  1. Indiana State University BSN students

    chaxanmom replied to EricJRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I did micro and then A&P and now patho. I would definitely do micro before patho...not so sure it's essential before A&P

  2. Indiana State University BSN students

    chaxanmom replied to EricJRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    lol...the breakdown of classes that you need...the thing you mentioned from TCN is what I meant. I thought it was really convenient to

  3. Indiana State University BSN students

    chaxanmom replied to EricJRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Honestly I think that's the best way to do it. You can always go back to them later if you decide to get the phase 2 modules from them and that class breakdown is

  4. College Network (EC)

    chaxanmom replied to Fancy Face's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I used a few TCN modules for convenience too. TCN eliminates the legwork of finding textbooks but it doesn't eliminate the middle man because they *are* a middle

  5. My co-workers think we all got scammed, Help

    chaxanmom replied to mefime's topic in Online Distance Learning

    ISU is Indiana State and yes you have to be an LPN to enroll in the distance education

  6. My co-workers think we all got scammed, Help

    chaxanmom replied to mefime's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I'm doing phase II and III at the moment. I've done 2 of the modules, I'm just finishing my first semester of ISU classes. They have real professors, real clinicals, etc. It's not a

    Oh wow I had NO idea you could get them on

  8. BSN to practice ethical dilemma - where do you stand?

    chaxanmom replied to sowelu88's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

  9. BSN to practice ethical dilemma - where do you stand?

    chaxanmom replied to sowelu88's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Well there we go, we have ourselves an issue to lobby! I live in the suburbs of D.C. so come on over and let's go to

  10. BSN to practice ethical dilemma - where do you stand?

    chaxanmom replied to sowelu88's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I don't know that there's much, if any, difference in bedside care AFAIK. The difference is mainly in how a BSN requirement affects the profession as a whole. The trend is toward more education for...

  11. BSN to practice ethical dilemma - where do you stand?

    chaxanmom replied to sowelu88's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Right but they are still included in the credit hours on these which is what we were trying to say. For example the pcc link says 55 nursing and 51 support even if you take all the pre-reqs and then...

  12. BSN to practice ethical dilemma - where do you stand?

    chaxanmom replied to sowelu88's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    All the ones I've seen have. Those courses (with the exception of the basics that you should have taken in high school) are included in the number of credit hours for the program. Example:...

  13. BSN to practice ethical dilemma - where do you stand?

    chaxanmom replied to sowelu88's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    The number of credit hours for each program is what? Sure you can take 5 years to get an AD, you can take 10 years if you like but the credit hours earned is the same and it's not the same number of...

  14. BSN to practice ethical dilemma - where do you stand?

    chaxanmom replied to sowelu88's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Same here. Mostly I've heard that doing a 2-year program full-time takes, um, 2 years and a 4-year program full-time takes, um, 4 years. 2 does not = 4 even if you want it to really reeeeeeeeally...

  15. BSN to practice ethical dilemma - where do you stand?

    chaxanmom replied to sowelu88's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    A 2-year degree has HALF the required credit hours of a 4-year degree. It is not the same amount of classes or the same amount of work as a bachelor's degree. Period. If it were then it would be...

  16. BSN to practice ethical dilemma - where do you stand?

    chaxanmom replied to sowelu88's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Ideally BSN would be a starting point for nursing. I think that would help take it from being seen as a blue collar service job to a professional job. The problem is that we are in a shortage now and...

    chaxanmom replied to EricJRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I've been looking for the World Religions one and I either type in "College Network" or "College Network World

  18. Indiana State University BSN students

    chaxanmom replied to EricJRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Same as with TCN...find a testing center and call them. You have to do that regardless of what materials you use to prepare. CLEP, Dantes and Peirson (sp?) all have websites. Not sure of the URLs...

  19. College Network

    chaxanmom replied to Laught3r's topic in LPN to RN

    I few of us here are working on it but I'm not sure if allnurses has any grads from there. The distance BSN is still pretty

  20. College Network Binders

    chaxanmom replied to SoonSurgery-RN-BSN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Yep I called them. A little hint for you...if you want to know if it's up to date email the seller and ask them for the number at the bottom of the title page. Call TCN and give them that number along...

    chaxanmom replied to SoonSurgery-RN-BSN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Your gerontology might be out of date. Mine is yellow and I just called the day before yesterday to make sure it was the latest

  22. Online Class Tests/Exams how do they work ?

    chaxanmom replied to moosiesmom's topic in Online Distance Learning

    lol...no it's not easy to get good grades online. First off, most of the time they are either timed so if you looked every question up it would take too long or it's the type of question where you...

  23. States accepting ISU...I'm posting the list here.

    chaxanmom replied to chaxanmom's topic in Online Distance Learning

    "Pending" means basically that they are working on it. I would imagine that means they've submitted the information to the BON and are waiting for

  24. Bloggers??

    chaxanmom posted a topic in General Students

    Just curious if any other nursing students here are bloggers. I just started mine a couple of months ago but I'm a total addict already! I thought it would be fun to link to some other nursing...

  25. CLEP Courses & Distance Learning

    chaxanmom replied to SoonSurgery-RN-BSN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    They let everyone know at the same time because after the admission deadline (Nov 1st was the deadline for Spring 08 so I'd imagine it will be roughly that for you too) then they have a meeting with...
