Hi everyone! I am transferring out of a Brooklyn clinical program in to SUNY Farmigdale. I wont start until January but I will be starting in the 2nd semester. Wanted to see if anyone is there now and likes it. Also want to see if anyone is starti...

This is EXACTLY what happened to me. All I needed was a 94 or above on my final to get an A. I got so BLAH'd with school by the end of this semester and I ended up getting a friggin 88. And my school is one of those schools that dont give B+'s. ...

I thought about it, but I wanted to see all of my options. I absolutely LOVE cardiac and it would be my number one choice. But I got an offer to apply to a critical care fellowship once I graduate which would mean CCU/ICU/HSU and so on and so forth...

oh mother of god i am hysterical laughing... i have 2 semesters to go too and i had been planning my party since i started lolol but that is too much... foley bags... i cant.. im all in for the bonfire... ill send my address... please invite me to ...

OK I am now terrified. My dream is to do critical care. I externed in the CCU last summer and got lucky enough to have THE BEST team in the whole world. They ALL were the most supportive group of nurses I had the fortune to be taught by. I am going...

ROFL! Take me with you! I travel 40 miles to school with my twin 2 year olds (they go to the day care on campus) and 40 miles home.. without traffic its 45 min. Then for clinical.. I drive 70 miles (hour and 15 min) there and then 30 mile back to p...

lolol no not in anyones direction... sorry if you thought that. This just brings out my past experiences... I fought damn hard to get where I am... and I know so many people that sue for frivolous things. Thats the way of the American world. I mea...

This amazes me... I love when people who fail blame everyone else but themselves. Its always the instructors fault. I go to a school 37 miles away from me because when I withdrew from my original school BECAUSE OF A HIGH RISK PREGNANCY. When I trie...

I am writing this as I sit in a Starbucks waiting for my first day of school to start. My 2 year old twins are in the day care on my campus. They only go 2 days a week but its all day. And the first few times were great (they started at the beginn...

I have this problem all the time. I became a Red Bull fanatic.. yes bad bad bad... but between working 2 jobs from home and haveing 2 toddlers and then doing homework, cooking dinner, cleaning... ugh... I just felt like I couldnt get out of bed... M...

YAYYYYYY for you and your test! And I totally agree, you react on your professors actions. If I can see that my professor or precepting nurse is just nasty... then I in turn freak out and go blank. Happens everytime. I'm super happy for you! Your...

This is a wonderfully good idea for a thread as this is definitely an obstacle in the clinical portion of school. I also find it even more enamoring that it is several make RNs who are up for precepting. I can honestly say that when I did my extern...

I find that in nursing courses as well though. I just transfered schools in to an already-formed-thier-cliques-from-last-semester class. We were reviewing things and I kind of know what I'm talking about... thanks to that awesome externship I took ...

ha! now you have me afraid to have my twin 2 year olds to turn 5. lolol Too cute.. and after my first 2 days of being in my 2nd semester, I needed that chuckle.

That does sound like it makes sense. But I had 2 different colleges tell me that as long as the curriculum matches a "healthcare" format, then youre fine. Because to be honest, I did CCConline thru Northwestern Jr College... and no where on my syll...

oy.. I am going in to my peds/ob semester now, you all have me frightened.

I did CCU as an externship in the summer. AWESOME! I loved it. If you get a good preceptor, you should really learn alot. Make sure you know your drip rates! GOOD LUCK!

thanks! and oyyyy 20 eh? you made it thru the teen years. my girls are almost 2.5 and they are a bundle of energy. keeps me on my toes though. also, i was praying they didnt make us lug the book to class everyday, but i am going to need a nice q...

wowwwww.. although crazy day, you will be happy you had it. there is no better teacher than experience. i did an externship this past summer and the preceptor nurse would leave me alone on purpose with the rotating med students in order to give rep...

hey count me in... I am totally off my rocker because I am now returning to nursing school after a 2 year sabbatical to have twin daughters. We are using Maternal-Child Nursing Care by London. 2000 pages long. They also cram Gerontology and the be...

I had Kathy Allshouse as a teacher and she was good too. I totally think the class was worth the money. Micro in my school would have taken 8 hours a week in class.. much better at home.

Hey Marci... I took it over this past summer... if the text is Micro: A Systems Approach by Cowan and Talaro... then the ISBN I have is... 0-07-291804-7 If you want, I have the digital addition.. I can email it to you. :) Let me know. Good luck! All...

Hiiiiii... I am in application state for March 07. I have transfer credits so I am hoping they will take all of them. We will see... we can pray together. lol I am supposed to be going to an onsite campus school in my neighborhood, but was told th...

NYM does hire AAS, but they have a very competitive selection. I am a nurse extern as well and have been told thats huge for your experience level. I know Maimonidies pretty well. My mom works there and alot of my good friends work there as nurses ...

Hiya! I am currently in the midst of a transfer from a CUNY to a SUNY. And that is only because I was forced in to the transfer. Theres really no difference other than BSN/ADN education. 2 year ADN programs are in higher demand and harder to get i...
