OneFlyNurz MSN, RN

Due to affordability and school districts, I've narrowed it down to Coral Springs...it just feels right to me too. I'm excited to get outta winters in NY. Problem is, although I've persevered through these years with advancing degrees (completing MS...

Hi everyone, I haven't been very active on here for a while. I hope these are still helpful because the CPNE stuff changes every year. Good luck to everyone embarking on this journey. It was a tough one but hang in there, it will be so worth it in...

In an effort to satisfy my fellow students who would like my study docs, I have attempted to attach them here. If this doesn't work I'll try again. I got an enormous amt of responses from my last post and I'm so sorry if for taking forever to get to ...

Thanks Nurse_Kimurtle, I did apply to Memorial as well. Waiting to see who wants me :-)

Thanks @Sea2H0RN I wouldnt mind the drive at all. I do a lot of driving now as a hospice nurse. I also applied to some hospice supervisor and triage positions, let's see what kicks back.

@Sea2H0RN, I eventually want to teach nursing in college and when I look at faculty positions they all ask for acute care experience. @RUmedic the reason is kinda silly, but i'm Jamaican and Broward is home to a lot of my culture. One of my mentors e...

Hang in there E2Nurse, I hope they switch your classes for you so you can gain back some momentum and confidence. You can also request a new mentor if you have good reason ie, not getting help you feel you need or direction. Keep us posted :-)

That class will not open for me until July 1st so I dont know much about it. I've been poking around to see what each course entails so I'll have a jump start. I think that shouldnt have been one of your first classes. Biochem doesnt look so bad so d...

Hi, I just finished my first semester of WGU RN - BSN/MSN. What class are you having trouble with? Maybe I can help. I completed Care of Older Adult, Nutrition, Health Assessment and Statistics so far. Let me know and I'll try to help

Job market on LI right now is horrible, even if u know someone within who could refer u in. A little easier for a BSN but still very competitive because for 15 jobs there are 1500 applicants

The single most entertaining post ever, made my day! I would also like to know why the op is not only considering nursing but apn, wow!

No prob, I get on here every few days but if u want u can send pm's, i usually get them on my phone so response time would be quicker

Hi rhudo, follow the content guide and for a good idea of the actual exam try the practice exams :) you will see.

EC no longer allows entry into the program from completing 50% of clinical semesters from other school, one either has to be a lpn/emt or rt. The op did not specify she had no healthcare exp, so maybe she should chime in here. I do understand that pp...

As an EC grad, I must disagree with RNfinally about there being no clinical experience, what exactly was that CPNE then? Might not have been the traditional type of clinicals but EC isnt a traditional school! The time you take preparing for the CPNE,...

Finally, 2nd time, repeated a peds but passed all labs on Friday and smooth sailing into Sunday after that ped fail. I have stuff I concocted for studying, care plan tips, mnemonics, notes etc if anyone wants just leave ur email address here and i'll...

I hope u found them already, sorry for taking so long to answer. It's a Sticky thread, should be at the bottom of this page. Keep in mind they are from the 18th edition so u need to check the critical elements against ur 19th ed study guide n tweak t...

WOW and Cali BRN doesn't accept Excelsior's RN program? I'm outraged!

Thank you so much, I'm applying now :)

Graduated from Excelsior College in July and I want to get back on the horse asap but not sure if I should continue with ec for another 18 months or try to finish BSN thru WGU in 6 months. I live in NY and I'm not sure how well WGU would be accepted,...

Hi, when I became eligible for CPNE I got an email shortly after i started the pmnt plan saying that I was granted a faculty loan for the exact amt and that CPNE eligible students are first choice for it. When you become eligible for both, esp the C...

I'M BROKE!!!!!!!! Honestly, i'm more worried about how I'm gonna come up with another $2000 than I am about the disappointment of failing. FYI, I look at it now as a learning experience and it was fear and anxiety that did me in! However, back to the...

Hi, I didnt appeal, I just studied n practiced all over again n saved the money to pay for it and used the pmnt plan. I tested again in june this year and passed, graduated in july and passed boards on Monday this week :)

Here u go guys, play with it however u want but be sure to practice filling it out when ur practicing patient scenarios :) GRID Nov2011.doc
