We basically taught ourselves Clinical Calculations. It's one day a week for 50 minutes, almost the entire class session was spent going over problems we had done for homework. I don't ever recall an actual lesson.

There are a few great teachers and a few not so great. The clinical sites are quite a trek, as most things are up in that area. The first semester clinical is in a nursing home, you could be assigned to one of four facilities. One is right down the street from campus and the others are between 30-60mins away. The second semester is at a hospital in Oneonta about 30 minutes away. The second year of the program the clinicals are in Cooperstown which can be a pain.

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. Was the Clinical Calculations course hard? as far as I know, I check on the course online for clinical calculations and in order to pass the class it basically counts on the final which you have to get a 90% or better on and only have 2 attemps.

Yes you need to get a 90 or better but it's only 10 questions, so you can get 1 question wrong. We had our class on campus because as far as I know only the RN-BSN online program is online, the actual Associates Degree program is on campus. The exams are online but they are timed.

The cumulative final that you have to get a 90 or better on is only 10 questions? Are you allowed to use a calculator in the class/ on exams? Has anyone failed the class? and is it a hard class? Did you have to take ALTH 100 along with clinical calculation and the 2 nursing classes your first semester? if so was it all manageable?

Sorry for shooting all these questions at you and thank you for the info.:)
