  1. San Jacinto College ADN Fall 2009

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    You should see calendar 2. *********, who is my instructor for this class, is only there for the first and second exam. Kind of...odd. I do like the exam blueprint though. Breaks down how many...

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    Thanks Zippidy. Well, those students were correct about Assessment. Read 1-4 because guess what we're doing on the second Monday? :

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    Anyone else unable to get into the San Jac website? It keeps taking me to the stupid bond measure thing.

  4. San Jacinto College ADN Fall 2009

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    I would read both Fundamentals and Health Assessment Ch's 1-4. It definitely wouldn't hurt. As Melissa already said, it was a friendly suggestion given to us by one of the students. One that we were...

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    Wow, that is ridiculous. Though at least now we know that they won't charge that fee again. I think I'll be registered tomorrow. I think :

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    An FYI, the assessment blackboard class is up. So far there doesn't appear to be anything in there like in the foundations/fundamentals

  7. San Jacinto College ADN Fall 2009

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    I remember--vaguely--them saying like Melissa said, that lab would run from those different hours depending on when your fundamentals class was. I agree that it does suck when they won't tell us what...

  8. San Jacinto College ADN Fall 2009

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    Wow, now I feel terrible. I went into crazy Russell mode there. Sorry about that. I'll be a better nurse teammate I promise! Yeah, I'll probably sit down tomorrow and start writing up some more notes....

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    Yeah, intermediate skills is 2nd 8

  10. San Jacinto College ADN Fall 2009

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    Yeah. It's kind of easy to get wide-eyed and going oh no, I'm going to fail everything and never be a nurse! But they've all told me that it's not hard if you just stay focused. And really, who isn't...

  11. San Jacinto College ADN Fall 2009

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    Yeah, sorry about that x_x I completely blanked and I'm always calling it pharm so. Geeze, people probably think I'm so headhunter who wants everyone to fail or something. I guess I'll say this. I...

  12. San Jacinto College ADN Fall 2009

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    Ack, I wasn't meaning to you, I meant to the class. I just forgot that your name had pharm in it. Consider me disciplined. I realize that as well, but I think they're really underestimating how smart...

  13. San Jacinto College ADN Fall 2009

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    You make it sound like I'm going to jail ;_; Hospitals want experience. There are tons of new nurses out there, but they can't get jobs at hospitals because they want experience. I think they do that...

  14. San Jacinto College ADN Fall 2009

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    Yeah, but see they haven't told us to memorize anything yet Melissa : D Gotta be in class before they can tell us the whats of the wheres. It's all gravy to say memorize the book, but they're not...

  15. San Jacinto College ADN Fall 2009

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    Well it depends on how quickly you learn too : p But you really have to immerse yourself in the terminology to make it work. If you don't, then a lot (and I mean a lot) of things they teach are going...

  16. San Jacinto College ADN Fall 2009

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    I'd think that would be pretty easy. As much has been ballyhooed about these classes, there's really nothing overly complicated. For those who've never done medical work, obviously doing the skills...

  17. San Jacinto College ADN Fall 2009

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    Haha, no. Not surprising in the least bit, especially when you see how many posts I have and when I joined :

  18. San Jacinto College ADN Fall 2009

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    Yeah. Apparently we rank pretty low on the list of need to know students. Anyway, wayward e-mails forgotten, is anybody reading past the 4 chapters for fundamentals/foundations and assessment? I...

  19. San Jacinto College ADN Fall 2009

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    I just don't like getting an e-mail saying alright we got your clinicals in!!!! And then find out that it doesn't even concern me. Could have at least put the course numbers in to assuage those of us...

  20. San Jacinto College ADN Fall 2009

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    I'd believe there are people who haven't started reading, and they'd do okay. Our first week is mainly a throwaway week due to orientations so there's plenty of time to read. Also, clinicals have been...

  21. San Jacinto College ADN Fall 2009

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    Haha, it's all good. Study what works for you. I think I'm gonna' relax and enjoy my last week of freedom. Besides, I already read the first four chapters of the foundations/fundamentals and the...

  22. San Jacinto College ADN Fall 2009

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    Yeah, I don't know about the workbook thing. I was trying to figure that out the other day. Geeze Melissa, you'll have finished the classes before you even step inside the classroom :

  23. San Jacinto College ADN Fall 2009

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    Supposedly. The only proof we have of the assessment test is all hearsay. I'll believe it when I see the schedule for that

  24. San Jacinto College ADN Fall 2009

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    I don't think this is going to be nearly as bad as everybody's making it out to be. Not to continuously make comparisons to the other programs I've been in, but this is typical of the first couple of...

  25. San Jacinto College ADN Fall 2009

    Fly_Dayton replied to AriaRN's topic in Texas Nursing

    Uh, whatever the class is on Monday. I think it's assessment, but I keep getting them confused. So if assessment is the class on Monday, then yeah, it'll be that book. Feel free to correct me if I'm...
