  4. Failed, nclex rn 5 times! Help?!?!

    FlyingScot replied to lystacy's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  5. Failed a class - should I appeal??

    FlyingScot replied to ineedachange1's topic in Excelsior College

    I get fighting to maybe go from a B to an A with a tiny deficiency percentage-wise but certainly not to go from failing to barely passing. If a student does not grasp 30% of the content they will not...

    FlyingScot replied to Danibell711's topic in Michigan Nursing

  7. Failed a class - should I appeal??

  8. ICU vs Step-down as a new grad

    FlyingScot replied to Capsaicin`'s topic in Critical Care

  9. Graduate School & Finances

    FlyingScot replied to Trauma_drama14's topic in General Nursing

    Although I'm sure there are people that have done it it is extremely hard to work full time and get all your ACNP clinical hours in. Every single person I know who has gone to grad school has had to...

    FlyingScot replied to rtt234's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  11. Why are the floor nurses so unwilling to teach?

    FlyingScot replied to 2bnursebeckky's topic in General Students

  12. Why are the floor nurses so unwilling to teach?

    FlyingScot replied to 2bnursebeckky's topic in General Students

    I think you are my soul mate!!! I am often described as having a hard, crispy shell with a soft nougat center. I love pushing students. Challenging them. The best part of my day is when the light goes...

  13. Why are the floor nurses so unwilling to teach?

    FlyingScot replied to 2bnursebeckky's topic in General Students

    I get what you're saying but I stand by my opinion. It has been mentioned several times by several posters that the floor nurses should not be the least bit put out by having a student assigned to...

  14. Why are the floor nurses so unwilling to teach?

    FlyingScot replied to 2bnursebeckky's topic in General Students

    FlyingScot replied to 2bnursebeckky's topic in General Students

    FlyingScot replied to Farawyn's topic in General Nursing
