1. Want to apply to OU, so confused

   mitsugirly replied to mitsugirly's topic in Ohio University

   I live in Ohio and went to a community college that is partnered up with OU. So, I know my credits transfer and I know that the 2 classes I have to take still (Nutrition and Soc.) will also transfer. A lot of the students from my graduating class hav...

2. Want to apply to OU, so confused

   mitsugirly replied to mitsugirly's topic in Ohio University

   So since the both of you mentioned that the other classes that I need (like Nutrition and Sociology) can be taken at another community college, BUT have to be approved by them...I guess I'm wondering why? Most of the students that were in my nursing ...

3. Rate my resume & suggestions

   mitsugirly replied to mitsugirly's topic in Job Hunt

   Thanks. So you don't think I should add to it anything with a description about each individual job duty right? Anyone else have any suggestions or thoughts? I would like to finish this up this weekend and start applying next week.

4. Want to apply to OU, so confused

   mitsugirly posted a topic in Ohio University

   I just graduated this spring (May 2014) and passed my boards. I'm wanting to apply for my RN to BSN program and know that everyone seems to use OU for this because of the cost. I am so lost and find their website to be the worse. (I couldn't even fi...

5. Hey so young nurses, are we really making "that much"?

   mitsugirly replied to tarotale's topic in General Nursing

   I just graduated with my ADN and sure didn't pay only $10-20k. I didn't even take out loans the first year and still owe $29,900

6. Rate my resume & suggestions

   mitsugirly posted a topic in Job Hunt

   I just graduated Nursing school and obtained my license. I'm now trying to prepare that dreaded resume that I haven't done in many years because I don't change jobs often. :) Please let me know what you think: if I should add or delete anything. I wo...

   mitsugirly replied to scaredsilly's topic in NCLEX

   Thanks for the congrats. It's been such a long hard road and probably the hardest thing I have ever done in my life...especially at my age (48). i have been checking the BON all morning waiting to see the "active" status come up and nothing yet. Has ...

   My results were available at 4pm today. I PASSED!!!

9. PVT IS DEAD! Don't try the "new" trick

   mitsugirly replied to scaredsilly's topic in NCLEX

   Now I'm really freaking out. Three of my classmates took their exam on a Friday and they didn't get their QR until Tuesday and it wasn't posted on the BON until the following day. It sounds like maybe they don't count the weekends around here? I will...

10. PVT IS DEAD! Don't try the "new" trick

    mitsugirly replied to scaredsilly's topic in NCLEX

    Thanks for the information and I'm hoping it shows up some time today. It's now 10:01am and the quick results are not up yet. I started my test at 3pm and ended at 5:45pm. So, hopefully by that time I will see something come up. This is going to be a...

11. PVT IS DEAD! Don't try the "new" trick

    mitsugirly replied to scaredsilly's topic in NCLEX

    So since I live in a state that does the "unofficial results", will my 48 hours be up tomorrow (as in Sunday)? Do they include weekends in that 48 hours? Also, is it 48 hours after the actual "time" you took the test and/or completed the test? Or jus...

12. PVT IS DEAD! Don't try the "new" trick

    mitsugirly replied to scaredsilly's topic in NCLEX

    I just started reading this entire thread last night after taking my NCLEX. It has me worried now. I know that everyone in my graduating class did the trick prior to them changing it and all of them turned out right. I failed my first try at 75 quest...

13. Normal nursing grades..

    mitsugirly replied to katestudentnurse's topic in General Students

    I have always been one of those that stresses over grades as well. I had a perfect 4.0 gpa for the last 3 years doing my pre-req's. Now it's a different story. In our Nursing, you have to get a 76% in order to continue. It's everyone's goal to just t...

14. Calling all ED Techs...

    mitsugirly replied to AlaskaHopeful's topic in Technicians

    Have they told you if you are going to have a mentor? At our hospital we have someone that teaches us (another ED tech that has done the job for awhile) how to do everything needed in the position. We are usually with that person for on the job train...

15. How much do you make as a tech?

    mitsugirly replied to RCBR's topic in Technicians

    Columbus Ohio, I believe they start the ER techs out at 10.01 an hour. I already worked for the hospital in a different position making more money, so they allowed me to keep that amount. They pay an extra .85/hr for weekends and an extra $2 for nigh...
