I bought the NCSBN 3 week program and so far all of my scores have been around 65. I am scheduled to take the exam July 1st, but I am wondering if I should reschedule. From the Saunders books, most of my scores are high 80's to 90's. Can anyone com...

I actually was not told the requirements to get in, so this was interesting to read. I am finishing Capstone and co-op next week. I am so excited to be almost done! So far I have a 4.0. Fingers crossed that stays the same next week! Bridget

Hi, online students are definitely eligible for Sigma Theta Tau. I was invited to join and registered yesterday. We are also invited to attend the induction ceremony, but since I am in California I won't make it. This has been a lot of work, but I al...

Welcome to the forum! Just some advice, if you need to take technical writing take it with prof nursing a/b. Those classes are required to take any of the other nursing classes. They are very do able to take together. I am also from CA and was dreadi...

They accepted everything that I was expecting. I had to take a few classes, but no surprises. The general Ed courses are eight weeks and can get somewhat tedious. For Texas government we had tests every week plus discussions. It seemed like a lot of ...

I am also in the research class now. We have six in our group but only five responded so I guess one member dropped. The class does seem like a lot of work. Not as much as vulnerable populations but it is still a lot. So far I have found the concepts...

How are you holding up this session? I am taking research next, has it gotten any better? Vulnerable populations has been as much work as every said it is. The papers in that class take me forever! You can make one more week! Then please update on Ca...

Sounds like an awful class! I am dreading it already!! I just need to suck it up and take it next so I can move on. At least you are almost done with the program!
RNTriathlete replied to zoeyzoe's topic in Texas (UTA)
I am also in vulnerable pop right now and it is so time consuming! I am really struggling to get everything done. I am taking it with holistic care of the older adult which is much easier but I would still recommend taking V.P. by itself. I was going...

I am trying to figure out what classes I can double up on as well. I have taken a few of the pre-reqs: technical writing, art, and Texas Govt. Right now I am in Am Lit and U.S. Govt. For Nursing I have take Prof Nursing A&B and Health Assesmen...

I am also going to be starting Art next week, hopefully it will not be too bad. I am taking the Assessment class right now so I will be doubling up next week. You will be very busy in Feb with three classes at once! I think it is manageble, but bu...
I am curious if anyone else has applied to Kaiser's New Grad program. I remember seing some posts about it, but I couldn't find them on a quick search. I just applied and wanted to know if anyone else applied and if they have heard anything. I spo...

as kcdunlap posted, some courses do require you to be in a clinical setting, but this can be your job or a volunteer setting. even in the intro to prof nursing class, it was assumed that we were working and we used our experiences to answer question...

Hi guys, just a small update. I had an interview for a relief nurse position FIVE weeks ago and still have not heard back. By the third week I was calling hr and they promised they would call if I got the position or send a letter if I did not. I am...

I am in California so I had limited understanding of Texas politics. The class has 5 online exams, 1 discussion post each week with the required 2-3 responses, a short power point project (crazy easy) and a five page paper. I have taken 2 exams and...

Thanks for the advice. I am in Texas Govt now (2312) and so far it is good. I have been trying to get ahead on the tests so that December will be easier for me. Maybe when I take Care of Vulnerable populations I will take a gen ed class instead of ...

My understanding is that you can take two nurses classes at the same time. I have not tried to register for them yet, but I do not see why it would be an issue. I think they key is looking at the schedule because not every course is offered each ti...

I am so excited for you Kristy! I know this has been a long journey for you. I hope after you start you will come back and post some sort of update regarding your new life as an RN. Good luck!

I called lac+USC today and they told me to send my resume and they would call when they had something available. This seems very different from Harbor who have told me to just keep calling. Hoping to hear something positive soon. Kristy, I hope you ...

Good luck with your classes, I am sure you will do fine. The advantage of taking one at a time is that it will ease you into study mode and give you an idea how the classes are run. I am sure you will do fine! My advice is to really pay attention ...
