3. How can an instructor improve your education?

   defenbaker10 replied to TooterIA's topic in General Students

   The instructor reading the same material that the students read is a must. I also have had instructors that when you pointed out stuff that was in the book they had no clue about it. Also, I like it when the teacher relates nursing stuff to everyda...

4. NLN exam + review

   defenbaker10 replied to Readyforthenextstep's topic in Delaware

   You definitely should put some study time into it just because the points for it are used towards where you rank to get into clinicals. For clinicals they assign points for each class you have taken and also for what your score was on the NLN. For ...

5. Becoming LVN after 1 year of RN Training

   defenbaker10 replied to commonsense's topic in General Nursing

   My school has our program set up so that we have everything we need to get our LVN if we want to after the first year. The other schools in our state don't have their programs set up that way. You would just have to make sure the school offers that...

6. DTCC Stanton/Owen nursing program?

   defenbaker10 replied to Readyforthenextstep's topic in Delaware

   She probably was referring to the critical reading class. When you first enroll they usually make you take a placement test to see where your reading level is at. If your score is high enough you will be exempt and don't have to take the class but ...

7. DTCC Terry Students

   defenbaker10 replied to baglady215's topic in Delaware

   Also,Stanton is just a straight RN program. Terry offers the option that after the first two semesters you can take your LPN test and start working as an LPN while still in school for your RN. Wasn't sure if either of you would be interested in tha...

8. DTCC Stanton/Owen nursing program?

   defenbaker10 replied to Readyforthenextstep's topic in Delaware

   I go to DTCC Terry campus. The program at Terry is run differently than the Stanton campus. Terry campus they give you a list of the dates for the NLN and you pick which date you want to do it on. Terry has two sets of clinicals a semester. One is...

   defenbaker10 replied to baglady215's topic in Delaware

   Hi! I am in the RN program at DTCC Terry campus. Hoping to graduate in May 2011 (as long as I pass). I took my LPN boards over the summer and passed so I do have my LPN license now. I haven't found a job yet because all of the places want you to ...

    defenbaker10 replied to Mommy Of Two 87's topic in Student Assist

    Yes, I used financial aid (student loans, loans are all I am eligible for) to pay for all of my prereq classes. I start my clinicals this fall and have already got everything set up for my financial aid for the Fall and spring semesters.

13. Do whiners make it through nursing school?

    defenbaker10 replied to tuchipie's topic in General Students

    Unfortunately there seems to be a lot of whiners in nursing school. We had one in our micro class that would show up at least 15-20 minutes late to every class or would just skip class completely. She missed somewhere around 6-7 classes in a 16 wee...

14. I have a question on online school?

    defenbaker10 replied to hcarrollr's topic in Delaware

    Hi! I also go to the terry campus. It stinks that you have to retake the classes. If you still have to do classes online, terry does have online classes for the prereq. classes. Just the actual clinical classes that have to be done on campus. I ...
