1. Can you be pregnant in nursing school?

   eLeVatioN replied to leikela91's topic in General Students

   You can do it. It may not be easy but it can be done. My school was pretty strict about absences. One classmate made it through with her pregnancy and postpartum needs. Another classmate gave birth to a baby who needed a lot of medical care and she w...

2. What the heck is an NP 1 vs. an NP2, etc.

   eLeVatioN replied to Goldenfox's topic in NP

   I have seen RN1 and RN2 in job ads which is shorthand for the years of experience. For that employer, RN2s have over 4 years of experience in that specialty.

   I also highly recommend changing your allnurses name to not include your real name.

4. NCTC 2016 Fall Entrance Exam

   eLeVatioN replied to amandahughes17's topic in General Students

   I wish I could remember what subjects were on the ADN entrance exam. What I do remember is being shocked at the cutoff score for my class's entry: 75%. I believe there were 60 students to start. That cutoff depends on how many people apply and how we...

5. The most frustrating part of NS..

   eLeVatioN replied to Heaven-Leigh's topic in General Students

   I watched my grades carefully. Once I passed the point of no A in one class, I adjusted its priority. I am happy with my As and Bs. Celebrate!

6. Please Help Me!

   eLeVatioN replied to ajgarcia's topic in Student Assist

   Go back a step and don't drop your unit labels. If you keep your labels on, you should be able to see which steps still need to be done to get what you need.

   Hi Irish_Mist, I am a first semester student in the transition program at NCTC. I also have a previous bachelor's in an unrelated field and intend to get my BSN. I am only one class short of the BSN prereqs and will have that completed by the time I ...

8. The Dark Side of Passion

   eLeVatioN replied to Music in My Heart's topic in Emergency

   You are not too old for martial arts. My father took up aikido in his late 40s and took it beyond the first degree of black belt. Yoga is a great idea too. Do what you need to do to avoid burnout. Good health to you!

9. I've been a nurse since.....(fill in the blank)

   eLeVatioN replied to meanmaryjean's topic in Relations

   This reminds me of the rap lyrics, "I've been spending hundreds since they had small faces!" I started in the nursing field when Steve Jobs was still alive. Osama bin Laden, Moammar Gadhafi, and Kim Jong-il were still around. The Fukushima Dai-ichi n...

    eLeVatioN replied to Nursetobe25's topic in LPN/LVN

    I have a BA in an unrelated field. LVN since 2011, expected to complete ADN/RN in 2016. Hoping BSN completion in 2017.

12. a "friend" looked me up on the BON?????

    eLeVatioN replied to BA.LVN's topic in LPN/LVN

    I would personally avoid a boundary stomper like that at all costs. I would also never stick around in a moms group where I am disrespected like that. Keep the friends, lose the passive aggressive boundary stompers.

13. NCTC ADN Fall 2014

    eLeVatioN replied to Shine_On's topic in Texas

    If anyone has the assignments for this week can you please post them or message/email me? I am just reading through the first three chapters of fundamentals of nursing until I can access the nursing group on Angel. I think I saw Exercise #1 on the ma...
