   LauraKRN replied to miMOMMYof3's topic in Michigan

   I graduated in May 2008 and they DO say that you HAVE to be there, but...you don't. At least I didn't! I went the first day and stayed the entire time, then I didn't go back.

2. Does people pass a 75 more than they fail?

   LauraKRN replied to aereo2002's topic in NCLEX

   Every question in the test bank of the NCLEX has a certain level of difficulty. Pass or fail is determined by whatever level of difficulty you are at when you are getting 50% right and 50% wrong. Since I passed, the level of difficulty I had was at ...

3. HFCC Clinical Hair Requirements (m)

   LauraKRN replied to mybrowneyedgirl's topic in Michigan

   It depends on what faculty you are working with. Some insist, regardless of hair length or how cute you look :chuckle Others couldn't care less. It seems for me, if the faculty worked on campus at HFCC, they were strict. If it was someone who cam...

   I just graduated from HFCC and never used a rolling bag. The first semester is when you will really be carrying a lot of books. And yes, parking totally sucks.

   LauraKRN replied to aereo2002's topic in NCLEX

   I only had 5 or 6 SATA and I had 75 and passed. I honestly don't thing it is possible to determine what the level of difficulty any particular type of question is.

6. Does people pass a 75 more than they fail?

   LauraKRN replied to aereo2002's topic in NCLEX

   I passed on 75 and I was sure I failed! Looking back, though, I had such a hard time because my level of difficulty was harder! My advice is to just read each question carefully and take your time. I was told to try to guess what the answer might ...

7. Body pain as a new nurse?

   LauraKRN replied to cherokeesummer's topic in New Nurse

   My first few weeks of externing, I was SUPER sore! My calves, especially. It did go away, though. Make sure you are wearing really good shoes. Crocs don't count! I bought Nike running shoes and the difference is incredible!

8. Where to sell textbooks at?

   LauraKRN replied to shannonmarie7's topic in Michigan

   I sold a TON of books at half.com! It's super easy and I made way more than I ever would have at the bookstore.

9. HFCC or WCCCD????

   LauraKRN replied to Erica2BRN612's topic in Michigan

   I just graduated from HFCC in May. I was put on the wait list at the end of the summer semester in 2006 (so late August) and I was in the program the following Fall. While I was waiting, I took both Anatomy and Physiology courses, so it wasn't like...
