I am in an ADN program in the US and am interested in emigrating to NZ in the near future. I have visited all the related sites in the 'sticky' post but many of my questions were left unanswered. Such as, are US ADN-graduate RN's recognized as an R...

Clinicals two days a week, first day 1:00-2:30 and the second day 6:45-3:00.

I live in Louisville so I'll be there. Our instructors are making the convention "mandatory" since it is so close and full of so many resources for us students. The Galt House is a lovely hotel kinda steep on the rates though so you may want to boo...

If I had a choice I would take it during the summer just to get it over with. Meeting 4 nights a week, I seriously doubt you will have to read several chapters a night because 6 weeks is enough t2o spread it out a bit. I'm taking an 8-week developm...

My school looked at two things: a) GPA in only those classes listed as pre-reqs for the nursing program and b)the score on either the NLN or ACT. We had several EMT's and even more LPN's in the applicant pool that were not accepted due to their low ...

Adscope 603, I can hear bruits better overall than w/ my Littman Master Classic II. It is also half the price.

Most BSN programs require a statistics course and most ADN programs do not. I am trying to take it online this summer if I can get registered in the course before it fills. I hate math with a sweet, sweet passion and I have heard mixed reviews on t...

I went to UofL for three years so I cannot speak of Bellarmine's program. But there are two people in my nursing class who were accepted into Bellarmine's program and ended up enrolling at a state school due to the high cost of enrollment. I'm in t...

AP terminolgy will come into play a lot as far as describing the anatomical location of something so know all the inferior, superior, infra, supra - type of things. Just look into the really basic word roots and prefixes like hemo, pneumo, itis, oto...

All of the supplies that you need will be designated by your particular program since each one is a little different than the next. We had to have a 75/90 hour CNA course under our belt before we could apply for admission into the nursing core cours...

Well said! I have to support UofL, I used to go to school there.

It will be one of the more challenging experiences that you will ever have, and yet the most rewarding at the end of the day when you realize that you have conquered something that many of your peers are having a great deal of trouble with. I studi...

Shop around, I'm now using a $40 Adscope that I can hear better out of than any Littman I have tried. It all depends on the specifics of your own hearing.

A=100-90 B=89-83 C=82-78 Below 78.000 is a failing grade.

Pseudostatified columnar = ciliated usually w/ goblet cells present Transitional epithelium = May have a slight oval shape depending on slide Cuboidal epithelium = duh...looks like a cube, has round nuclei Stratified squamous epithelium = found in ep...

Chem involves a lot less math than physics, but there are still a lot of calculations you will have to be able to do esp. in lab. It is virtually all algebra and the "hardest" thing that I can recall doing were log functions during the second semest...

LOL! I'll take this relatively MILD winter weather anyday over the 98 degree nearly 100% humidity crap that plagues this state during the summer for weeks on end. I'm definately moving north after I graduate.

We blasted through the endrocrine system and genetic in lecture the first two and a half weeks of class. Now we're going over the reproductive system in lecture and finishing up the endocrine system in lab.

It is up to the board of nursing in your particular state as to their granting you liscensure. Each state has different policies as far as felony/misdemeanors and sitting for boards. Good luck.

I like Taber's Medical Dictionary and it is what I tote along for class. Epocrates is a handy little drug reference that is free on the web for download for Palm operating systems. It is not the most robust but you can't argue with free.

Here is some very good advice for finding the best way to reduce foot pain via footwear. Find your local running store that caters to the running/jogging community - NOT a sporting goods store or a megastore that sells running shoes, you need an actu...

We are already into the endocrine system in lecture and lab....good times.
