  3. I failed a class- should I go to Pinning?

    lizmatt replied to nursemama12's topic in General Students

    If other people who are not graduating are going I would go. I failed last year and now that I am repeating the people I am with just don't feel like my class. It feels really awkward, in the...

  4. Waiting for My Final Grade

    lizmatt replied to gillytook's topic in General Students

    That is the worst - I usually spend the entire time from the final until the grade is posted in front of the computer hitting refresh. It is agonizing and not very productive - but I can't focus on...

  5. playing sports while in nursing school?

    lizmatt replied to macizu's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Should be possible. We had plenty of people who played sports during school. We also had plenty of people who dropped the sport come senior year. Guess it depends on your level of commitment to the...

  7. Lancaster General - Anyone start there as new grad?

    lizmatt replied to lizmatt's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I still have not heard anything - so maybe I didn't do so hot at the interview. I applied for the floor that is opening in March - I believe 8 East (could be wrong about that though, my brain is mush...

  8. Lancaster General - Anyone start there as new grad?

    lizmatt replied to lizmatt's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    It was a pretty standard interview. They asked things like strengths/ weaknesses, why I want to work in their hospital, a couple "tell me about a time...". Am I planning on furthering my...

  9. VENT: Moldy roommate

    lizmatt replied to love-d-OR's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

  10. Hrsa 08-09 Nursing Scholarship

    lizmatt replied to geteducated123's topic in General Students

    lizmatt replied to Gititgirl7's topic in LPN to RN

    My roomate is an LPN, and when she came to our school to get her BSN not only does she have to start from the beginning, they are also making her be undeclared for the first year. This is crazy, she...

    lizmatt replied to hTx87's topic in General Students

    lizmatt replied to cwinny1's topic in General Students

    I moved 3 hours away to Northeast PA - I was accepted to a 4 year school that had campus housing for me and my kids - it was nothing bad with Brandywine, my school just had a better living

  16. Does anyone know if Brandywine School of Nursing in Chester Co. is hard to get into??

    lizmatt replied to cwinny1's topic in General Students

    no, it is not hard to get into. It is much more expensive than DCCC, so it does not fill up as quickly. I got in with no problem (decided to go somewhere else though). A friend of mine who has been...

  17. 2nd quarter student should i start preparing for the nclex now or wait

    lizmatt replied to Bendecida26's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    The great thing about NCLEX books is that if you use them along with your studies it can help you in your classes now in addition to helping you with NCLEX later. It has been my experience that...

  18. Can an instructor do this???

    lizmatt replied to tele jelly's topic in General Nursing

    lizmatt replied to Akkrite909's topic in General Nursing

    Look on California's department of health website - I looked around a little bit and was unable to find anything specific - maybe you can have better luck. But their nurse aid contact phone # is...

    lizmatt replied to L&DRN03's topic in Ob/Gyn

  22. getting up early

    lizmatt replied to shrimpchips's topic in General Students

    For me, getting to bed early on clinical days was never possible because I would be doing preplanning untill the early morning as it was. So there is the biggest problem - getting up earlier than...

  23. Classes

    lizmatt replied to Java Mama's topic in General Nursing

    How are you with sciences? I found basic bio pretty easy, but struggled with the A&P's . I think it really depends on what other class you would take and the time you have to devote to school -...

    lizmatt replied to NurseBettyICU's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I have noticed that more ltc's are offering 12 hour shifts & only for their "weekend program" in my experience ltc's offer 8's and hospitals can offer 12 - but there are many more cna ltc jobs...
