I forgot to say that I took mine at my local library, it is free and I could go anytime during normal business hours. It was helpful for me to not have to make a specific appointment for the exams.

The exams are proctored, don't know why because they are open book but I guess they want to make sure it is you that has taken the test. There are two tests a midterm and final. Again if you do the assignments and the practice tests you have all you ...

Barb, Don't let this hold you back, you can do it. I agree with mom2michael the U of Utah Stats class gives you all you need to pass. It is well written and you can redo assignments to get the grade you want. Most, if not all, of the "math" portion i...

Hello everyone. I am having a heck of a time getting the nursing recruiter to call or email me. I applied for a PRN position on a LDRP unit about a month ago and have not heard anything. The site says my application is being considered but I would li...

Thanks everyone for giving great advice. I was worried that I would put them off by hounding but it sounds like thats what it takes. I would like to talk with the hiring manager but it is a locked unit and I will respect that. I will just keep callin...

Am I thinking wrong? A graduate degree is a MSN which is what most if not all CNM programs offer now. I know in the past that you could finish your CNM but would have to finish a few extra classes to actually have a MSN. Frontier used to be this way ...

I am a childbirth educator and I have been setting aside that money to fund my education. I will continue to hold class while attending Frontier and hope to not have to take loans out. We shall see.

Shannon and Jen Congratulations!!! So excited to meet all of you. Have a great night.

Good luck everyone! :)

Goozgog- I am not sure yet what hotel I will be staying in. I have never been there so need to do some research. Where are you staying? I would love to meet and look around the city before heading off to Hyden. For all of you waiting to hear on word ...

I will be arriving on the 30th. Coming from Denver and it seems flights are always delayed so I didn't want to take my chances going in on the 1st especially this time of year. I will be staying in a hotel Sunday night and hoping to see a little of t...

I am dancing on the ceiling! Just got my acceptance today for class 64. Looking forward to meeting you CNM2B.

Goozgog, Hello, I hope to be there with you at Bound in December. I am in sort of the same position as you and if you don't mind I will share my thoughts. I have been a postpartum nurse for over 4 years, this last year I have been working at a free s...

Another great thing about Frontier is that you can do your clinicals anywhere you want. You do not have to stay in one place for all of your clinicals. I think it is a good idea to preceptor with a couple of different people so you can see different ...

Congratulations! I finally decided to do it and hope to have my application sent by the end of the week. I am really excited! Maybe we will see each other. Wish you the best.

I am sorry that your nursing introduction to L&D has been so traumatic. I did pp for 4 years and did enjoy it, our max was 4 couplets. 5 couplets are a lot and I think you will find the same frustration that you are in now, no time with patients ...

From a child of a teen mom. Every girl in this situation has to find within themselves the right thing to do. It is a very difficult decision and choosing either adoption or raising the child should be respected. My mother chose to raise me and she w...

kaceface, Hello, look into the programs and find out what their focus is on. I have a few friends that have gone to the brick and mortar school associated with a hospital and they are getting a very medical based training, not much support for out of...

I agree that if you are not comfortable with doing this that you should not be forced to do it, but it does sound like they are understanding of those who choose not to have it done. Personally I do not have a problem with it and welcome the learning...

Belinda, Really the Utah one isn't too bad. It is all open book and very easy to follow. It is written in a very easy to understand way. It does cover a lot of material but they have done a great job of putting it together. I heard that Frontier was ...

I am taking mine online with the U.Utah. This was a recommended class from Frontier. Here is the link, I am taking the PSY 3000 Statistical Methods in Psychology. http://continue.utah.edu/distance/online.php

I took my midterm and I think it was very fair. I have not received my grade back but expect to have a good grade. I am embarrassed to say I started the class in August. There has been a lot going on and I didn't plan as I should have. I am now hopi...

Congratulations! That is so exciting! I am sorry about your daughter I hope she is well soon. I have not completely decided when I want to start. I am thinking of applying for Bound that starts in September, December, or March'ish. I do not see a Fro...

I am taking the U.Utah one now. I have been pleasantly surprised. It is written very well and easy to understand. It is a self paced program and that has been my only hang up, I keep procrastinating. I will be taking my midterm this week so I will le...

I talked to Frontier about this awhile back and they said that they would accept a person without L&D experience but sometimes those people had a harder time finding preceptors. You should talk with the programs you are interested in and let them...
