   Thank you for taking the time to respond to me...I really appreciate it. I would rather have a good clinical instructor than lecture. I can teach myself and will make sure to email any questions I may have. I actually kinda prefer a professor that...

   I've read 1,2,3,5,6,21 and am currently reading 22. I hope to finish what is said for the entire first week by Monday but not sure if that will happen. I've done the study guide questions through chapter 6. I can't see anything on blackboard yet e...

   What day do you have her for clinicals?? I have her Thursday. I have actually heard that she is good in clinicals and not so much in lecture. Are you on Facebook??

   Ruby2623...I just saw this post from last year. I am assuming you had her as your professor for 101?? I just registered with her. Is there any information you can give me regarding her teaching style/if she is a good clinical/lecture instructor. ...

   I don't have my heart set on staying here the rest of my life for one. For 2...I plan on going on and getting my masters and using my degree that I already have to bridge over. I have spoken to several masters programs and they told me to get in an...

   nursingstudent515 replied to chicagonurse2b's topic in Illinois

   If you put on your application that you need night classes, then they will switch you back. If you have to, go to the office and make them pull your application and show them. They had me in the night orientation and tried telling me that I either ...

8. Truman College Nursing Students starting Fall 2011!!

   nursingstudent515 replied to chicagonurse2b's topic in Illinois

   I personally don't buy used books. I don't like having people highlight stuff that I find is common sense or not important and then my eyes keep going to that stuff. Anyway...I bought them at the bookstore and wish I would have waited. My mom is p...

   Yeah...most people I've talked to don't have the flu or the H1N1 yet...I know I don't. I was told they will be available sometime in August/September.

    nursingstudent515 replied to chicagonurse2b's topic in Illinois

    I'm pretty sure the program only starts once a year...in the fall. Deadline is usually February 1st of that year. You have to take a Compass Reading test and score 90 or higher on it. It is not timed...I got a 99. I honestly felt like I could hav...

    nursingstudent515 replied to chicagonurse2b's topic in Illinois

    I got accepted the first time I applied. I do have a 4.0 in all my pre-reqs and all my co-reqs. And I have taken advanced science classes and already have a bachelors degree. I don't think it's very difficult to get in if you do the work and get g...

    I went to the uniform place on Elston and the people that work there told me they are going to be at our orientation on the 15th and fit us and we order the uniforms then. This was, of course, after the nursing department told me to go over there an...

    nursingstudent515 replied to chicagonurse2b's topic in Illinois

    I didn't get the flu shot or the H1N1. I was told they were seasonal and would not be available until August/September. The department should know that but I wouldn't put anything past them

    nursingstudent515 replied to chicagonurse2b's topic in Illinois

    I will also be starting the nursing program in the fall. Truman seems to be very unorganized and I hope it gets better. As for all the health stuff we had to turn in...all I can say is I'm thankful for insurance. Everything cost me $10 :) Good lu...
