  1. What's a good reason to quit nursing school?

    morningland replied to none the wiser's topic in General Students

    I would say keep going. The reason is that most nursing schools have a 50-60% fail rate which means many people won't even make it through the program. If you keep going and fail; then you can just...

  3. No She/he Did Not!!!

    morningland replied to Maggie in NC's topic in General Students

    No... I don't act with that same bravado while I am wearing my students uniform because I admit that I don't know sh-t. Now you are passing judgment on me; so it goes both ways. Also, just because...

  5. Loans disbursed after classes start!?

    morningland replied to gatordez's topic in General Students

    It's normal for loans to be dispersed almost a month after classes start. At my school, your tuition is paid when your loans are dispersed so you don't have to worry about it. However, they do tell...

  6. well, I can say I am officially discouraged...

    morningland replied to Rachelmm007's topic in General Students

    I agree with everyone else here; this is just one nursing manager speaking so you shouldn't let it take such a huge effect on you. She is just saying it to shock a little reality into the people who...

  7. Can't wait until it's my turn to be an RN

    morningland replied to thenameismac's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I know how you feel. I started my first pre-reqs in 2007 and I will be graduating with my ADN this may then I take NCLEX in June. It's very surreal to be this close after all you go through in the...

  11. Help. Is my outrage justified?

    morningland replied to fairandbalanced's topic in General Students

    I don't agree with this. Granted I do agree that nursing school has a lot of BS you need to deal with that doesn't make sense but if school didn't prepare you for what you needed to know to be a...

  12. Help. Is my outrage justified?

    morningland replied to fairandbalanced's topic in General Students

    I agree and I just wanted to point out that I don't agree with the whole notion of "well, you wouldn't want a nurse who JUST passed through nursing school".... I don't think it makes any difference...

  13. Help. Is my outrage justified?

    morningland replied to fairandbalanced's topic in General Students

    It sucks your friend failed but it wasn't because of that one question. Even though it is a vague question the argument can be made that she did miss an very valid and important nursing question at...

    morningland replied to woahmelly's topic in General Students

  15. Good time to be finished with nursing school

    morningland replied to AddisonLawrence03's topic in General Students

    I think it's all in how you spent your 20's... I'll be 28 when I get my license in may 2011 but I can look back and really appreciate how I spent my very young years. I traveled, moved all across the...

  17. finally...... a break!!! or is it??

    morningland replied to reeta116's topic in General Students

    You NEED to rest. I would not start going over material until 3-4 days before class begins. If you don't give yourself time to rest you are going to burn out through the next

  18. OCC accelerated program is a go!

    morningland replied to fetachz's topic in Michigan Nursing

    And don't forget to mention how dirt cheap our program is. My full tuition was only 7k for top notch education. Sure it is only an ADN but I can transfer over to OU and complete my BSN in only a...

  21. I start nursing school tomorrow and I'm having second thoughts...help!

    morningland replied to Rachelmm007's topic in General Students

    There is no point worrying about it. Nursing hiring freezes come and go... just ask any experienced nurse. I would just focusing on getting through the nursing

  22. Question about travel nursing

    morningland posted a topic in Travel

    Is it true that, as a travel nurse, once you complete an assignment you can take a break from accepting another assignment? So if I complete a six month contract with a hospital can I take a month or...

  23. Is it worth it for me to become a CNA before nursing school?

    morningland replied to Copperismydog's topic in General Students

    It helps and I would totally do it if you are waiting to get into a program but I would not work as a CNA first before starting nursing school because it will only help so
