  1. Stress Test (aka Burning Man)

    Hospcorp replied to Nigel9's topic in General Students

    You are definitely not alone! I currently have a 4.0, but that comes with a 20 pound weight gain and absolutely no life. I'm going into my final year promising myself to let go of the need for A's and...

  2. Challenge Nursing Board?

    Hospcorp replied to cjohnMEDIC's topic in General Nursing

    Former Navy Corpsman here. Honestly, I suggest just using your GI Bill and getting your nursing degree. Challenging the LVN in Cali was too much of a hassle, and I believe you need to work in Cali....

  3. Military wife trying to plan nursing school

    Hospcorp replied to daniflorida's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I also vote for doing your nursing prereq class and improving your GPA. I'm sure you'll do well on your entrance HESI/TEAS. Don't waste your GI Bill on a degree you're not going to use. I'm also a...

  4. Nursing Instructor Anger Management

    Hospcorp replied to sarahky79's topic in General Students

    You can be charged with a simple assault without ever hitting someone... Just saying. You can even be charged with assault for verbally threatening a patient, so..throwing something with the intention...

  5. Nursing Instructor Anger Management

    Hospcorp replied to sarahky79's topic in General Students

    Ok. You can be an LPN..and be a student going for your RN. You can be a RN and be a student going for your BSN. That's my point. You can be a nurse and

  6. Nursing Instructor Anger Management

    Hospcorp replied to sarahky79's topic in General Students

    Just for the record..You can be an RN or LPN, and a student! I like this forum, but people can be a little too quick to judge and

  7. Nursing Instructor Anger Management

    Hospcorp replied to sarahky79's topic in General Students

    hmmm..Sometimes I feel like people on this forum do not realize that every student isn't 18 or 19 years old.(Not that there's anything wrong with that either) Many have have significant experience in...

  8. Nursing Instructor Anger Management

    Hospcorp replied to sarahky79's topic in General Students

    while I understand you do have some of the blame to bear, what she did was so far over the line. Again, it's assault. Honestly, I know you say you see her as a friend, but she's your instructor, not...

  9. Nursing Instructor Anger Management

    Hospcorp replied to sarahky79's topic in General Students

    Wow! Pretty sure that's assault. I would normally advocate for talking with the instructor first when situations arise, but I would be at the Dean of Nursing office in a hot second. I understand not...

  10. Fall 2017 Motlow Nursing Program

    Hospcorp replied to shippkg's topic in School, College Programs

    So...I got on the waitlist. I don't think I'll get in this year, but it's okay. I had a "smallish" breakdown on Friday LOL, but moving on to plan B. Learned a hard lesson, it's important to get...

    Congratulations! I didn't get an email, so guess I didn't get in. Congrats to everyone who

    Hospcorp replied to shippkg's topic in School, College Programs

    Who is taking it out on Nancy? I think people have a right to be frustrated...Especially with all the misinformation and incorrect data. However, it's not cool call and get upset without someone who...

  13. Fall 2017 Motlow Nursing Program

    Hospcorp replied to shippkg's topic in School, College Programs

    Instead of giving 10 different answers to 10 people, I would rather them just say they don't know. It leads to confusion, and honestly I'm over the wait and the process. I'm just going to focus on...

    Hospcorp replied to shippkg's topic in School, College Programs

    The whole process has been confusing IMO. Lots of misinformation, and it seems like everyone is getting different answers. Definitely

  15. Fall 2017 Motlow Nursing Program

    Hospcorp replied to shippkg's topic in School, College Programs

    We were told NOT to send our test scores. That they would go directly to the school. This is repeated by the testing staff at Motlow. Seems to have been a big problem, and I REALLY hope it is all...

  16. Fall 2017 Motlow Nursing Program

    Hospcorp replied to shippkg's topic in School, College Programs

    I think everyone who took the HESI on 3/8 got (in error) an email about denial because of no HESI score. However, I am concerned that GR88 just got the same email today. They should have pulled all...

    Hospcorp replied to shippkg's topic in School, College Programs

    Congratulations!! I don't see anything, but figured LPN's would come first. Glad to see you got an answer this week

    Hospcorp replied to shippkg's topic in School, College Programs

    I don't know when it'll be. At this point, I don't think calling will do any good. lol. Has anyone thought about a plan B? I'm thinking I should get one together. I have a score of 607, and I'm not...

    Hospcorp replied to shippkg's topic in School, College Programs

    My HESI score was submitted, she saw it as soon as she pulled up my name. Idk what happened, but it effected a lot of people. 3 of us in my A&P got the same email.. And we all took the HESI on the...

  20. Fall 2017 Motlow Nursing Program

    Hospcorp replied to shippkg's topic in School, College Programs

    WOW! Doesn't inspire my confidence. I guess..looking at the positive, I was able to call and get it

  21. Fall 2017 Motlow Nursing Program

    Hospcorp replied to shippkg's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey guys, just a heads up. I got an email from Motlow saying that I was denied because I didn't have a HESI score. That is not true, took it at Smyrna campus on 3/8 and received a 86. Had to call...

  22. Fall 2017 Motlow Nursing Program

    Hospcorp replied to shippkg's topic in School, College Programs

    Does the LPN program use a different point system than the traditional track? I know the traditional route max points are 600 with 75 possible quality points. Just curious what the LPN point system is...

  23. Fall 2017 Motlow Nursing Program

    Hospcorp replied to shippkg's topic in School, College Programs

    I think you math is off. I believe it's .96x300 not 500. GPA is 300 and HESI is 300. the other 75 come from quality

  24. Fall 2017 Motlow Nursing Program

    Hospcorp replied to shippkg's topic in School, College Programs

    I have a 607 total score. I worry that might not be enough, but most the people I have talked to have scores in the 560's and 570's. But, that's only like 10-12 people. I think you have a good shot...

    Hospcorp replied to shippkg's topic in School, College Programs

    I spent 8 yrs in the military as a corpsman/medic, and other 7yrs as a medical assistant. Many states allow vets to challenge the LPN test, but TN is not one of them. Working in a hospital might give...
