I am currently in the RN to BSN Program. I am looking to see who else is currently in the program or just finished so we can share some experiences as we go through it! I just finished Technical Writing and Transition to Professional Nursing. They were the easiest As I've ever received. I struggled with meeting deadlines though. You really do need to stay on top of assignments and not wait until the last minute like I did a few times. I found the courses easy as long as you completed everything. I also thought the content and assignments were great. I learned a lot. Grading was easy as long as you follow the rubric.
I start Legal Policy and Promoting Healthy lifestyles next on July 3rd. Has anyone taken these? Legal sounds intimidating but I'm hoping it's not too bad. I like that it uses the same book we have already purchased for Transition to Professional nursing.
Hi there. I also started my Capstone August 14th. I am quite unsure of what they want in the weekly journal for sure! How are you coming along?
I see you got your BSN, wondered if you could tell me how Capstone was for you?? I just started it and the directions seem very vague. Journal topic, key points, discussion boards with all these citations, powerpoint with presentation and APA paper. I am at the very end of the program, have done well all A's except for Research but now feel a meltdown coming due to Capstone. Any advice?? Lj
Capstone sucked actually because you don't have direction. I made a 100 in it though. It isn't hard, but they give you absolutely NO direction so you are 100% on your own!! It is frustrating, but you will be fine!
Hi! I just completed Capstone about 3 weeks ago and have completed my BSN requirements at UTA. In my opinion, Capstone was the easiest class of the program. I blew it because I fell behind on week 2 and submitted my journal and assignment more than 5 days late so received a 0 on both assignments. I was SO worried I'd have to drop the class, but I got 100 on every single other assignment and ended up with a high B. The grading was so easy. A couple of the assignments were just in reference to old assignments in the program. It was a great "coming full circle", reflecting on the experience course. Should be an easy A for you if you can keep up. Good luck!
I have no idea what they're talking about when they say Nursing Education, Nursing Administrator, or Nurse Practitioner for Module 1. Just want to get this stuff done!
