  1. second level fall 2012

    I finished up my 1st year, and it was a doozie. I ended up getting into psych and maternity during the summer to make my fall load easier, I was very lucky because about 10 students get into both...
  2. Drop out rate

    that is from the class that just graduated. We had started with 80 and are down to about 50 as of right now I would say, and have finished the 2nd semester so that would give my class about a 37.5%...
  3. sleep

    No sleep, No picking schedule. I had a little more sleep the second semester than the first. The first semester I actually had numerous 2-3 hour nightly sleeps, which was not due to procrastination,...

  6. I would think that it would work out okay if you get it taken care of. I also think that you will have a problem if you don't before you get a background check for school, I can't see them letting you...
  7. What time do you start clinical?

    I will start at 7a, some of my classmates are at 5a-3 because they are on Mondays and we have class afterwards from 4-7. Thats going to be a long day for them, especially since it is an hour drive for...

  11. Summer fun? ...sleep?! Relax?!

    I want a break, lol:) I am grateful though because I managed to get into the condesed summer psych rotation, and maternity (Less than 15% of the class gets into both). Our final for med surg was May...
  12. What do you want the school to do, fail the student their freshman year when they passed all of the tests? How is the school wasting the students' time, the student is the one that passed until their...
  13. This is a great explanation, and seems to be the truth. Why wouldn't the school want to weed out the students that can not pass the NCLEX? You must take the NCLEX to become a nurse. The school does...
  14. Did you lose any students?

    In an ADN program, we started with 80 and am down to 56 after the first year. The graduating class had 50 until finals, and ended up graduating

  16. Are you working while going to nursing school?

    Well if you have children, then I would say working would be extremely difficult. If you do not have kids then I would say that working would be okay. Either way it will be difficult, but not...

    There is alot of information but I am glad that I am learning it. I especially enjoy nursing school because of how it applies to outside of school. I now understand nutrition, f&e, normal ranges...
  18. Backing out of RN school

    I don't think that your school sounds that bad. Yes we have to read ourselves and teach ourselves, I am sure that if you don't understand something after you try to learn it, there is someone that can...
  19. Does your school use a "test center"?

    At our school we do not go to the test center we are in the classroom with our instructors. ABSOLUTELY NO CELL PHONES IN THE ROOM, thats an automatic failure. Our books/coats are in the back of the...
