I took my OCN test today and passed. I found that the questions in that book were not like the questions on the test, but the information was good. I did not go through many of them, though. I personally didn't do any review courses, but I have heard good things about them.

Does her oncologist's office do chemo infusions? If so, they likely have the hood there. Can their pharmacy crush the pills?

Thank you!

Are any of the hospitals in the Kansas City area hiring new grad ADNs?

I took all of my pre-reqs online and got into TCC's program. They don't take that into consideration at all.

Hill2010, the HESI really isn't bad. If you have not yet looked over the review book, I would suggest that. Try not to stress out too much. You have a 4.0, so you are definitely capable of acing this test. I'm sure you'll do great.

Anyone know when summer schedule comes out?

I'm happy enough with mine.

I'm scheduled for 8am! So excited!

That should be it. Schedule, fee statement, license.

I have a question about the HESI Case Studies thing. Is that an actual book or an online access thing? I seemed to remember that it was one of those online things we were going to sign up for at school and they said we could pay for it at that time if we wanted. Is that right?

I got registered on the phone too! Have been stressing about that all day up here at work until I decided to see if you guys had posted anything about it. Thanks!

kmart - Yes. I've been told by new grad/new hires that they seem to hire pretty equally from all of the schools around here, whether they are ADN or BSN programs. I work with several people that were hired straight out of TCC as new grads.

No txhusker. I think that's it. Moving is such a pain!

I took A&P 1 and chem together and A&P 2 and micro together. I made A's in all of them, so it is doable. Whether or not I'd recommend it depends on the person. The amount of competition is crazy, so you really have to aim for A's in your sciences. I would do it that way again if I had the choice to make all over again, but I won't deny that I was really stressed sometimes. You know how much you can handle! :) Just don't bite off more than you can chew! Good luck! I'm sure you guys will do great.
