I'll see you in the ICU!

That's it, I'm cursed.

You are not going to believe the latest news on the "become a licenced RN" front.

I got a letter from the CA board of nursing that states Columbia transcripts don't reflect sociology and psychology courses. Well, this doesn't suprise me since I haven't taken those courses there.

So, my application didn't say anywhere I needed to prove courses as prerequisites; I figured that since I have a BSN that they'd just KNOW that I did those things...but oh...not so.

So, after being on hold and treated rudely all morning, I've found out that If I can get them transcripts that show these courses, I might hear back from them as soon as FIVE WEEKS from when they RECEIVE THE TRANSCRIPTS.

This might not sound so bad to you...but add to this the fact that I need to request transcripts from my other campus to be sent, for them to process them...and Oh yeah...I HAVE NEVER TAKEN SOCIOLOGY.

So now, the mad scramble to find a sociology course in the summer, that hasn't already started, that won't end in december, that isn't 400 miles away.

I've pretty much lost my spot in the Columbia anesthesia program, I have lost my residency at Kaiser which starts in August...

I'm fucked is the short answer.
