UF accelerated BSN 2021

Published

Hey everybody! Anyone applying for the above mentioned program? I haven't had luck finding any threads, in regard to this, for that specific year. I would like to find people who are so we can keep in touch through this process.

Specializes in Medical Assistant.

So I just took the ATI TEAS VI and in my results it said my program type was ADN. But I am applying to BSN programs and don't remember even clicking an option for which program type. I'm freaking out because I don't know if the schools I am applying to will need the result to actually say BSN. I have read other forums that said they are both the same test but I'm still worried. HELP

I have to take it on the 11th for these schools too. I didn’t even realize there’s an asn and BSN version... I just signed up for the “nursing” one. ?

Yeah that’s exactly what I did too! Good luck to you!

Overall, how do you feel things are going for you? Is it like what you expected? Is it as difficult as you expected it to be? Any pointers for us?

It's going (by fast)! Obviously not how I imagined it would go since we're mostly online, but I think they're doing the best they can. It's more convenient being online but we missed out on practicing skills. We just had in-person clinical and labs to catch up after being fully online in the Summer, so that was a plus. It's challenging but having a previous degree (vs. being in the traditional program) helps because you already know how to study/learn. Everyone in my group is nice and we all help each other out! 

General pointers:  Be open to last-minute changes and don't be discouraged by comparing yourself to your classmates: we're all going to be nurses anyway as long as you pass. Plan and stick to a study/homework routine because you can't really afford to be behind. also it's kinda impossible to read every single page they assign or study everything so ask your professors/past students what to prioritize. Lastly, if you get an acceptance in Feb, DON'T start studying LOL just enjoy your time off.

Thanks! Have you heard whether or not they are going back to full in-person classes in the Spring and remaining semesters? I've been following the news and I see that there has been a lot of back-and-forth between the school and professors/employees of UF about returning. I hadn't seen if they came to a final decision yet.

Did you think the TEAS was easier or harder than the HESI? I’m taking my TEAS on Saturday for UNF as well

Honestly thought the TEAS seemed easier, especially on the math section. But the TEAS anatomy section was by far more difficult than the HESI. I did take the HESI before the TEAS, so maybe I was more prepared of what was going to be tested.

For Spring we have lectures on zoom or pre-recorded links, and clinical/labs are in-person. I'm not sure about the remaining semesters. This past fall we did 3 weeks straight of clinical/labs but I think they want to bring back the once-a-week clinical like they normally do. I haven't heard anything from them yet though.

When you applied, did you put Jax or no preference?
