I remember this 2 week wait just a year ago. It's really stressful. Good Luck to those who get in; I'm sorry to those who didn't get in. Just wanted to give some input to those who didn't get in the program they were hoping for. Keep your chins up an...

csab- I'm not sure what is going on with the books. I would check with the bookstore. Are you taking summer classes? Class doesn't start until June so you've got some time. I am sure you'll get an email from the instructors. If the books are changing...

What did u decide? Where did you apply? Ob and Peds is nothing like you've been told. There is a lot of information to be covered in a short amt of time and that is NOT The instructors faults. The OB instructor is excellent. Indy has really wonderfu...

Everyone keeps telling me to learn the metric system for the Teas (which I am COMPLETELY freaking out about). what types of metric conversion questions are on there? Just trying to figure out what to focus on. metric to metric? Miles to kilometers? c...

Don't sweat it. Last semester it was practice w/ a dry cloth. no water or anything. I was REALLY WORRIED and it didn't even end up being a big deal at all. No exposed parts of any kind. I was really relieved. and don't worry...people are going to be ...

so it's the end of week 2, how is everything going? how are you guys (and gals) doing? getting adjusted?

From my experience at Indy: Ironing: I despise ironing but I did iron my uniform just a bit. Tight, starched creases aren't necessary (at least I didnt do that) but wrinkles are not going to be acceptable. They want you to look professional. Indy Dre...

You'll be able to sign up for mentor. Your fundamentals instructor will bring it up, don't worry. =)

I understand. The mentors are there to help you if you need questions, just to give you guys SOMEONE who has been there/done that , to contact if you should have any questions about how to survive, study tips, how to organize, what to expect, or a n...

If this semester is anything like last semester....we had 2 online quizzes every week. 1 in fundamentals, and 1 in lab. fundamentals only lasts 5 weeks but lab is the whole semester. so plan on lab quizzes every week the entire semester. for us, the ...

P.S. --> Don't worry about orientation- it's fun!

What time if your orientation @ Lawrence? is it the all day one? Is it tomorrow? I need to go to up there to get some books and just want a heads up. I just finished my 1st semester at Lawrence. You can do it. It's scary but take it one day at a time...

During week 7 (I believe) Ivy tech RN/LPN's must take a dosage calculations test. Can anyone tell me what kind of math is on this test? I would like to get a general idea of what I should expect. The self study book starts with fractions and easy ma...

what is a typical schedule for the ASN program. I have NO Idea. anyone?

thanks for that info! I am SOOO Scared and nervous!

wondering if anyone is taking lifespan development online? Ivy tech.

I will PM you. Loved my class, loved my instructor!

Hello! I thought it would be nice to have a thread for those of us who will be starting the Fall 09 ASN & LPN Programs at the Indy campus. It looks like each campus has a different routine. I thought it might be handy to have a thread to guide/su...

I was wondering if there would be interest in starting an Ivy Tech thread for those not in any program yet, for those still working on Pre-reqs. I am taking anp102 in the fall in BLoomington, Tech writing online, plan on taking my Teas sometime soon...

WHen the class first started there were 60 ppl on the roster. Today there ae 55. I guess 5 dropped. Interesting. I wonder if they got their book and got overwelmed or what. ?

I always do loans and for some reason, they always charge me the darn $25 late fee!! I don't think that's right b/c I made arrangements, and it's not my fault that the loans come in late. I try to do the loans as soon as possible. They've done it to...

I'm quite interested in mental health as well. After I had my 1st child, she had low blood sugar and was put in the NICU ward. I realized then that I couldn't work in there. Rocking the babies, feeding them sure, but not the IV stuff (like you said) ...

I want to work in Labor/Delivery or Mother/Baby. What about you?

I know it!! I took Micro there and it had the same instructor/rules for the ANp classes: Allowed notes for tests, final was all old test questions (you are allowed to bring and use ALL old notes). You go to lab but have NO LAB TESTS!! Extra credit e...

I really REALLY want to take Spanish!! I don't know when I'll be able to fit that in though. maybe next summer. If not, then DEFINITELY after I graduate. I will be taking it at one point.
