1. Clinical Site Rules for Your School?

   amanda081106 replied to lilarox's topic in General Students

   I think it depends on several different factors, the facility and the clinical instructor being the biggest two. Last semester we didn't do any of the actual charting. The facility I was at had specific notebooks for students, and we simply wrote in ...

2. I failed my first exam. Now what?

   amanda081106 replied to amanda081106's topic in General Students

   I definitely do worry more than the average person. It's not so much that class (Fundamentals) that I'm worried about. It's my Health Assessment class, which is the exam I have Tuesday. That particular exam is only going to have 35 questions, which c...

3. I failed my first exam. Now what?

   amanda081106 posted a topic in General Students

   I just finished my third week of nursing school. Our first exam was on Monday and I was feeling pretty good about it. Two days ago, we got our results and I was terrified to look at my score - and for good reason, seeing as how I only made a 69. I cr...

4. Anyone going to CACC?

   amanda081106 replied to 2bnurselove08's topic in Alabama

   I'm glad to hear your interested. I've only just been accepted into the program, so I don't know much about it yet, and I know nothing about the delayed program. However, I have been attending CACC for about two years now, taking the classes I needed...

5. What do I need for nursing school?

   Thank you all for the advice. It is much appreciated!

6. Nursing students required to have health insurance?

   amanda081106 posted a topic in General Students

   I was just reading through the paper-work I received alongside my acceptance letter into the ADN program. It states, "Health insurance is required. If you do not have health insurance coverage, you need to apply as soon as possible, because there is...

7. Never give up!

   amanda081106 replied to amanda081106's topic in General Nursing

   Thank you all so much for the encouragement! I am enrolled in the ADN program. I'm a little nervous, but mostly just really excited.

8. What do I need for nursing school?

   amanda081106 posted a topic in General Students

   I just got my acceptance letter into the ADN program at my school and am curious as to what all I will need? I know the school does the whole nursing packet that you buy at the beginning of the semester, but what else would you suggest? Things like b...

9. Never give up!

   amanda081106 posted a topic in General Nursing

   I came home tonight to find a letter laying on my bed, from my school. I was hesitant to open it. I just didn't believe I had done well enough in my classes or on the TEAS, and I cringed at the thought of yet another rejection letter. I eventually ta...

10. CNA worth the time?

    amanda081106 posted a topic in CNA/MA

    I've put a lot of thought into the CNA program, mostly just to work until and if I ever get accepted into nursing school. I suppose, it could act as a backup plan as well; which is how I'm feeling at this point. Anyway, I live in Alabama and from wh...

11. Is it Worth it to Buy the ATI TEAS Online Practice Assessment Test?

    amanda081106 replied to live&love&heal's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I know this was posted a few months ago, but did you have trouble accessing the practice assessment after you purchased it? I am being told I need an ID number. Then again, maybe I simply don't know what I'm doing. How did you access it?

12. A&P Critical Thinking Help?

    amanda081106 replied to amanda081106's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I figured it out. The answers were right in front of me, I just wasn't seeing them. Thank you.

13. A&P Critical Thinking Help?

    amanda081106 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

    I have three questions of which I am not completely sure about the answer. Our book or notes, if you can even call it that, are made by the teacher with fill-in-the-blanks that we fill in as she lectures. I have found it hard to use and cannot for th...

14. I need advice, help, information. Just something to get my hopes back up.

    amanda081106 replied to amanda081106's topic in LPN/LVN Students

    It's all pretty confusing. The different types of schools and whether they credits will transfer. I don't exactly love the school I'm at, but it's only 20 minutes from my house, so it's my first choice for Nursing. They aren't helpful and usually can...

    amanda081106 replied to amanda081106's topic in LPN/LVN Students

    I'm trying at community colleges. I have my eye on two, both within driving distance. The one I have the best chances at, is an hour away, but I can manage that. If all else fails, I'll try a trade school. I'm just afraid of going that route and not ...
