   neonurse97 replied to DeLynn's topic in Online Learning

   For those of you having issues with APA, just use the PERRLA formatting software by downloading it to your computer. I graduated from Capella last year, RN-BSN Magna cum laude.

2. Capella University

   neonurse97 replied to bahamagirlrn's topic in Online Learning

   I have finished the program, however I chose the traditional 10 week classes so I don't know much about the flexpath. I thought the program was great! Most of the instructors want you to succeed and will respond to any questions you have within 24...

   No clinical component. I'm completing the Capstone in a few weeks.

4. Accepted to Capella University RN to BSN program

   neonurse97 replied to neonurse97's topic in Online Learning

   Three classes might be difficult since you will be writing many papers.

5. Accepted to Capella University RN to BSN program

   neonurse97 replied to neonurse97's topic in Online Learning

   Yes, they offer a flex path option where you can pay a set fee and take as many classes as you want.

6. Capella RN-BSN

   neonurse97 replied to DeLynn's topic in Online Learning

   I have four classes remaining in the RN-BSN program. I would not give the program a bad review at all. I actually enjoy the program. I would advise you to consider enrolling into the program which is nationally and regionally accredited.

9. Relocating to Houston!

   neonurse97 replied to quittaRN's topic in Texas

   Here a list of great suburbs to consider near Houston: Missouri City, Pearland, Sugar Land. Lots of TMC employees live in Pearland which is 20 min from TMC hospitals with no traffic. Consider night shift so you don't have to deal with rem...

    Pearland (west) is a great suburb with nice homes and apartments. It's about 20 min. from TMC Memorial Hermann with no traffic.

11. If you can't pass the NCLEX after three attempts....LVN license only!

    neonurse97 replied to neonurse97's topic in General Nursing

    I have my opinion and you have yours. I see nothing wrong with allowing someone who can't pass NCLEX-RN to take the NCLEX-PN and give them the license if they pass. I know several people who have done this. Again, my opinion. Moving on...

12. If you can't pass the NCLEX after three attempts....LVN license only!

    neonurse97 replied to neonurse97's topic in General Nursing

    Again, no one should be allowed multiple attempts (more than 3) at passing the NCLEX-RN. Remediation should be mandatory after that many attempts. Something is clearly wrong. If the profession is to become elevated, BSN minimum, then NCLEX_RNmax a...

13. If you can't pass the NCLEX after three attempts....LVN license only!

    neonurse97 replied to neonurse97's topic in General Nursing

    My thing is that if this profession is all about being elevated (BSN minimum to practice), then why are people allowed to take this exam until they pass it? Are doctors allowed to take their boards 7 or 8 times? Are lawyers allowed to take the bar ...

14. If you can't pass the NCLEX after three attempts....LVN license only!

    neonurse97 replied to neonurse97's topic in General Nursing

    Forgive me but I was not trying to insult LVNs. I am frustrated that people are being allowed to take the NCLEX 4 or 5 times. When I graduated, you could only take the NCLEX three times max, then you needed remediation. This really needs to stop! ...

15. If you can't pass the NCLEX after three attempts....LVN license only!

    neonurse97 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I just read in another thread that some Boards of nursing are allowing multiple attempts at taking the NCLEX exam. Is this true? If so, this is ridiculous! If we are trying to elevate the profession by requiring a minimum BSN to practice, then why...
