I am about to enter into my last semester at Cy Fair nursing school, but I just wanted to say it is highly unlikely there will be a lot of people with the same points. The HESI grades will be what...
My instructor told our class the other day that you need to follow your passion. She stated if med/surg is not your passion-THEN DON'T DO IT! I went into nursing school to be a L & D nurse in...

We took Pharm this past semester along with Med Surg II. We had to take it online-we weren't given a choice. It was pretty easy, though. Much easier than Med Surg! Ms. Rooney "taught" it online....
Cy Fair is NOT a six semester program. I know, because I am starting my fourth semester there. If you start in the spring, it is 5 semesters (One semester is a 8 week summer semester) and if you...

I am starting clinicals there on Thursday. I went for my orientation today. It seems to be a very busy hospital. We were told it is a "mini Ben Taub". I don't know how the nurses are, but I have...
I had a "bradley" birth. What I took from the 12 week class was that I am an informed consumer. I have choices regarding my birth and If I don't want to be hooked up to a fetal monitor or have an IV...
You don't need it. I went through A & P I, II and Micro at HCC and got A's in all three classes without having taken BIO. I am in nursing school right now, though at Cy Fair, and I have to tell...
I had a water birth with my third baby, and it was by far the BEST birth out of the three. I had an epidural with the first, an intervention free hospital birth with my second (they were both...

Well, at Cy Fair we had to have all three Hep B shots before we started classes. We didn't even go to clinicals our first semester, but we needed all three shots before we started. CPR is for...
