1. Failed twice. Trying Kaplan ?

   ljm9304 replied to catmom713's topic in NCLEX

   Kaplan was the difference for me. Hurst is a content review. Kaplan will give you the strategy to pass. I reviewed all of kaplans content as well, but focused on the questions and strategy.

3. Regions that take male new grads into L/D

   ljm9304 replied to guest769224's topic in Ob/Gyn

   I'm a male in L&D/MB. It is almost never an issue. I only say almost because I've heard of a couple patients decline care from a friend of mine, but it hasn't happened to me. Surely there are hospitals that won't hire a man, but I haven't perso...

4. Getting my Bachelor's at UOP before applying to Frontier?

   Don't throw your money away on a worthless degree from a lackluster institution.

5. Midwifery in the military

   ljm9304 posted a topic in Government

   Has anyone served as a CNM in the US Navy, or know someone who has? I'm thinking this might be a good route to go considering the tuition assistance available through their scholarship program. Would this be a good place to work as a new-grad CNM?

6. Summer Entry 2013 Accelerated BSN/MSN Johns Hopkins

   ljm9304 replied to nautica193's topic in Post Graduate

   I've been accepted to the Fall BSN program. Missed the call this morning, luckily they left a message. 4.0 post-bacc GPA (finished with half the pre-reqs), 3.6 bacc GPA, and some not-so-stellar grades from early on in my undergraduate coursework.

7. Summer Entry 2013 Accelerated BSN/MSN Johns Hopkins

   Geez, a few hundred? Are we talking about both fall and summer start dates to include BSN and MSN folks?

8. Summer Entry 2013 Accelerated BSN/MSN Johns Hopkins

   ljm9304 replied to nautica193's topic in Post Graduate

   The office opens at 8:30. It would make more sense that calls would start after office staff have settled in, haha. Also, the applicant population on this website is a small minority of the total pool, so it is very feasible that they are making ...

9. ASU Post-Bacc Nursing Program 2013

   ljm9304 replied to Kellyfish's topic in Arizona

   Sapphire is correct. Although, for the post-bacc there is no limit on how many grades of 'c' you can get. However, I think more than two c's makes it impossible to keep even the minimum GPA. Hopefully getting C's isn't a problem....since ASU only ...

10. Summer Entry 2013 Accelerated BSN/MSN Johns Hopkins

    ljm9304 replied to nautica193's topic in Post Graduate

    Obviously nothing is set in stone, but if you don't receive a call on Friday, does that mean case closed? Also, I should have asked this when I spoke to their admin office, but does JHU have a waiting list?

    Anyone waiting on word for the fall 17 month BSN program?

13. NP work in Africa - Uganda

    ljm9304 replied to SkiBumNP's topic in NP

    Diseases with no names! No way, you mean to say that scientific investigation hasn't figured it all out? Outrageous. And, of course, Africa is all the same. Cape Town isn't awesome, Mauritius just sucks, as does Zanzibar, and lake Malawi, and whi...

14. UVA CNL 2013 Cohort

    ljm9304 replied to zumble's topic in Virginia

    UVA Grad Nursing, Completely off topic.....In another thread, a year or two old, you mentioned a male graduate who works as a midwife. He was a graduate of your program, spent time in the Peace Corps, and had plans to continue working on a project t...

15. NP work in Africa - Uganda

    ljm9304 replied to SkiBumNP's topic in NP

    Not trying to be mean, but have you been to Uganda, or any African state for that matter? If you have, and are eager to return, good on you. If you just watched 'The Devil Came on Horseback', 'Living in Emergency', or 'Evil revisted' and have decid...
