Stony Brook Basic BSN Class of 2018

t_vlet, BSN, RN · Jun 22, 2016

so for some reason I thought this whole time i had to make my schedule during orientation lol... but I got an email today saying i need to register and was given the classes to sign up for. They were Mathematics for Health Care, Pathology, Professional Role Development in Nursing, Principles and Applications in Nursing Interventions I, & Health Assessment.

I registered and see that i need clinical for PAI and it says lab required for health assessment too. I thought we only had clinical for one day the first semester??? is that one day for both classes or two days towards clinicals for each class? does anyone know? I know we wont find out the day/time until the first week but still need to figure out a tentative work schedule for my boss.

Hello all! My name is Randy, but I prefer to go by Joey (middle name) and I will be attending SBU in the fall. I am actually moving there on August 18 after my last final in MD. Does anybody have any recommendations on places to live and reasonable price or know of anyone looking for a roommate by chance? Also, any other advice one may have would be very helpful.

Thank you!

Look on craigslist, there are always rooms up for rent near campus.

Lab is separate from clinical. You will only have clinical for half a semester for PAI. The lab for health assessment and PAI are built into the didactic portion and will allow you to practice skills.

All of your class will take the classes at the same time except lab and clinical. I know for a fact that math lasts half a semester but i forgot about role lol

Hi everyone, I too have just graduated from the BBP program at Stony Brook...and am actually the person YourLocalAsian was referring to when he said that classmates had received a spot in the program the day before orientation began! I did not receive a call until late August! If you are on the Alternate List, my advice to you would be to stay positive and keep the School of Nursing informed in terms of pre-req completion and grades for any spring/summer semester courses that may be outstanding. Keep your heads up, because the list does move and you just might get a seat! Good luck!

Hi I was just wondering if orientation has occurred yet because I was waitlisted and wondering if I should keep up hope or not! good luck to all of those who got in!!

Does anyone knows what type of topic stonybrook brief writing sample interview is about?Hi, I have an upcoming interview for the two year nursing program and was told there was a brief writing sample which I'm extremely nervous about and wanted to know is it similar to the essay for the application; on why you want to be a nurse or the topic is completely different. Also, what type of Math is on the interview.

Hello everyone. I've been keeping up with this forum since it started and finally joined. I had my interview on the 8th. The staff was very friendly I have to say. The math was not as hard as I expected but without a calculator the adding and division take quite some time. It was also timed down to the second. I missed a few questions and I am praying and I have faith in still getting an accepted email soon!!

- hi i have an interview this weekend, how can i practice the math? and essay?

Anyone applying for the fall 2018 program know how long after submitting the application you hear anything back? Anxiety is already at 11 lmao... just figuring how long I have to either live like this or depress some of the anxiety before it starts up again.
