Pre-req math classes for nursing school
It depends on what college you go to. I had to take intro to algebra and survey of math for my associates, I'm working on some classes toward my BSN so I have taken intermediate algebra and going to take college algebra. Every semester we had to take a dose calculation test and have a 90 or better or we couldn't continue! Hope this helps study hard and with God all things are possible!

Feels like a slap in the face...
I feel some times in life I have rose colored glasses on, In my dream world I graduate, Pass the boards and start work. Well I passed my boards and I'm still looking for a job. I called and scored an interview, the person in charge of interviews called the day before and canceled stating the hospital was full and asked me to call back Monday. Well I've called Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday and now I feel I'm just being pushed off and rejected. I live in a very small area and would have to travel an hour to get another job. I've applied at hospitals farther away and get the same rejection e-mail. I'm loosing steam. I've prayed about it and what is meant to be will be!

Nclex is making me crazy
I was a nervous wreck up until the night before the test. My husband took me out on a nice date we came home and I decided not to study any more. The next morning we woke up and headed for the testing site 2 hours away. We got there a few hours before the test was scheduled I was so calm that it scared me how calm my nerves were. (I always woke up at the crack of dawn the morning of test went to starbucks and looked over my notes one more time!) I went and did the test had 75 question when I walked out I was scared because I thought it was hard. I did the pvt and got the good pop up. This Tuesday my name was on the bon! I did a lot of questions (ncsbn, kaplan, and a few nclex books and drug cards!)

does your school use "the neighborhood" by pearson education
yeah and that would save a bunch of money, we have 45 people in the rn program this year who all had to pay at least 75 dollars for it add it up thats over 3000 dollars for simple case study, which school do you go to nc29mom?

does your school use "the neighborhood" by pearson education
we have to use it also and I thought the cost was ridiculous for nothing but access to a web site. with all the other books we had to buy our teacher said she helped come up with the idea so I'm hoping we use it, I hate to waste money on things we don't use!

The First Days of Nursing School by the Fall 2009ers!!!
today was our first day in lab and that was so fun, I love that part of it, the first day of school so much was going on I was like all of this on the first day wow, as the next 2 days passed it seemed like as long as you looked threw your calendar and read before class it was not bad, still a lot of note taking and reading but I really really loved lab, we did bed changes occupied and not, shaving, bathing, oral care, nail care, massages, infant bathing and stuff like that!
