  1. BSHP Summer 2019 San Antonio ADN

    calcgirl314 replied to Psychnursehopeful's topic in Texas Nursing

    Personally, I never did. I did hear of one clinical group doing 1 clinical day the last week of fall term on a Sunday one year in lieu of meeting the week of

    calcgirl314 replied to Psychnursehopeful's topic in Texas Nursing

    Generally they are true to what they advertise on the course catalogue. The major issue we had was that Mental Health clinical had very few clinical sites, my cohort wasn’t affected but I have...

  3. Uworld? NCLEX

    calcgirl314 replied to Kimzie's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Yes, but I really didn’t need the assessments. I only had time to go through the questions one time, but that was enough for me. Everyone is different. For me, I only needed practice on...

  4. Uworld??

    calcgirl314 replied to Christina_'s topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    The 30 day version. I literally only used uworld for a week before I took

  5. Uworld? NCLEX

    calcgirl314 replied to Kimzie's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I only used uworld for a week. I would go with the 30 day package if you feel like you only need a few weeks to practice. My school used ATI and I got a 99% probability of passing NCLEX the first...

  6. BSHP Summer 2019 San Antonio ADN

    calcgirl314 replied to Psychnursehopeful's topic in Texas Nursing

    I wouldn’t be able to tell you starting salary because I have LVN experience, so my hourly wages are higher than most new grads. BSHP does accept CLEP for general ed classes, but not the sciences...

  7. BSHP Summer 2019 San Antonio ADN

    calcgirl314 replied to Psychnursehopeful's topic in Texas Nursing

    ICU, PACU, L&D, Psych, and OR require experience. Sometimes NICU and Postpartum have graduate residency programs, but there is a lot of competition for these specialty areas. Med-Surg, PCU, and...

  8. BSHP Summer 2019 San Antonio ADN

    calcgirl314 replied to Psychnursehopeful's topic in Texas Nursing

    The Baptist Hospitals hire a lot of BSHP students. I had an offer about a month before graduation. It just depends on what area you want to go. Some areas require experience, some areas are really...

  9. BSHP Summer 2019 San Antonio ADN

    calcgirl314 replied to Psychnursehopeful's topic in Texas Nursing

    I’m a recent grad from the BSHP RN program. I was in the evening cohort. I just passed NCLEX and I’m an RN now. I can answer any questions you might have. It’s a really good program. As far...

  10. Uworld??

    calcgirl314 replied to Christina_'s topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I just found out today I passed my NCLEX-RN exam using uworld only. I highly recommend it and will sing it’s praises as long as I am a nurse!! I passed the exam in 75 questions! Uworld prepares...

  11. NCLEX perplexed

    calcgirl314 replied to totryornottotry's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I don’t think anyone could fault you for the difficulty you were going through. Nursing school is tough and the demands of the nursing profession are even more challenging. I think you should...

  12. Uworld? NCLEX

    calcgirl314 replied to Kimzie's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Good Luck to both of you!! Just keep doing the questions and reading the rationales. Taking the NCLEX isn’t a race at all. I was actually trying to slow down a bit, but throughout nursing school I...

  13. Uworld? NCLEX

    calcgirl314 replied to Kimzie's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Yes, by a long shot! Uworld was the only prep I used. Our school used ATI and it was nothing like NCLEX. My exam was about 50% SATA. I had 4-5 place in correct order sequence, one math question,...

    I wish I would’ve gotten an on the spot interview too. I think, just getting the names of the unit managers and sending out a personalized email will help. Time will tell though!! I’m going to...

    Hi Kenya, I would wait on attending the residency until later. Usually they have their Open House for the cohort to which they are hiring for. So, this particular open house is for those who will...
