  1. CMC/CSC Certification

    Just took CSC. Cardiac Surgery Essentials for Critical Care Nursing was indispensable. Authors are Hardin and Kaplow. Cammy House-Fancher's review on med-ed was also very good. Use the test blueprint on AACN to guide your studying.
  2. Question for nurses who passed NCLEX using Saunders!

    I used Saunders exclusively. I did question after question after question; I especially liked their iPhone app and the questions on CD. I was getting 65-80%, and I passed NCLEX with 75 questions. No matter how much you study or how well you're doi...

  8. UCHSC Traditional, Spring 2009

    I believe it was 3 days a week for the first semester. No clinicals the first semester; they front-load you academically. There's a 2 day long term care experience at the very end.
  9. UCHSC Traditional, Spring 2009

    Hey there - you can take the DM straight to campus from Boulder (stops in Louisville, Brooomfield, Westminster), but it only runs 4 times in the morning and 4 times in the late afternoon/evening. It takes about an hour, give or take 15 minutes. May...
