Hi all! I am starting the nursing program at Coppin:nurse: in the fall and wanted to know if there are any other students out there starting in the fall or are in the program as we speak. Those who are starting in the fall congrats:yeah:. Those who a...

I think the program is great, but not perfect. They do have a rigorous program where as the main to do is study and keep up. I am starting the spring sophomore classes which for me is 4 nursing classes and microbiology. Microbiology is thankfully my ...

I still have my letter from last year inviting me to take the NET. It states if your GPA is 3.5 or higher, you are automatically accepted no matter your score. However, everyone is required to take the NET no matter if you had a GPA of 3.5 or not. I ...

Hello, I am a sophomore in the nursing program and it will depend on what classes you have completed to determine whether it is a 3 or 4 year program but the least is 3. If you come in with a 3.5 or higher average, the net score wont affect your acce...

I agree, the semester did go by quickly. I got a 3.0 average for my first semester but through hard work, blood, sweat and tears. Only because I was in the middle of a break up and moving. This semester I am settled in and plan to work twice as hard....

Thank you for this post. I am taking clinical computaion this spring and will use your post as part of my study materials.:)

I thought that the instructors in my nursing classes only scratched the surface on topics. At least I am not alone and I do find it necessary to go home and study or I would probably fail.

If you could get into Towson in the Spring, go for it. I like the program so far as I am a sophomore, but the one big thing I don't like is that if you fail a Fall class, you are not able to take it again till next Fall. Same with a Spring class, you...

Well, I got through my first week. I am trying to juggle the studying as well. It will be a journey this year but we will definitely make it through. Let's just continue to be there for one another. Good luck everyone!

No, they are different. After you take it the first time, look at your score and try to study in between before taking it again. At the bottom of this page is good information http://hfcclab.info/net_handouts.htm Also check out the beginning http://h...

Have you tried buying the NET practice online practice test and the book from eriworld. The online test is helpful and mimmicks the actual test. You can take the test over and over for up to 30 days and it gives you your score just like the real test...

Me too! SO EXCITED! YEAY! :roll

This is a very good thread. I start my first clinical in the fall and I am excited and nervous. I work in a hospital so I hear of mistakes like needle sticks etc. I hope already being exposed to the healthcare environment will give me a heads up. Goo...

I think people who become nurses first for the money should reevaluate their career choice. Patients need someone to put their care first not someone who is looking forward to payday:coollook:. Also if you are not choosing a career becuse it is what...

Thanks! I know it will be way more than what we are expecting but I am determined to get through nursing school no matter how intense. My main thing is those one or two hour breaks between classes, I will use to start to review, study and begin outli...

Thanks! I know it will be hard, but I can either pass or fail and for me failing is not an option.

Fall is my first semester as a nursing student. I have to take chemistry in the fall with two nursing classes and Micro in the spring with four nursing classes. I am excited and scared as well. I know I will get through as long as I am focus and you ...

Both are free. http://www.dmu.edu/medterms/ http://free-ed.net/free-ed/HealthCare/MedTerm-v02.asp

I am better at studying on my own but I will probrably pay attention to those that are serious about passing class and may meet up with them. I do agree with jenawade25 about the study groups but I guess it depends on who you are studying with. I hav...

CONGRATULATIONS:yeah: and good luck! Thank you for the great advice and I do appreciate it. I will be purchasing the book over the summer. Do you have one that you prefer? Also 211, are you just practicing at the school's lab or do ou actually have r...

WOW! Didn't know the nursing world could be so cruel. Doesn't change my mind about being a nurse but it just gives me a broader picture of what to expect.

Bravo to you and all the great nurses in this world.

Thanks! I am excited as well as nervous. The Nurs 211 Intro to the nursing process 1, how is that class? The only reason I thought the first year was hard is because of the spring semester having 4 nursing classes and MICRO:uhoh3:. I am also reading ...
