  1. New student here at Hondros

    animal1993 replied to Timustang04's topic in Ohio Nursing

    Those numbers actually make me feel ALOT better about the school, in general! I mean, it certainly would be better if we had awesome clinical experiences, etc., but we basically won't learn what it's...

  2. New student here at Hondros

    animal1993 replied to Timustang04's topic in Ohio Nursing

    Well, I won't be able to do much until Fri., but I intend to call the school to voice my concerns about some of these issues. As far as the price increase goes, I guess I won't worry too much about...

  3. New student here at Hondros

    animal1993 replied to Timustang04's topic in Ohio Nursing

    I was afraid of that. It just really makes me wonder why we weren't informed of this price increase during our financial aid meetings. (Mine was just last month!) I have thought about maybe...

  4. New student here at Hondros

    animal1993 replied to Timustang04's topic in Ohio Nursing

    Financial Aid emailed me, today, to let me know that I need to increase my Sally Mae loan by almost $1800 because they're having a price increase in Jan. Isn't the enrollment agreement a binding...

  5. Fear of Blood?

    animal1993 replied to Tim92's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I don't think you'll have too much trouble getting in there. Good luck to you,

  6. Cpr???

    animal1993 replied to emmie08's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Check with your local fire department. (Or any other one, if yours doesn't offer the healthcare provider class.) It usually doesn't take that long to get into a class, and it certainly doesn't cost...

  7. Fear of Blood?

    animal1993 replied to Tim92's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I'm starting at Hondros on Jan. 12th, at the West Chester campus. How about

  8. Fear of Blood?

    animal1993 replied to Tim92's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I am starting NS in Jan., and I, too, have a fear of blood. But, what I think I'm really afraid of is hurting someone, since my biggest fear is actually sticking someone for a blood draw. (I know...

  9. Need advice about getting my RN at a later date

    animal1993 posted a topic in LPN to RN

    Hello all! I am due to start the LPN program in Jan., and just found out that the school I have enrolled in may not be the best learning experience. I really don't want to have start over in the...

  10. Need advice about getting my RN at a later date

    animal1993 replied to animal1993's topic in LPN to RN

    Do you think it makes any difference to prospective employers what school you graduated from? My school is extremely new and few people have even heard of it. I've also heard that clinical sites...

  11. Bright personality required??

    animal1993 replied to cherryharlean's topic in General Nursing

    Being a "people person" doesn't mean you have to be perky all the time. You definitely need to be friendly, but you don't have to be everyone's friend. I think being able to anticipate someone's...

  12. New student here at Hondros

    animal1993 replied to Timustang04's topic in Ohio Nursing

    You are totally freaking me out! I am due to start at the West Chester campus for the LPN program in Jan. Is it really that bad? I don't even know what I should expect from the program, and I...

  13. They are trying to force the DTaP vaccine on me.

    animal1993 replied to Jo Dirt's topic in General Nursing

    I have to admit that I hate needles. I break out into a cold sweat at the very thought of needing a shot. (Something I'll have to get over if I want to be a nurse, I know!) However, you better...

  14. I Had to Stand Back Due to My Shock and Just Stare

    animal1993 replied to BSN_after_40's topic in General Nursing

    I totally and completely understand. I have also been subjected to this eye-opening experience, though not in the same setting! I was working retail when I was about 21, and got the scare of my...

  15. New student here at Hondros

    animal1993 replied to Timustang04's topic in Ohio Nursing

    I've got my husband checking on some for me. (I am totally clueless about which laptop I need.) I was told during my financial aid appointment that the only real requirement for our laptops is that...

  16. HESI Entrance Exam

    animal1993 replied to soul2quz's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I thought that study guide was actually pretty helpful, as I've been out of school for quite some time! I only had to take Reading, Math, Vocab and Grammar, so I don't know how difficult the other...

  17. New student here at Hondros

    animal1993 replied to Timustang04's topic in Ohio Nursing

    I applied for government loans for the winter term. I had my appointment with financial aid and she went over everything I was approved for, and what I needed to pay out of pocket, but I haven't...

  18. New student here at Hondros

    animal1993 replied to Timustang04's topic in Ohio Nursing

    I'm so excited to have found this thread! I've been trying to find some fellow classmates! I start Hondros (the West Chester campus) in Jan. for the LPN program. I have absolutely no idea what I'm...

  19. Which stethoscope is best for nursing school?

    animal1993 replied to WannaBeNrse's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Are you by any chance starting at Hondros (West Chester) on Jan. 12th? I am starting the LPN program there and have been looking for any fellow

  20. Background Check

    animal1993 replied to marie.clay2's topic in Ohio Nursing

    I'm not sure where you would get your background check in your area. I paid $85 for mine, in Cincinnati. As for your CPR class, check with your local fire department, and make sure you tell them...

  21. Whiny Classmate Rant

    animal1993 replied to hiddencatRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    While I don't necessarily disagree with the points that llg made, I do have to say that for someone who has learned not to make assumptions about how good a student will be, based on their age, it...

  22. Whiny Classmate Rant

    animal1993 replied to hiddencatRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I haven't actually started NS yet (I start in Jan.), but I went to beauty school a few years back, and I can only imagine what you're going through. I would also be willing to bet that they're fresh...
