I'm by no means ready to apply, even though I finished the RN-BSN program in May of this year. I just have a few questions regarding the MSN in Nursing Education at UTA. How does preceptorship work? Is the courseload similar to the RN-BSN program? Th...

I had a good experience. Some of the gen ed's were a pain, mainly History. It wasn't a difficult class but it was poorly organized. I enjoyed how short the courses were, particularly the nursing courses. By the time I got sick of a class, it was over...
I'm just curious. I live and work in a pretty rural area and my daily mileage varies from 35 (a really good day) to 150 (not such a good day). Thankfully, my agency compensates at the federal rate for mileage. I feel bad for my poor new-ish car. lol

I love home health. I love the autonomy, flexibility, the relationships I develop with my patients, how much I have learned about wound care, being able to provide quality education on disease processes and medications. I am a loner by nature so bein...

I have two young kids and my home health work schedule is similar to what you have described. I love the flexibility. I can stop at the school between patients and bring my kids lunch, do parent teacher conferences, pick up a sick kid from school and...

I am so burned out, I am behind on reading again. lol We are so close, though! British Lit did have a couple of timed essays. However, the essays were easy and the time was very generous. British Lit was a bit more time consuming than I thought it w...

She did finally grade the paper. So annoying. British Lit was easy. Just some discussion boards and some essay style stuff. I took research when it was group work and it suckkkked. So time consuming. I know that it is individual now, but I have hear...

I am being such a slacker! I'm behind on reading and still need to do stuff for Capstone. I am just so burned out. To top it off my coach hasn't graded my paper for the 2nd reaction that I turned in on freaking Friday. What the heck!?

I'm not sure as I took stats before it was proctored (thank goodness). You will have to take college algebra before stats, though. Just an FYI. You may want to look at a community college to complete stats.

English 1302 was easy, in my opinion. If you can BS your way through an essay, you will be fine. I think taking it with Art 1301 would be fine, Art 1301 was a breeze.

I'm really going to have to pull this paper out of thin air. I spent all last week doing the readings and reflections so I have all week to write it, but capstone started last week so I will be dealing with that as well (which actually, the class see...

Holy cow there is a lot of reading this week. Something like 90 pages in the textbook and then that Seven Years' War book (the whole thing! Like 170 pages!). Is it just me or should he have told us two weeks ago that he wanted us to read the whole st...

Did you take the test yet? I did. The study guide questions were completely worthless and I felt like I didn't know anything. I did okay, but not as well as I usually do.
RunHeatherRun replied to #proudtobeanurse's topic in Texas (UTA)
I already completed the equivalent of History 1312 prior to applying for the RN program way back when, thank goodness. I actually start Capstone next Monday, so I am nearly finished. I am so ready!
