UW BSN program 2015

Published

Hey guys !

I'm applying and I'm really nervous, but excited to start my nursing program soon. Anyone else applying to UW?

Yes, I got the same answers for the last two math problems as you. I just assumed it was a he (hopefully I wont get disqualified because of that :p).

Also,

does anyone think that we're going to receive our letter earlier than April 15th?? I've looked at the past forums and it seems that the admissions ppl send it out on the last Friday of finals week of Uw.

It was something like the medication prescribed was 50mg/kg, pt weighs 25.5 kg. The medication comes in liquid form 100mg/ml. How many ml should be given? After she said pens down I realized I was supposed to divide 50 by 25.5 to get rid of kg, then divide 100 by 2 to get the answer..... This will haunt me forever! How stupid of me...

I chose scenario 3 about the 17 yr old.

Good luck everyone and congrats for being at the proctored essay session.

These types of math questions will come back in your pharm class.

It is just using rational thinking process. First divid 50 by 100 = 1/2 then multiply 1/2 by 25.5=12.75ml

Did anyone else get 11.25 mL for Question 1?

I thought that the patient weighed 22.5 kg!?

I just want to wish everyone the best of luck! The proctored essay was super emotionally draining but we got through it and that is a huge accomplishment!

Hi Shelleybaumer,

I felt the exact same way! I didn't transition well enough and/ or I am not second guessing if I got my points across clearing. I am so happy that we are done with our applications!! Now waiting...This is the hardest part!

Ugh so mad at myself I also put the decimal in the wrong spot and wrote 127.5 instead of 12.75 but the second one I said 0.5 and last 8 hours! Well now all we can do is wait and hope. Good luck everyone!!

Kaleaud-

I think we get an email on the 15th of April that will determine whether or not we get in. I think the actual mail comes around that day.

Ugh I'm so upset with myself...I had trouble with that first math problem and got the right answer the first time than changed it :(

I felt good about the rest and did pretty good on the essay. Good luck everyone!

blauren23, I did the same thing with my decimal point. As soon as I walked out I realized it.

cdo0, according to previous years' threads, everyone is sent a letter. The SON doesn't give acceptance via email/phone/etc. Last year, people got their letters around March 21st and the two years before that around April 1st. So fingers crossed that we get the letter early, too.

Oh okay, I don't know where I read that info then. Probably for a different school.

Hey, so a question for anyone who knows anything about SPU's nursing program. Do they incorporate or influence any kind of christian beliefs on the overall program? I applied there as well, but I'm not at all religious, even less Christian. I would really like to know if they instill a religious outlook throughout the BSN program.

By the way, I am being asked for an in person interview from them tomorrow..

Thanks!
