   Hi everyone, I talked to the nurse director today at Rose State, Rebecca Ray. She is very nice, and very easy to talk to. She said that this last class that graduated scored higher (she didn't say how much higher) than 90 percent (pass rate), beca...

   Do you have to have intermidiate algrebra to take nutrition, since it is a science class, or do you have to only have that for Chemistry? I'm going to have to score higher on the Compass test to be able to take Intermidiate Algebra (I just DON'T rem...

   Cynthiann, Don't worry yourself about the pass rate. Just inquire and keep your options open. You'll be fine, something will work out! :) Having said that, I have heard WONDERFUL things about Rose State's program. The LPN at my doctors office sai...

   I found out what the pass rate is for Rose State. I FINALLY got to talk to the nurse director, Rebecca Ray. She told me their pass rate had gone down to 78%, but that every school (I don't know if that's true) had a decrease in their pass rate. S...

    I didn't study over spring break either. I'm still trying to decide what to take this summer. I'm thinking of taking American Federal goverment and Nutrition. Or Chemistry and Intermidate Algebra. I really don't want to take any classes on cam...

11. Are there any Oklahoma students on board?!

    Rootbear76 replied to Rootbear76's topic in General Students

    Marilyn, I'm on page 57 now. I've been taking advantage of spring break...lol. So far it's a very good book. The guy who wrote the book gives excellent tips for studying, taking notes, and reading boring material "actively". I think it's a really...

    It was hard for me to put Intensive Care down...lol. I cried several times while reading that book. She has a way of making everything come alive. I don't really have any favorite authors. I really love non-fiction books though. I read a really ...

    Marilyn, I finished reading Intensive Care about 4 weeks ago by Echo Heron. I know in that book she worked for a doctor that was a complete butthole while she was still a nursing student. It was an awesome book! I'm now reading Tending Lives by Ech...

    I'm glad to know I'm not the only one that reconsider the whole nursing thing because of butt wiping..lol. I just have such a week stomach. Last week my cat threw up, and I COULD NOT bring myself to clean it up, I called my hubby in to do it...lol!...

    Rootbear76 replied to Rootbear76's topic in General Students

    rstewart, I have a question. Do the nurses insert all the tubes into the patient or does the doctor do that? You know it's really weird, I'm not scared of needles, or blood, or guts, but wiping a buttcrack almost deterred me from being a nurse...LO...
