  1. University of Oklahoma-Accelerated BSN Program

    boogeysmomRN replied to nicole15's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I emailed her why they're like that, she basically blew me off and said, if I tell you to study something, just do it and you'll be fine, does it matter what module or part of the semester it came...

    boogeysmomRN replied to nicole15's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Its Prater. I read she's teaching your Psych class. So yup, same person... great. I wonder if she'll be teaching ours. She really doesn't like me now, oh well. Yes, I agree, some of those exam...

    boogeysmomRN replied to nicole15's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I would say this semester was/is the most intense thing I've ever gone through, at least, school-wise. I didn't think that FF was easy, per se. Some of it I already knew b/c I have a child, but some...

    boogeysmomRN replied to nicole15's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Yeah, ours is on Friday after everyone is done. I wish they'd just share a little info every now and then. I'm sure they have the best intentions, but you know how it is, we kind of feel like we're...

  7. University of Oklahoma-Accelerated BSN Program

    boogeysmomRN replied to nicole15's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Weird right now they give us different info, you'd think it'd be standardized with such a large university, but hey I used to work with the dept of defense and nothing there was standard between...

  8. University of Oklahoma-Accelerated BSN Program

    boogeysmomRN replied to nicole15's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I can't remember the exact day we got them, but it was maybe a week (if that) beforehand. And even then, there were changes being made till the last minute and even after we started. And for the...

  9. University of Oklahoma-Accelerated BSN Program

    boogeysmomRN replied to nicole15's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Oh really, shoot, I just assumed you guys would only be taking 3 b/c we are. At least that is what is on the schedule. Clinical III, Psych nursing, and A&C II. This is one less than the regular...

    boogeysmomRN replied to nicole15's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I am finishing up my second semester too, I don't know if they changed the format or not, but I heard they did, at least compared to last semester student's perspectives. Supposedly they re-worked...

    boogeysmomRN replied to nicole15's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I posted this in a different thread.... I won't lie, its intense at times. It was pretty overwhelming those first 3 weeks. I am still overwhelmed a lot. But this is how the week goes: Mon - lab for 2...

    carlyfry - do you recall if the objectives were a pretty good indication of what we really should know? I'm a second semester-er. So I haven't taken the first exam yet... that's tomorrow. On the...

    boogeysmomRN replied to nicole15's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Are there any 2nd semester students that know when we get our info?? I called the mailbox was full. No one in my clinical group heard anything either. Like, we have no idea when our clinical lab day...

    boogeysmomRN replied to nicole15's topic in Online Distance Learning

    The email sent out to the SD students said that the facility is closing in the Spring, no specific month or date yet. So if they do know when/where we'll be going, they have no yet shared the...

    boogeysmomRN replied to nicole15's topic in Online Distance Learning

    There is a gal in my cohort who works 3-4 12 hour shifts as an EMT still. She's surviving, although I think she's the exception to the rule. She gets this stuff without even thinking, since she's...

    boogeysmomRN replied to nicole15's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Looking back on it all, it wasn't terrible. And I survived! :) So that's a plus. deemalt is right, I was completely overwhelmed those first 3 weeks, just getting used to the schedule. And we...

    boogeysmomRN replied to nicole15's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I also suggest getting the book package. I can't tell you how convenient it is to copy/paste pictures, diagrams, text, etc. When you make up your own study guides. Also, it is super easy to tote...

    boogeysmomRN replied to nicole15's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I think its totally doable, as long as you have a good support system. I fortunately do, so I feel that even when I am away, my son is being cared for by people I trust. There are many moms in the...

    boogeysmomRN replied to nicole15's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Preclinical time length depends on your instructor, some make you meet with them, others let you pick your own patient. Either way you do the research on your own time before clinical. It took me a...

    Yes, you'll need the BLS version. Should be around $65. Congrats

    boogeysmomRN replied to nicole15's topic in Online Distance Learning

    For the Fall 2008 cohort, we got our emails 5 days before the scheduled open house. I know it doesn't leave much time in between, its just how it works. When you get in, you'll just have to get used...

  22. What do we REALLY need to be successful during school?

    boogeysmomRN replied to blessedx2's topic in General Students

    I carry my laptop everywhere. But that's because our books are electronic (part of the book package - we also got the hard copies). I don't ever really have to carry any books, except for the...

  23. my heart is breaking

    boogeysmomRN replied to raygun354's topic in General Students

    I know this probably doesn't help, but some schools require $1000+. I would really try talking to someone at the school. You truly never know what they can do until you ask. It can't hurt... Good...

  24. Rejection letter

    boogeysmomRN replied to shan007's topic in General Students

    I was pretty devastated when I got my first rejection letter. I moped about for a few days, stayed in bed a lot, started to evaluate if this is what I really wanted. And it was, so... I got my butt...

  25. is she RN???

    boogeysmomRN replied to laura06baby's topic in General Students

    I agree. I'm completely proud to tell everyone that I'm back in school to be a nurse. Its actually kind of fun. Several of my friends have gone back to school after we rec'd our undergrad degrees...
