  1. In our program you have to have an 80% average for your tests before they'll even add in your scores for projects and so on. So if you have a 79% on your tests and your grades you're going to fail...
  2. Pre-nursing school course confusion. Help?

    Oh and I know that my TEAS test was heavy on the chem. My chem class was 5+ years ago and there was a lot of it that I didn't remember so if your school requires a certain score on the TEAS to get...
  3. Pre-nursing school course confusion. Help?

    dgantt - Look up the Anatomy & Phys class in your college's course descriptions. I'd say 99% of all A&P classes at any college will require some kind of Chemistry as a pre-req. That's why...
  4. No She/he Did Not!!!

    I think my instructor would have had a total stroke...after she kicked the girl's rear end straight out of the hospital.
  5. No She/he Did Not!!!

    ...tell the instructor during class that she was concerned about getting AIDS from a patent spitting at her. My study budy almost fell out of her chair I think. The look on her face was so...
  6. Wound Dressing Changes

    It is my understanding that this should be addressed in the order. As in "wet to dry dressing change q4h or prn" etc etc. I don't think there is a standard as it depends on the pt's individual...
  7. Pre-nursing school course confusion. Help?

    Some colleges do require that you be enrolled to speak w/ an advisor for the program, but others do not but all colleges will have someone in admissions that you can talk to and might be able to help...
  8. What if I get a "C" in Patho?

  9. How much is too much for student loans?

    I'm going to have a horribly embarrassing amount of debt when I graduate. BUT using the calculators you can find online (a pp posted one for you) I know that even with a big SL bill each month, I...

  11. Mercy College Toledo acceptance policy?!

    Lcube - I've heard that not only from people at the school, but nurses on the floors of the hospitals we are doing our clinicals at. The ADN program only requires an ethics class that is taught "from...

  13. Math Problem Help

    tlc - I have to admit that the only time I picked up the book was to go through the DA part. :imbar: Math is a subject that comes fairly easy to me so once I figure out how to set the problems up I...
  14. stupid mom

    "I was looking to read where she endangeered her baby" In my book bringing baby home to someone that likes to beat things smaller and weaker than itself constitutes endangerment. Of course nobody...
  15. water spills

    Is this a trick
  16. Nursing school.... is just a bunch of BUSY WORK?

    Well I have to say i'd rather spend my clinical day getting to touch actual patients then look at paintings. If I really cared about looking at paintings, I could go to the museum on my day off. I'd...
  17. 36 hours is only part time??

    I can't answer for nursing jobs, but I know outside of healthcare most HR people i've worked with see 36 hours as part time positions and 37+ full time. Maybe the 12 hours shifts make a difference?...
  18. Mercy College Toledo acceptance policy?!

    I think I actually might have replied to one of you in another forum, but I applied late (May) w/ a 3.3 or 3.4 something and was on the wait list for the evening program but was told if I wouldn't...
  19. Math Problem Help

    Ignore PP, OP they're apparently perfect and know everything. I'm going to second the Demensional Analysis approach. We were told to go w/ whatever method we wanted as long as we got the correct...
  20. Mercy College of NW Ohio?

    I did a search of old threads but didn't find a whole lot of info on this school, so I was wondering if there is anyone who has attended or is currently attending that could give me the highs and...
  21. Mercy College of NW Ohio?

    Are you looking at the BSN or ADN program? I'm in the ADN program (nights) and I think I had a 3.5 or something like that and got in (I can't remember exactly what classes they took from my previous...
  22. What color are your school uniforms?

    Well the jails around here use BRIGHT orange scrubs for the inmates so here we very well COULD be mistaken for something other than nursing students
  23. What color are your school uniforms?

    I hate you all. We have to wear white on white on white. White leather shoes (no color) white pants, white top, white lab jacket and of course white undies because you can see through the ugly things....
  24. To All SINGLE Mothers....

    I'm currently at Mercy of NWO in Toledo. Have you checked out the Ohio boards here on Allnurses? I see a lot of Columbus area schools mentioned quite a bit on
