How was the ATI one? We have to pass either the ATI final or HESI final to graduate.

Were you able to take all your courses online? I am currently on the on-campus BSN program.

Has anyone taken NURS231 through portage learning? I’m very curious about it and I know they work pretty good with students. any advice and tips would be very appreciated.

Message me I may be able to help you. Are you still on AD? I’m a reservist so I understand your situation.

How was the pathophysiology course? I’m debating on taking it. I wanted to start this may . Would I be able to finish by august? How were the exams and assignments?

I was planning to take patho online with them, has anyone took this course?

I'm in the BSN program right now. I'm thinking about doing the online program after I graduate and start working. How are you guys doing in the program?

Hey! I am in the first semester right now and it is great. Very challenging but doable. We have classes like basically every day (weekends off). Due to the COVID-19 clinical's and all classes are all online but you guys hopefully will get to do clinical's at Jefferson Park Nursing Home in Dandridge. We only did one rotation but it was such a great experience. Brush up on math skills, you will need to pass a medical dosage exam (it's not hard but if math is not your cup of tea like me then start prepping ahead of time). Instructors here are really the best, they care for you and are your biggest cheerleaders. They want to HELP. Do yourself a favor and start watching videos on how to test take in nursing school. IT IS DIFFERENT MONSTER coming from doing pre-reqs. Not to scare you, it's just a new transition. Simple nursing, Level up RN, Registered Nurse.com are excellent resources I use. Get black non-porous shoes ahead of time to break them in and compression socks, you will be on your feet for long periods of times during clinical. Get a penlight you will need that for health assessment (amazon have the best bargains). SAVE your MONEY nursing books are expensive and yes you will need some of the books but NOT all. Msg me and I can give you more info on that. Make a good group of friends that can help you all to be accountable for things. It's fast paced so ensure you get a good planner to plan all the exams and assignments. School is nice small campus, Jefferson city is a nice small old town. Not much to do but since your in nursing you'll always be studying LOL. but Knoxville is about 40 mins away, and morristown is maybe like 20 mins away if you want to explore and eat good place. Last of all, stay motivated. Ensure you get enough rest, time for self and family and eating well. Trust me easier said than done. But I notice a lot people (including myself) struggled at times from not following those basics. Ensure you set aside time to study everyday but that is why I say take care of yourself first because trying to study when you feel like junk, will not help. I hope this helps and again msg me if anything! I look forward to meeting you on campus in fall!

Have him get with his professors ASAP. Print the syllabus out and literally recite that thing. Ensure he knows what is expected from the class and what he expected to know for the classes he is missing. Also, if he has a good cohort he can ask a friend to record the lecture (please ask for permission first). Having a good planner also makes a big difference so as he is gone from a class he knows what he has to get done. I have used this planner and it has made such a big difference in my daily busy routine. Organization I found in nursing school is one of the most overlooked concepts that people don't realize it is very critical. Either plan to fail or fail to plan. Best of luck to your son in nursing school! https://www.leveluprn.com/pages/study-planner

I forgot to also mention that I use picnomic and simple nursing to help retain and understand the information. It really breaks it down to simple terms.

I am in the same position as you. My health assessment instructor is great and at least kind of covers what to read and know. For sure know the nursing process, patient safety and etc. I'm sure that are some of the basics you guys went over.

Hey! that's awesome. where did you get your bsn degree at? How did you like Norwich University? I'll be attending in spring.

Good Morning Nurses, Has anyone completed the nursing program at NU or currently in the program? I got accepted and wanted to know more about it. I'm super excited. Also what are the job outlooks in Vermont and starting pay for a new grad nurse?

Have you found a job in vermont?

I just got notified that I got into the traditional BSN program for Carson Newman! Has anybody else got accepted into Carson Newmans Nursing program? For current or previous nursing students, what is your input for the program? What Can I prepare for? Any tips or advice?
