Hi! Was hoping someone could tell me whether or not DocuCare and Prep U were of any real help? I'm in med surg and my program wants us to purchase it. I'm financially challenged right now, and wanted to know if it Really made a difference. Thank...

Hello Everyone, I received great news. After failing out of nursing program, I was allowed back in contingently as long as I challenge all successfully completed nursing courses. I would like to know if any of you think this is right?

I would have to challenge 5 courses as well as all nursing skills that accompanied the NUR Courses..I have been out of school for 18 months. I've decided to just retake the courses as the thought of having to stress and go crazy for the challenge exa...

I appreciate the words of wisdom and encouragement, thank you!!

Yes, that's the same policy of my school. I had exhausted both opportunities, but unbeknownst to me, I was quite ill which explained why I just couldn't "get myself together" during my final shot. They indeed want me to test on all prior material, as...

I am set to begin my first Clinical in January 09' I had the option of taking the first two semester clinicals together, but opted not to since I keep hearing of how difficult it is. Here is my problem: in one class, 2 out of 10 passed. I know a cou...

Hi Everyone, I flunked out due to my husband having cancer as well as myself being diagnosed with severe rheumatoid arthritis, and being placed on permanent disability. I made my DON aware of the illness in a prior semester. I needed a 78, and g...

Thanks for asking, he's improving daily. I honestly feel that what is to be, will be. There is a Higher Power who rights all wrongs, and if it is His Will, it will work out fine. All the best to you all!!

Well, I've invested so much time on obtaining my nursing education, and since there are RN's with disabilities who actively practice, I was hoping to work per Diem or with an agency, since I'm still relatively young (early 40;s). I'd like to at least...

September is my final opportunity to pass Med Surg. I' am so nervous!! Last semester my friend flunked out of school due to Med Surg. Any advice you guys can offer to help me make it through? Thanks so much for the help!!

OMGEEE!!! I'm sitting @ my desk smiling from ear to ear! I want to thank you all for the wonderful words of encouragement! I just so happen to have Both the Mary Hogan Reviews and Rationales for Med Surg, as well as the Latest Saunders Book. With ...

Hi, Patient is an overweight 43 year old female who hasn't menstruated since February. Pt is completely celibate for the last 5 years. Mother began change of life @ around fifty years old (began missing periods), sister is now age fifty and is s...

wow! i'm starting Med Surg this semester too and I feel the same way!! There's something so "Mystically Frightening" about Med Surg. Classes resume for me on the 22nd, but I've started studying already... Wishing us ALL success for the coming semeste...

I have had the series of 3 shots on two occasions, and yet I still cannot reach the required titer levels....I am about to complete my 1st year in a two year program, so, I don't know anything more to do.

LoL!!! All of the Joy you guys are sharing is Infectious!!! I am sitting here Grinning like a Fool!! . I remember this time last year, I was exactly where you are and it really is exhilarating!! It will pass though :uhoh21:. If I may offer a bit of ...

Hi, I just completed the Nursing 111 class at RCC and wanted to see if anyone else out there was in it.... And if so, what their opinion was of it.

I'm sorry for answering so late!! You may have already had your meeting with the Mildred Elley School, but, if not, the test wasn't timed and it consisted of Math (like 10 questions) Reading, and writing (you read and correct 2 Essays) Oh, and the te...

I have one friend who started Mildred Elley on May 24th, and another starting July 30th. The one currently in the school has nothing but great things to say about the program. Despite it being extremely expensive (28k), it seems like a very good alte...

I was wondering if it is possible to sit for the NCLEX-PN after completing an entire year of Nursing school? I was told in New York it wasn't possible, but I was wondering about any other states that are close to New York: Deleware, Maryland, Connect...

Thank you all for the information! The Maryland option is one I'm going to explore. Thanks again guys

:yeah:Congratulations cmmny!!!! I can't tell you how happy I am for you!! It encourages me to continue and work harder next semester....My only problem is I don't feel comfortable taking more than one clinical at a time, due to my family/work life. ...

Jposte You have the right idea!! The only thing I can recommend is to purchase a Fundamentals practice book and familiarize yourself with everything pertaining to 111. If you take then both, you're in for a wild ride!!

You are the absolute sweetest!! You have been a wonderful friend to me as well... The hours of encouragement, knowledge and Wisdom you have shared with me, have been a great part of my success thus far. You will never know the true impact you've ha...

There are many in my program who swear by doing tons of Nclex practice questions, instead of actually reading our textbook....What do you guys think about it?

2 weeks shy of end of semester, I failed the clinical portion of my 2nd Fundamentals class ( I chose to break my classes up instead of taking them both concurrently). The thing that makes me angry is, the instructor did not go by the "book", and allo...
