Hey guys. I’m an NP 3 student at the Plant City campus & wanted to give you a heads up about a couple things. The book package is expensive but try to get access to the books. I only say this because this semester (when doing careplans) we wer...

Wow, I feel like I have just read a page out of my own life. I am in my third semester of nursing school (RN) and everything seemed perfect until 1/19/11. My mom had noticed some swelling in her legs and as the nurse I told her she needed to see th...

Tebyrd, That's the correct book. I would suggest the Saunders NCLEX Review guide.

Tented I had Mrs Crews too & she was a great help. Don't be afraid to ask her questions because she's more than willing to help.

Everyone, Relax!!!! I remember beinb in your shoes right before last semester but looking back I was overeacting on some things. If you have a good basic knowledge on math you will do fine on the calculations. As far as the other grain to mg it is...

Persgirl, I am not sure what books are listed as supplemental & required for you, however, for us there were some books listed as supplemental that we had to have. Wee needed the Nursing Diagnosis Book and Davis Drug Guide even though they are l...

I don't recall if they were work ones are not, sorry.

Wow you guys are on top of things. As for the bandage scissors several people bought them @ the bookstore and weren't happy with them. You can get the badge holder in the bookstore also. Instructors don't tell you a whole lot of what you will nee...

Hey Guys! I hope you are enjoying summer vacation. I wish you guys all the luck for next semester. One tip I have is to purchase Fluids & Electrolytes made easy because this was a tough subject for the whole class. As for shoes, I bought the ...

Not at all. I was at South Florida Baptist. I don't know about Lakeland Regional though.

Tebyrd - You should be fine. I live in Lutz & class was @ 1 so I always left @ 12 and was usually there by 12:30. PC campus is right off I-4 anyways so that makes it easier.

We were told that we would need to know our meds w/out looking at drug cards. Also, we needed to know the main beta blockers, anti-deppressants, anti-hypertensives, anti-psychotics, and insulins b/c everyone is on them. I feel pretty good about lab...

New Goal RN We were already warned that we better know our drugs so I am working on that right now. Also, I am really working on fluids and electrolytes b/c I didn't do so great on that test. How about you?

Tebryd I did the day program but I would say to give yourself an hour to get to PC if you are leaving Moffitt at 5:00. I'm a worry wart too so ask all the questions you want.

i loved the plant city campus. originally i wanted the dm campus but now i'm glad i got pc. you have the option of south florida baptist & lakeland regional for clinicals. all of our tests fell on a tuesday, so i honestly, i only spent the we...

Tebyrd0020 - I just wanted to let you know that being in nursing school, having a family, and working full time is completely possible. I just finished my first semester at Plant City with a B and was in the same boat as you. It was hard but well w...

Clinical sites are Lakeland Regional and South Florida Baptist. I am at South Florida Baptist. It's a smaller hospital but it was great place to get your feet wet. You will have Clinicals one of two days at either hospital. If it is like this sem...

Squeen13 - Try and stay positive. I was an alternate for the Spring 2010 and was notified 3 wks before class began. You never know what is going to happen so stay positive.

Congratulations to those of you who made it into the program. I am finishing up my first semester at the Plant City campus. Good luck to all of you. It has been a hard semester but it has all been worth it. Enjoy your summer because one you begin...

Yes, I was an alternate and just found out Monday

I just got an acceptance letter today for Plant City. I was wondering in anyone could tell me what the approximate cost of the 1st semester would be?

Finally, I found a thread for Spring admission. I got an acceptance letter for the LPN program. I am so excited I can't wait for class to start!!!

Has anyone who was chosen for an alternate been notified that they have a spot?

I got an alternate letter today also, do you mind telling me what your gpa is? I'm curious to see if I have a shot.

I got a letter for an alternate position. Question, what was everyone's GPA? I'm curious to see where I stand. Congrats to everyone who got in and hopefully you will get your campus choice.
