@Sparkle7They don't...however...it will help you answer the questions on tests. Most of the tests are styled to mimic the NCLEX, but not taken from the NCLEX if that makes
So please take this with a grain of salt...as professors change and syllabus's change...I never opened the Fundamentals book. I did use the care plan book, but got a lot online as well, but any care...
@Neon8rn2BI wish I could help on the studying...I struggled the entire time. 😞 I was given a lot of pointers by the professor but it's almost like she "ran out" of suggestions.

@Neon8rn2BClinicals are great! They do provide you with "pre approved" sites in different states. If you choose to find another facility it does take time to get those approved. STAY on your facility...
I am in the online class. We do not get recorded lectures. We are provided with power points with a voice over and some additional notes. The online course is basically self taught. Some weeks we are...

Hello all! Does anyone know where to start when you want more information about the grading system in nursing school? My question is more geared towards my nursing program counting ONLY exams for a...
I want to say yes….but don’t quote me on that. You have to make a 700 to be considered for acceptance in the program. A score of 800 surpasses courses and a 900 moves you into another
