Kingsborough Fall 2014 Clinical Applicants!

Completely forgot about NUR17! ATI isn't bad just do the practice tests they open up for it, it's good practice!

We're almost there guys, keep pushing, no matter what.

It's utterly ridicoulous how this school runs itself. I was unable to get a winter class for bio 51, and it doesnt look like there are any e permits for the winter available. I'm either forced now to take bio 51 with nur 21 (overstress myself and most likely fail due to excess coursework), or take bio 51 alone (hold off my nursing career even further).

This is insane, and absolutely dumb.

@ironbound keep checking cunyfirst a few times a day for an opening since someone may drop the class. Ps. There are two winter Bio 51 classes

@ironbound can you talk to the bio dept and see if you can over tally in a class?

Ironbound · Nov 11, 2014

I tried, nothing. They kept telling me to try an e permit, ignoring me after i had told them repeatedly that there are no e permits avaible for winter bio 51 anywhere else. That department is unprofessional, and needs to be looked into, immediately. I've had half my mind rounding up some students in 18 who are in this situation (and believe me, there are alot of us!) and going collectively to the department to complain.

Bah, I feel like even then, nothing will happen. How is it that Bio 51 classes are 16 student classes? where is the sense in this? They should at least be double the size. Makes no damn sense.

It's been a consistent problem my group had issues too, some were able to get e-permits to Medgar Evers for a 2 week intensive microbiology class others had to suck it up and take it with medsurg. No one in my group postponed medsurg. I will say that it can be done but probably with some additional stress. Check cunyfirst everyday to look for an opening.

Ironbound · Nov 11, 2014

Was this for the summer or winter module? On cunyfirst, Medgar evers is showing no winter classes, at all, for anything.

nursingstudentjess · Nov 11, 2014

It was for the winter semester

Ironbound · Nov 14, 2014

Looks like its gonna be bio 51 and med surg. Just when ya think it gets easier....

Oh well, anyway the third test is coming up! We are being tested on:

Wound care

Asepsis

Heat and cold

Nutrition

Urinary elimination

Fecal elimination

Hang in there. We are almost done! @ironbound did you get a micro class? I heard spring is booked up as well.

Ironbound · Nov 28, 2014

Thankfully, I did. I did so the minute my registration opened up!
