We have lecture from 9am-12pm on Monday and Wednesday...on Tuesday we have nutrition from 9am-12pm and lab from 1-3pm. We go to clinical on Thurs and Fri from 8am-2pm.
Some of my classmates also have to take an English class on Monday and Wednesday from 12:20pm-1:50pm.
This semester our school implemented this new policy that we have to do our ATI practice exams on Monday and Wednesday from 3-4pm.
Thursday and Friday- six-eight hours of clinicals, either morning or evening shift. We also have a 3 hour lab one day a week, but the time and day changes weekly (so that different groups get an even share of the crappy time slots).
Add in to that the fact that I work at the same hospital where we have clinicals, and sometimes I feel like I live there.
I've had some pretty long days in nursing school. But my final semester has been the longest. 7:30AM-9:30PM on Mondays with a 4 hour lunch/homework break in the middle . I also had clinicals on Wednesdays. Now I'm done...just the precepting left.
We pick our clinical day, mine happens to be Mondays from 6:30am-7pm and lecture on Wednesdays from 730-11am. We also go on Sundays to pick our patients and make our careplans, but we can do that whenever we want on Sunday.
This is the first quarter that my school is doing the 4 day workweek so we go M-Th 8-3:30 pm when we go to clinicals we will be going for 7:30-3:30 M-W and then back to class on Th from 8-3:30. I am a little worried about next quarter our clinical are M-T 7am-7pm and then class 8-3:30 W-Th.
