   King's College London - Nursing Studies BSc (international) First of all, thank you for taking the time to try and direct me to the correct information. I think that my confusion stems from the fact that Overseas Nursing Programmes are still being o...

   Turns out the Overseas Nursing Programme is still offered as a way to qualify for licensure. Hope is renewed!

3. American New Grad finding a nursing job in London

   efda2rn replied to efda2rn's topic in UK

   I'm having difficulty locating the article, but it was written in 2015 and stated that the NMC had replaced the Overseas Nurse Programme with the competency test, I believe, as a part of the foreign licensure process. The article implied that this wa...

6. Reflections of your first semester?

   efda2rn replied to AspiringNurseMW's topic in General Students

   My school (3-year BSN program) operates differently from other schools in that our first term consists of a Health Promotions class, skills lab, and clinical. I feel very good for the A I earned in lecture. Clinical/skills for us were Pass/Fail and I...

7. First Term passed with flying colors!

   efda2rn posted a topic in General Students

   My BSN program takes a slightly different approach than what seems to be the majority of schools. Instead of cramming it all in right from the get-go, our first term consists of a Health Promotions class, skills lab and clinical. Even with this (rela...

8. OHSU Fall 2015 BSN

   efda2rn replied to MotoMonkey's topic in Oregon

   Math 95 will count if it is the only math class you have that qualifies for the math requirement. If you've taken a higher-level math, then that will count, instead.

9. Do all nursing schools give the TEAS test?

   efda2rn replied to Nursetobe25's topic in Pre-Nursing

   In Oregon, many schools here require no entrance exams. As memory serves, there are only 2 programs that include an exam as part of their admission requirement. They do, however, have a proctored essay requirement...

    We can't go into detail about the interview, but they asked more personality-based questions. Also, pretty much everyone wore a suit or business attire. Think of it like a serious job interview.

    efda2rn replied to iheartcats's topic in General Students

    I LOVE my brown and copper Littman. No one else has it and I have received many compliments on it :)

13. Just curious..what color is your stethoscope?

    efda2rn replied to Bubbly26's topic in General Students

    I loved the steampunky vibe of the brown Littman II SE with the copper-colored metal and had the bell engraved. I also got a matching brown BP cuff that has a pretty, swirly metallic pattern. Love them both!
