1. CON withholding proof of graduation!!!!

   KelERnurse replied to KelERnurse's topic in General Students

   It's not just a class it's a month long submission of assignments, then a class, and two readiness tests. I have not received any of this in writing (other than a one page checklist of tests) unfortunately, which further adds to my suspicion that the...

   No, it's a BSN program. Thank you for sharing these links! HCC is proof that unethical decision-making can ruin a school's reputation quick.

3. CON withholding proof of graduation!!!!

   KelERnurse replied to KelERnurse's topic in General Students

   Thank you!! Unfortunately it's not just a short course (if it were I would probably just knock it out) ... its a 2 week long submission of daily 75 Qs along with proof of remediation, 75-100 question test every other day (both have to be within passi...

   Thank you so much for your inspirational post! You make great points.

5. CON withholding proof of graduation!!!!

   KelERnurse replied to KelERnurse's topic in General Students

   Congratulations on passing!! I agree with you. The Kaplan review was a huge waste of time. I think it would be more logical to provide a course on test taking strategies at the beginning of the program... I tried to make Kaplan work for me. I used it...

   KelERnurse replied to KelERnurse's topic in General Students

   To be more clear -- said NCLEX preparation is not a course. We are being required to submit practice exams nearly every other day AND submit DAILY 75 question tests... must pass all tests and show proof of remediation. Then at the beginning of June t...

   KelERnurse replied to KelERnurse's topic in General Students

   Yes! You hit the nail on the head! It's frustrating having evidence that shows high probability of passing and still being treated similarly to a rebellious teenager that doesn't want to do their homework - absolutely ridiculous. Not to mention feel...

8. CON withholding proof of graduation!!!!

   KelERnurse replied to KelERnurse's topic in General Students

   Indeed, that is probably the case. In my opinion, a better and less stressful route would have been to allow students that were successful on both exams to continue on their plans of study that we created at the beginning of the semester... And offer...

   KelERnurse replied to KelERnurse's topic in General Students

   Thanks for the encouragement. That is a great pass rate! Our average for the last 5 years is a little over 85% and last year was a few points higher.. I do understand the school wanting to do better, especially since I want our school to do better - ...

    KelERnurse replied to KelERnurse's topic in General Students

    Thanks for the feedback. From my understanding, they will withhold the AOG until we are determined to be ready to sit for NCLEX. I think there is yet another exam we have to take in June. So I'm pretty sure they are going to deny us to take NCLEX unl...

11. CON withholding proof of graduation!!!!

    KelERnurse replied to KelERnurse's topic in General Students

    I feel the same way. On one hand, I want to stand up for myself, fellow classmates, and future students. But as others have mentioned it's not worth it. IF I were to speak up, I would be scared that it would negatively affect my future, both in my c...

    KelERnurse replied to KelERnurse's topic in General Students

    I definitely feel like this is what's going on with my school too. It sucks, because it's not only inconvenient to my plans I've made, but it also definitely puts my class at a disadvantage in getting a job since many are supposed to start working in...

    LovingLife 123, RN - You are right, it would be easier to just comply. However, I didn't mention that we have been doing Kaplan since day one. Also in my last semester my were required to take a NCLEX prep class that counted for credit hours, and con...

    KelERnurse posted a topic in General Students

    Hello all! I am in a predicament and am not sure what to do. I graduated this month with my BSN. Now my college is forcing my class to take further NCLEX preparation and has told us they will not send my affidavit of graduation (AOG) to the BON until...
