It would really depend on who decides to do the last semester during the summer, and who decides to do it in the fall. I imagine there would be people doing both. There are rules about what your grades have to be to take summer nursing courses, too.

Maybe Fall is best.

First you need to join the U of Memphis group to be able to join our page. Which I think is kinda cool because it ensures we're all U of M students!

I am in the same boat. I am accepted into both as well. I would have to do the 12 hours then apply to early progression into clinicals at Baptist. So it is a bit of a gamble if you don't do well in Patho (if you take that first semester).

My friend is finishing up her first semester at LSON and didn't like it. It is a lot of work that they pile on you the first semester but it is doable. There just was stuff that she felt uncomfortable doing such as breast exams with classmates, playing pretend with the sim dummy while the other classmates watch you on a flat screen in another room just to judge you on everything you are doing wrong.

I have no clue what I am going to do. I am 50/50. I may pay the $100 admissions fee and go to orientation at Baptist just to get some info.

If you choose Baptist I would make sure you get a definite clinical start date. I've heard of many people having to wait up to 2 years just to start clinicals.

Good luck!

I heard that too. And also weigh your options as far as expenses. Baptist tuition is just a little bit more than lowenberg
