I can attest to that! During fundamentals all we did the entire clinical rotation was pt. care. And boy did we deal with bodily fluids! When the pct's & lvn's saw us coming they gladly handed over all the lovely work to us nursing students. The f...

congrats dayana.jim87 ! take my advice as soon as you get your text books and reading list start reading. don't just read but make sure you understand what you read. falling behind on your reading is a death sentence. as for the med math do chaps 1-1...
[color=mediumblue]tough professors i can handle, i've had more than my share of them. but when one is rude, condescending and constantly belittles others is what i have a problem with. one can only ignore such a person for so long before said negativ...

Your sarcasm was duly noted Woodenpug. It was no doubt a typographical error but nevertheless I applaud you for you keen observation. Some schools will usher men into their nursing programs before women "UNOFFICIALLY". I am not here to argue so spare...

I got in wth a 3.346 GPA & a score of 114 on the NLN exam. They take everything into consideration GPA, pre req grades, interview etc... Their Rn/Pn program is very competitive. Of the people who took the NLN and applied this year 2011 only about...
It all depends on which school you are applying to. For instance SUNY Downstate Brooklyn NY requires 2 years exp in an ICU (surgical, medical or cardio thoracic) but would accept you if you have 1 year exp in on of the above mentioned ICU's pa...
I also attend Mec. If u haven't taken sceince courses in a while I would suggest taking Bio 151 (B- or better). If you check your work sheet you will see what you need prior to taking the nln (which includes Psych 101, Eng 112 & 150, Mth 120, Chm...
