1. The Case Against Med-Surg!

   mjs488 replied to jb2u's topic in General Students

   I have not read through all the posts so I'm sorry if I'm repeating a question, I'm late to the party. I'd love nothing better than to go straight into ICU. But how do you do it, especially in an in-demand area like Northern Ca? Not sure where you we...

2. Preceptorship Guidance

   mjs488 posted a topic in General Students

   We are starting our 2nd rotation in the 3rd semester of our ADN program and the talk of preceptorship is starting to get hot and heavy. I have a problem making a choice (sort of...I know what I would like to do, I'm just not sure how feasible it is)....

3. 1st day clinical. I know nothing? is this normal?

   mjs488 replied to Courtcatt's topic in General Students

6. Enter your TEAS V Scores here!!

   mjs488 replied to Future Nurse's Wife's topic in TEAS

   There are a couple of things you can do to increase your chances of success. One is to absolutely get the TEAS V manual and do at least two online practice exams to get used to the format. If the time factor freaks you out do NOT compulsively watch t...

8. Los Medanos for Fall 2011?

   mjs488 replied to want2banurse35's topic in California

   We are waiting to hear at CCC as well. They feel very confident that the funding will come through, but it would be great to know so that our schools (and we) can know what's coming.
