1. Nursing Grading Scale

   Emjay274 replied to guest517's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Basically, it's this: If you got a 70, you aren't learning enough of the material. Even a 78 means 22% of the time you're just wrong. This is bad for patients. You may not even pass the NCLEX with that level of mastery.

   I would never take a drive that long if I could avoid it. If you're late for clinicals, you're going to be out of the program. Traffic is not a valild excuse for being late. You can apply for scholarships at BC. Lots of people get them. I have gotten...

   It's not official until you get that. We turned our apps in with a deadline of May 15 and got our emails on June 14. Expect it to be about a month. The group before that was actually a tad over a month. PRE-ADMISSION is what you want to see. Pre-pro...

   That's not true. It's about 40%, maybe even higher now since a class just graduated.

7. Is leaving before hurricane abandonment?

   Emjay274 replied to CNAbutLPN2be2017's topic in General Nursing

   If you're under a mandatory evacuation order, how can they fault you? The hospital in the Keys is air-transporting patients to another state, by cargo plane, so I'm sure this is resolved by now. However, your son is not required to work, and you ar...

   Emjay274 replied to AnneC.'s topic in School Programs

   There is no doing them after. If you do not have them done by the end of either the second or third nursing semester, you are removed from the nursing program until you do them. Do them before you even apply, because once you're in, you have no tim...

   Hi, so I'm in the class that starts tomorrow and wanted to give you guys some information. First, they do not round up. If you have 3.09, you have 3.09. Second, for August, our class was 6 points and above. Some 3.09 students got in right away, and...

    You may want to come up with a different pic for the page than the Nursing Club logo. The Actual Broward College Nursing Club has a Facebook page, and that could get confusing. Most other Nursing classes for BC have a FB group, like BC Nursing May, B...

11. Jahi McMath is back in the news

    Emjay274 replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in Headlines

    I'm mostly curious who is paying for all of her care. Her family doesn't have a pot to piss in, so these many many millions of dollars in medical care are being paid for by whom?? I understand the state/hospital/taxpayers footing the bill for a ch...

12. Patient is a sex offender with a tracker on his ankle

    Emjay274 replied to Alex_RN's topic in General Nursing

    Go ahead and put it in the cart, that way when he needs to request his medical records for something, he can see it and consult his attorney. He can then sue you, coworker and the hospital for violating his privacy. You guys have NO right to look up...

    Lpichardo YOu don't need to retake Hesi. You need to focus on your GPA for Engligh, A&P 1 and 2 lecture and lab. That's what they go by for points. Hesi is just to qualify. It used to be used for tiebreakers, but now they use overall GPA for ties...
