Where did you order the pin from? I'd like to get one.

I agree. It was fairly easy!! Weekly journal entries that you turn into a journey paper, your capstone PowerPoint and all the steps that lead up to that, resume, and easy discussion posts. I really didn't put much effort in and finished with a 98%. It hasn't really sink in yet that I'm all done!!

Just got my final grade! So excited to be officially done! It's time to celebrate. Congratulations everyone!

I need to check out certification. I thought they required 2 years of critical care experience before sitting for the exam. Congrats!

Congrats ScarletFire! I still need to do 2 discussion posts. I am the only one who has posted in my group for next week. It's a pretty dumb post if you ask me - but whatever! I've been relaxing today! Cleaned up my work area at home and did laundry. No real housework until next week. Next week I start a job at our community college as a medication nurse for the 2nd-year nursing students. The pay is good, and it should be fun! A nice diversion from the ICU!

I just submitted my nursing journey paper - the last assignment I had to do! All I need to do is make a few discussion posts next week, and I am done!! I can't believe we are finished with our BSNs! Writing my nursing journey paper was a great way to reflect on everything I have learned over the past 11 months. Going away with hubby for a few days, and then next week, cleaning this house from top-to-bottom, lol. It has been pretty neglected over the past year!

Thanks for posting ScarletFire. I was beginning to think it was just me. Still nothing this morning. If I get a break today, I will see if I can check it from work. Good luck everyone!

I was excited to see the course open in Blackboard, then irritated that I can't open the attestation form or syllabus. I was hoping to get a few things done today since I have to work tomorrow. Hopefully, they will get it opened up soon! I'm so ready to be done with school!!

I have heard it isn't too bad. I understand the work builds on the previous weeks (like other classes) and works towards the final project. Everyone states it is pretty easy, but I imagine it must be time consuming, since it is a 5 credit class. Good luck!

I only had to take American Gov't and Texas Gov't. I have a BS degree in Business Management, so luckily I already had taken most of the non-nursing courses. I did double up nursing courses a couple of times, and I really don't recommend it. It fried my brain!

Just finished up Leadership and Management as well as Co-op. I can't believe this long journey is almost over. I started in October 2013 - so 11 months to the finish line isn't too bad! Good luck to everyone next semester!

I was wondering about that too. Looking on-line, the official end date was Friday. I guess they felt they were doing us a favor by giving us an extra day! I'm going to enjoy my weekend off. I start Leadership and Coop in a week, and then Capstone! I applied for graduation today. I am so ready to be done!

I just spent over 30 minutes completing my course survey. I wrote many paragraphs describing my issues with the course. I am also forwarding this to my advisor and higher ups at UTA. They really should be ashamed. It looks like I'm going to finish with a 'B', but it is not my grade I am unhappy with, it's the general BS of this course.

Assessment was a lot of writing. Just make sure you follow the directions for the written assignments and you will be fine. This class was like kindergarten compared to research. I just finished up vulnerable populations and I didn't think it was too bad either.

It's not just the group work. It's the quizzes, the poor organization, the OOH that are a disaster, etc. It look like I'm gonna squeak out a B, but I've put in enough work to earn an A+++
