  1. "Just a Psych Nurse"

    I wish I could triple like this!
  2. Grand Canyon RN-BSN

    skid, I just started nursing research today, did you too? Could we be cohorts?
  3. Grand Canyon University RN to BSN Reviews

    Question about PowerPoint formatting: I got marked down points for the title page not being formatted correctly. The sample template for PowerPoint has exactly the same elements I put on mine (Title, GCU, my name). She never posted anything that it...
  4. Moving to CA: How Do I Apply for Endorsement?

    I have been getting ready to apply to CA BON for licensure by endorsement, and I would mention that the only livescan fingerprints they will accept must be performed in CA. There is a link to request a fingerprint card that you can take and get fill...

    We also had at least one person do the Cheryl Strayed movie "Wild" and another do the movie about Stephen Hawking, "The Theory of Everything". This class was my favorite so far.

    JDavis, also to note, I used "not shown in the movie" on several health patterns, but listed all the health patterns in my PowerPoint.
  7. Grand Canyon University RN to BSN Reviews

    I did The Mighty because I had never seen it. My character assessment was on Max Kane. Most people chose the other little boy who had obvious health issues, but I felt the psychosocial issues were more interesting that the physical ones (I am a psy...
  8. Grand Canyon RN-BSN

    Prism, I drank the kool aid, too! I talk with my coworker who I am going through the program with, and she laughs at me, but I really do see the value in the degree.
  9. rn to bsn

    My enrollment counselor @ GCU made my enrollment process SO easy. I decided I was going to enroll on Friday Dec. 19 and wanted to start the same day as a friend. He had me take pictures of my transcripts so they could do a credit evaluation, he walk...
  10. rn to bsn

    I am currently enrolled at Grand Canyon University, nearly half way done! The classes are 5 weeks each, with 2 discussion posts you answer and 6 posts that are responses to other students each week, one oby Wednesday and one by Friday. There is typ...
  11. Who's gone to Grand Canyon U RN - BSN?

    I have a small child and work full time. I find it very very manageable, and I would agree with tokmom's time estimate. The majority of that time is spent working on the weekly project, which I do in one big block of time. I typically don't do any...
  12. Grand Canyon RN-BSN

    I once busted the 20% mark, simply changed my title, and not a single thing else, and was below the magic number.
  13. Grand Canyon RN-BSN

    So glad I am not alone...Crunch time is when my creative juices get flowing! In the first class we talked about what habits we were going to change, and I vowed to avoid procrastinating Yup, that lasted until about half way into the second class.
  14. Grand Canyon University RN to BSN Reviews

    I am ending week 2 of leadership and management, and I am really struggling with this class. Abstract concepts and difficult for me anyway, but I also this class out of order, so I don't know if I missed some foundation information from research or ...
  15. Grand Canyon University RN to BSN Reviews

    About using term paper warehouse as a reference...I had an instructor use one of the similar websites (can't recall which) as a reference in her DQ participation posts!
  16. Grand Canyon University RN to BSN Reviews

    Numpties! Ha! I've never heard that, but I must find a way to incorporate that word into my life. I was just commiserating with a friend who is in the same class and the same CLC group as me. We have one person who has only ever checked into the f...
  17. Grand Canyon University RN to BSN Reviews

    So after talking to my SSA, I realized that my order of classes was out of the order they should be taken in. I am going through the course with a friend/coworker and after calling many times to ask them to make sure our classes were in synch and fo...
  18. Grand Canyon RN-BSN

    I was mistaken about 451v being elective, because my coworker I am going through program with doesn't need it. The AMP450 class can be subbed out for a getcollegecredit (website, ends in com) upper division test. My SA suggested the 'substance abuse...
  19. Grand Canyon RN-BSN

    Thank you! I will see if I can find any of those links from Flames. I typically just call my enrollment counselor, who is such a great customer service provider, I recommend him to everyone considering GCU. Thank you for the point in the right dire...
  20. Grand Canyon University RN to BSN Reviews

    Nursing leaderhip and management is next. Anyone taken this class? Can you recommend instructors? Intro to research is after that, and would love to know if you can recommend anyone for that class as well. I don't get on here too often, and will p...
  21. Grand Canyon RN-BSN

    I don't need statistics but I DO need 36 GCU credits. So, I'm supposed to start NRS451 Nursing Leadership and Management next. Has anyone taken this class? Are there alternates? I guess I can call my SSA tomorrow but I'm thinking about it now, a...
  22. Grand Canyon RN-BSN

    How do you see who teaches what classes? Have you all had any luck requesting specific instructors? AND, in case you all are curious, after a message to the instructor asking her to grade my paper, she gave me 48%. After a few more back and forth me...
  23. board certification

    What books did you use?
  24. board certification

    I want to get my board certification in psychiatric-MH nursing. For those of you that have done this, is it enough to just get the book offered by ANCC and study it. If you went to a workshop or did a test taking course, how helpful do you feel tha...
  25. board certification

    A coworker was going to go to a 2 day seminar this weekend. I'll post about whether he thought it was worth it when I find out later in the week. The book from ANCC is more than I want to pay, but I guess I'll have to budget for it.
