   Hello :) I am taking my NCLEX RN tomorrow at 2pm and I would love some words of encouragement, if anyone has any. I have been studying, praying, meditating, and trying to stay calm all week, and it really is hitting me today. I know I can do this. P...

   2011nurse replied to ceedeee's topic in Florida

   I would love to hear any opinions/suggestions on clipboards, stethoscopes, etc... Do you guys carry a clipboard for clinicals? With or without a calculator? What brand stethoscope do you suggest? Did you have it engraved? I purchased a Littman lightw...

   Sure no problem. I know how hard it is to find good looking and comfy scrubs. A lot of us started out with the basic, scratchy cherokee ones and are now trying to find more comfy and stylish ones. I will start my final year of the program with som...

   2011nurse replied to ceedeee's topic in Florida

   I also would avoid any contrast color stitching. I did manage to find a great and soft Dickies top recently that is more stylish than the usual cherokee boxy cut top. You can also wear the Karlie Koi white pants because they are all white with no c...

   2011nurse replied to ceedeee's topic in Florida

   I know that if the color is not "port wine", they will have a problem with it. I too love Koi; however, the closest they have to port wine is the color you mentioned, and it is not the correct color. I even had my last clinical instructor in NP2 stat...

   For those wondering about the CPR class. I just finished up NP2, and last year when I was waiting for orientation like all of you, I went ahead and took the CPR class. Most of the students at orientation already had completed the CPR class prior to...

    2011nurse replied to ceedeee's topic in Florida

    For the calc test you are allowed to use a BASIC calculator (add, subtract, multiply, divide, square root), our professor provided us with calculators in NP 1. In NP 2 we can use our own, but they have to be basic ones as well. For the clinical calc...

    2011nurse replied to ceedeee's topic in Florida

    Hello :) Just to calm some fears for those who are alternates. I think you still have a good chance of getting in. I started the program, Fall 2009, and at my orientation, there were 8 people who had accepted their admission to the program, but did n...

    2011nurse replied to kristykat's topic in Florida

    If they don't accept it, then take the CLEP exam for the course, if it is offered. That sould satisfy them. :)

    Hello :) I am currently an HCC nursing student and I wanted to let you all know who are applying for Fall 2010, that last year, the application deadline was January 15th, the committee met early March, and I received my acceptance letter by the end o...

14. Need help deciding which HCC campus to apply to!

    2011nurse replied to Hopefulin10's topic in Florida

    Hello, I am currently in the Dale Mabry day program. I know that instructors do switch from day/night and also campuses. We have an instructor from Plant City nights, for our day section for this semester at Dale Mabry. I would apply where you want t...

15. Fellow student is....a little stinky

    2011nurse replied to wants2BRN's topic in General Students

    I do not find this topic offensive at all. Honestly, I don't think anyone of us, patients included, would want to be surrounded by heavy body odor; however, I think the appropriate way to handle this situation is to remove yourself from it. In a clas...
