Who is attending the Blinn Information Session next week?

Published

I will be attending this for the LVN program. I heard that last year Blinn had over 450 applicants for their LVN program. Has anyone ever tried to get in and are trying again? Has anyone heard anything about what else they are looking for besides the top 30 test scores?

I attended this program last year. Its the worst program ever. The instructors dont really teach you, send you to dirty clinical sites. Your grades will be changed without you being informed. It was horrible! I wouldn't recommend this school to anyone!!!

That's awful! Unfortunately, there aren't too many nursing schools really close to College Station. I am also going to apply to TAMU's nursing program as well as the Joe Davis nursing program in Huntsville. Did you complete the Blinn program? Where are you now?

I completed last year. Im now transitioning. Im @ a school where other students had so much more clinical experience, and are just more knowledgeable. I wish I would've went another school from the beginning. Whats so bad, the instructors are aware that they are basically the only nursing school in the area. Thats the attitude that they take with the students. They act as if you dont come thru them, then you wont get it.

I imagine that it hasn't gotten any better in the past year either. Where did you do your clinicals? Did you perform them at one site or several? Oh, and when you got in, had you any other college experience/completed coursework? Also, what did you get on the TEAS? Unfortunately, I only have a few places in which I can attend. If I get in, I plan to work at least for a couple of years as a LVN before starting my transition in an RN.
