So I have officially passed nursing school!!! It feels so unreal. I have had a lot of things happen through out the course of school, some of which held me back. Starting school in Jan 2013 and after failing my second semester and having to get back ...

Hey All, I am in my last semester of Nursing school..YAYYY! and it has been a HARD road to get here but now that I'm almost done I'm starting to think about working and applying. I have been a tech on a specialty unit for 5 years now and I love me j...

YES! its not a good feeling at all, esp when you work so hard and go above and beyond to only have your work ethic get over looked by something that's out of my control.

Well the reason is I know its tough to get a job as a new grad straight out an on a specialty unit AND on a specialty unit I actually want to make my career. So when I got the job as a tech in the Level II nursery and LOVED it, I worked hard stood ou...

Oh trust me I know I've seen it happen on my very own unit (different manager though) so I take it with a grain of salt.

I do over think...I just wanted to be treated like the other techs now nurses when they secured their position 3 months in advance. If my manager would have just been honest and not lie and say its a hospital policy. That just seems shady to me.. And...

I understand that and I am going to start applying else where; I was just going off what my DON said about me having a guaranteed position. But the manager that's under her saying I have to wait until someone quits

Thanks!

Hello All, I got accepted into TTC Fall 2013 nursing program. I am going to apply for the merit placement for Spring 2013 and I just wanted to know if anyone has ever applied for it, and how many points they had to get in. And if anyone knows about ...

Ok, I started my nursing journey with my sis in law, well we jus got finish our first semester last week and I passed (barley) an she failed. Well we both needed to pass the final to pass..she needed a 88 or something and I needed a 72 well before go...

And by no means was I prying into her business, we BOTH were very close to failing and she asked me what I would do if I had fail before we took the final, and I let her knw I would re apply because I worked so hard to get into the program. We talk n...

Thanks, she still isn't really talking to me, but it's ok, I'm just going keep pushing on to graduate.

It's hard and time consuming too me. It's a lot of work. I enjoy learning the skills though. Ready to be an RN already.

I tried to reach out twice since the class ended one week ago, I ask her if she would re apply and try to get in for fall...and each time she says "we'll see" never an answer. So I'm not going to talk about the program with her anymore I'll let her c...

Yes I'm learning this. I'm in the next semester now and it's already a whirl wind.

@mskrisrn I did the merit but didn't get in early with that, did not have much points. But I still started a semester early because people drop out, don't go to orientation, etc...so I'm sure your probably going get bumped up without merit...my origi...

Hey guys, Can't believe I passed my first semester of NS. I studied so hard but still was failing the tests, ended up passing the class with exactly a C I had no wiggle room AT ALL this has happen for 2 of the 4 classes this semester. I know it's pa...
