Can't believe how competitive Nursing is in the US that they are still denying students from nursing school when there's a shortage

im from nevada! thats so cool im doing nursing as well. great video!

I randomly stumbled on this video, but turns out I’ll be applying to Nevada State College too! Thank you for this video! My GPA isn’t the best so hopefully I’ll get in once I apply for nursing school

And what I noticed before being accepted into a BSN program was that every school’s curriculum is slightly different from another so since I applied to multiple programs I ended up taking a lot of additional prerequisite courses based off of each school’s curriculum that I applied upon entrance.

Thank you for this!

I never understood Dr. Duong's grading system but he is a damn good professor!

Keep up the good work Kaynen. Keep the positive videos coming, you are an inspiration to many nursing students and future students. I am sure you are going to go far in nursing and make a great leader and make great contributions to this rewarding and challenging profession. Congrats!

Loved the video! Side note, what was your method when studying for Health Assessment? Practicing skills is a given, but I'm finding it difficult to study lecture notes for my multiple choice midterm coming up!

I’m a college freshman in California, and from what I heard from my first-year orientation about getting into nursing program sounded so rigorous! We need a 4.0 GPA from all nursing requirement courses (pre-requisites, co-requisites, electives (I believe)) and at least a 90% TEAS score! These, including clinical volunteering hours, adds up points that can grant us to the nursing program. I’m not sure how students are able to balance their school life and social life. I hate being too busy with my studies because I wouldn’t be able to enjoy college overall. Now that it’s quarantine, online classes are going to suck .-.

thank u for this video! I am graduating high school in may and will be attending Florida state university and majoring in nursing, hopefully I will be attending FSU’s College of Nursing my junior year and it is very competitive to get into with limited spots available.. this video is very motivating and informative, it means a lot coming from an actual nursing student/graduate! you seemed to be very determined in school and worked very hard to get to where u are today(:

Glad too see a male nurse I'll most definitely will be asking for you

went from a neuroscience major at UNR to a prenursing major. Luckily, all my "premed" ochems and bios transferred and count for nursing prerequisites. All i gotta take is nutrition, microbio, and the HESI. hopefully it all works out

Omggg this is giving me so much hope because we have the same grades 😭🙏🏾

Daaaang you took micro during the summer? Such a Brave soul! Ha! Also can you give some tips on how to pass the math statistics! Nobody seems to want to talk about that particular class! 😖

Interesting thanks! I'm British and will be going back to school after a 10 year career in advertising. I'm currently trying to work out the pre reqs to get into nursing school in Canada. Do you think 1 year is enough time to compete them all and get into a nursing program by September 2021? Great content as always Kaynen!

Very helpful

Great video, you are very intelligent :)

omg in the uk you only take 3 subjects from 16-18 years old and then you get into univeristy. the US seems so much harder

Canadian ABScN student here. Kaynen is right! In Canada you can enter nursing school straight from high school (you just have to get 90s on Grade 12 Bio, Chem, Math, English + two other Grade 12 subjects to get in). This type BScN program takes 4 years to complete. We also have accelerated BScN programs for students with at least 2 yrs of university education. Getting into these programs is more complicated since their prerequisites differ depending on the institution (some ABScN programs require a university-level Microbiology course, some don't. Some require a personality test, some don't). Most of the people who get accepted in these programs have already completed a full degree. ABScN programs usually take 2 full years. I had thought about going to school in the US (especially because my dad recently moved to Nevada for work). I actually looked at Nevada State College but they require some other stuff I've never heard of (e.g., TEAS test). I chose to do my studies here bc I was already set to apply to the uni I've been aiming for and didn't wanna stress my self out satisfying other prereqs.

Imagine your one anatomy class’s grading scale...but that’s your entire nursing school program’s grading scale. I feel your pain, How much I hated seeing 92% (B+) or 94% (A-). Future Grad school prospects definitely taking a hit

Hello, what do you think about west coast university for nursing school? I have quite a bit of my general Ed courses done ... currently finishing up my last few classes before I’m able to start applying for nursing schools. Btw love your videos!

In ireland our school system is pretty different. So to get into university we do 9 subjects and they choose your best 6. And for for instance you get 50-59 percent in the state exams at the end of the school year that's 56 points or 90-100 percent that's 100 points. Then they add up our best 6 subjects. The courses/major we want have specific points. So if I wanted to do nursing that's 442 points. So I need to do do well in 5 subjects. The highest points is 625 and that's if you want to do medicine/med school

I have a 3.6 😭 idek if I can get into A&M to UT in Texas

Kaynen! If you ever want to collab, let's us know!!!!! We love your videos!

No way ! I am in Reno Nevada

im currently a junior and i really wanna be a nurse. my grades are around the low a's and high b's. my last years were tragic. i never focused and im trying to now. i need help and i really want to be a nurse and idk what to do

Hi ! I am a senior and about to graduate from highschool my plan is to become a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. Would you suggest that I go to a community college for the first 2 years before the nursing program or just go straight to a University for BSN ? :)))

Hey, My second semester of pre nursing is about to end and I know you said having the minimum gpa does not mean your guaranteed acceptance. So I was wondering what I could do to become a strong applicant. I’m 19 and school is my main focus and I don’t have any job experience, just a few unrelated volunteer experiences. And I can’t tell if not having experience will hinder me or help me. The only upside is i have no lower than a b in any of my classes. Thanks in advance. 😁

My cousin told me that male nursing is gay. I said,that aint gonna stop me from being a nurse. ( I'm not gay)

My language is arabic I don’t understand english a lot but i love your videos

I’m 14 years old and I’m a freshman in highschool and I really want to become a nurse so I can help people do you have any tips?

What are your education goals now that you've completed your BSN?

if you’re already halfway through a associates degree could i potentially put my credits from my original degree towards a nursing degree?

What is your GPA before Pre Reqs? I have a 2.9 can that be enough to go in the program it self?

Is it true that Male nurses get accepted into nursing school easier? I have also heard that Male nurses get paid more than females as well. I was wondering as male nurses are always in demand, and needed.

Should I take my nursing in a university or community college, like take my ADN then get my BSN Or do my pre-req in community college then transfer to a university to do my nursing ?? IT WILL REALLY HELP to get your point of view thanks!

If your professor graded like that, why did you take him for A&P 1, A&P 2, and micro? You would’ve basically been a 4.0 student if he didn’t grade like that (Which I find dumb).

Were these classes also sufficient for the majority of pa school pre reqs

Oh my gosh 😧 how did you achieve such good grades??

Did you go to NSC? I believe that was Dr. Duong that you were talking about, not quite sure though...

I'm really worried about all the information that nursing schools have waitlisted many people? Even if I have a 4.0 will i still be waitlisted?

Okay so my plan is to get into nursing school out of two years of communty college. Is th possible??

What was your hesi/teas score ?

Are you gonna continue for NP/PA

Hi kaynen Did you have to do any sort of community service to apply to nursing schools.

If you don't mind me asking what was your GPA graduating from high school

7 Point Scale 89-92 is a B+

Hey Kanen, have you decided if you wanted to become an NP or PA? If so, why?

02:55 tell me about it i got an 81% which appears as a C + 🙁

Did you have Dr. Duong for A&P 223 and micro? 😂

My teas was 73.3%. Gpa is 4 . I dont know should i taka teas 1 more time

this is my last year of high school and my grades suck....but i really really want to be a nurse and idk if that is possible..with my current gpa in high school i’ll be going nowhere sadly😪 but like is there a chance i can be one in the future...?

How did you pay?

So did you get in to program?

Well I’m screwed only have 3.1

how old are you??
