  1. New grad needs help deciding which job to take L&D or Dialysis Clinic

    MorningLight replied to mommo5's topic in General Nursing

    I'm going to graduate soon too, and I totally understand your family dilemma. Time for family is huge to me, as I have young children... but I also eventually want to advance in my career and go to...

  2. Clayton State Acceptance Fall 2009

    MorningLight replied to MorningLight's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Just something that you can get wireless internet on. I would go with something basic. I got a really nice one, and it is dying on me for no good reason 2 yrs later. Also, the school can provide...

  3. Current GSU Students

    MorningLight replied to klea's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Hey, girl, I went through the EXACT same dilemma as you! I can't believe I forgot all about it. It happened to me in semester 1 as well. Don't worry, they ease up on you a whole lot more in the...

  4. Why are people encouraging me to become an M.D. rather than an RN?

    MorningLight replied to tnewman's topic in General Nursing

    My identical twin went to medical school, I went to nursing school. It's funny to see how our lives have been shaped by these decisions. There are pros and cons in both situations. You have to ask...

  5. Clayton State Acceptance Fall 2009

    MorningLight replied to MorningLight's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I think I talked about the interview early in this thread with a friend of mine who started the program with me (we ended up being friends!). I would make sure to express to them how much you value...

  6. Anyone thinking about Frontier in the near future??

    MorningLight replied to NAURN's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I graduate with my BSN in less than a year, but I definitely want to go to Frontier at some point in the future for midwifery. It is less expensive than Emory and was the first midwifery school in...

  7. Clayton State Acceptance Fall 2009

    MorningLight replied to MorningLight's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I think your stats are pretty solid. It sounds like a student here. Fall semester is always more competitive due to the time of year. If you don't get in right away, I would try again in the...

  8. Clayton State Acceptance Fall 2009

    MorningLight replied to MorningLight's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I wasn't going to reply but no one else is... my stats don't really draw a line though. overall: 3.92 pre-reqs: 4.0 NET: 92 my TEAS: 96 (but back then I took it for another school, CSU was using NET)...

  9. Patient Care Asst - what additional cert.'s should I obtain?

    MorningLight replied to Elizabeth 123's topic in Patient Care Technician, Assistants

    My ED offers certification in ortho, meaning you can put on the splints and such. It's about 3 months of training through the hospital. They always try to have one of those techs scheduled in the...

  10. Clayton State Acceptance Fall 2009

    MorningLight replied to MorningLight's topic in Georgia Nursing

    That can't be true. I interviewed and got my acceptance letter all before I took Patho. I took Patho the summer 2009 before starting in the Fall 2009. They said if you get accepted, they will give...

  11. Thoughts on ATI: Assessment Technologies Institute

    MorningLight replied to StudentNurseElle's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    OK, so I just took my ATI RN fundamentals test. I scored a 93.33, which is a level 3 proficiency. Almost everything I missed was from psychosocial integrity-those are the tricky ones! Questions...

  12. Thoughts on ATI: Assessment Technologies Institute

    MorningLight replied to StudentNurseElle's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I'm studying for my ATI RN fundamentals test tomorrow. (It counts as 5% of our grade). There seems to be some discrepancies between the ATI practice tests, the ATI fundamentals book, and what we've...

  13. Best pathophysiology book????

    MorningLight replied to Carla25's topic in General Students

    That first book mentioned by Huether is not a good one. Every body system has chapter on normal function and then a couple on altered function. The normal function chapters explained all of the same...

  14. Clayton State Acceptance Fall 2009

    MorningLight replied to MorningLight's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Thanks so much for all the help so far. I've already started w/ my dosage book. I just found out that I got into Interactive Comm for this summer, so I don't need it in the fall, yay! I'm also...

  15. Clayton State Acceptance Fall 2009

    MorningLight replied to MorningLight's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I have almost month off between finals here at UGA, and summer classes at Clayton State. Is there anything else besides the dosage calculations that I can study? I have a son who will be 2 in August....

  16. Clayton State Acceptance Fall 2009

    MorningLight replied to MorningLight's topic in Georgia Nursing

    wow, thanks! I will definitely do that. I did check out a dosage calculation book from the library called Henke's Med-Math, but I've been reading over pathophysiology stuff more because I have to...

    MorningLight replied to MorningLight's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Oh, cool, my mom lives in Alpharetta, near Milton High School. So is your baby about 2 weeks old?? I know that it must be difficult to go to class with a little one at home. I have a 19-month-old,...

  18. Clayton State Acceptance Fall 2009

    MorningLight replied to MorningLight's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Hey, me too, since I'm transferring! Are you going to orientation April 25th? I'm going to have to commute until mid-July, since my husband wants to spend most of his last free summer in Athens. He...

    MorningLight replied to MorningLight's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Hey! I just opened my acceptance letter! Will I be seeing anyone else there in the fall or this summer? I'm so

  20. Mispronouncing a word makes you less of a nurse

    MorningLight replied to Unique87's topic in General Nursing

    Hey, I just took a medical terms class, but I'm not in nursing school yet. As far as Latin and Greek go, you are saying it right! (eh mee'

  21. Clayton State Acceptance Fall 2009

    MorningLight replied to MorningLight's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Hey, Clayton State is totally my first choice! This is my second degree, so I like the price and also the accessibility of a smaller campus (I did my other degree at UGA). The interview was nothing...
