tested in Feb '16.

J.molina- how long is your class?

Htadlock93-yes to being certified before applying for PCT position. Nursing will be my second career. And I challenged the CNA exam and passed both clinicals and written first time. I spent two reviewing what I learned in my weekend cram class four months earlier and did fine.

I'm looking forward to the app process and the learning involved in the nursing classes. I have an interview at St Vincent's on Friday for a PCT position. Send me good thoughts.

I'm taking AP2 & Micro together over the summer at my CC. I bought the last edition (not the latest) of each book on Amazon and have been outlining and making notecards in prep for the classes. They start in two months and I'll be ready.

Does anyone know FSCJ's typical graduating class size?

Crazy rumors! Thanks Nicolemaza for sharing.

I haven't taken classes in 5 yrs, so I can't really comment on the teachers. I hope you find a micro class to fit your schedule.

I'm taking both AP2 and Micro over the summer, hopefully at the Nassau Campus. I found an older edition book for each of them on Amazon and am reviewing AP1 (because I took it in 2011). A lot is coming back to me. My goal is to read and study WAY ahead before classes start May 19. I'm taking HESI2 early in the summer and then again (if I need to) in October.
