Just want to say another congratulations to all the new incoming student nurses! My class (kingwood RN C/O2014) will be having our pinning ceremony on December 11, 2014! I am so excited! It has been a tough journey but I did it! Good Luck to you all!

OOOh Let me see if I can remember lol. They went over everything we can expect as a Nursing Student, testing, class work and we had to sign papers I believe. Can't really remember everything : )

I'm sure you have the right thing Christian!

@Christian O, Have you gotten your books/book package for classes yet? If so, you can start there. Most lab values in our Nursing books are in the Appendix in the back of our books. The lab values for me were pretty much by memorization. The more tes...

@Christian O, You're not ignorant and that's ok that you do not know but lab values are like references used by Nurses, doctors, etc which helps us interpret test results when a patient have his/her blood drawn. Some lab values are WBC, RBC, BUN, CRE...

@Christian O, ALSO MEDICATIONS!!! REMEMBER AS MANY AS YOU CAN AND WHAT THEY ARE USED FOR!!!!

@Christian O, Get all lab values stuck in your head as much as you can!!!!!

CONGRATS TO EVERYONE WHO WAS ACCEPTED INTO THE NURSING PROGRAM!!! I remember feeling exactly like you all when I received my acceptance letter to Kingwood. Get ready for a interesting ride! Nursing school is like no other but it is so worth it. You m...

@Christian O.....cool! I will be on and off here throughout this last semester, so when It gets close to December I will let you know!!! : ))))

I will be graduating from Kingwood's RN program in December. I will have some study material for sell if anyone is interested!

@lucylusp, the schools do not sell scrubs (well at least Kingwood doesn't). Some of my classmates get our scrubs from scrubs etc and Grey's Anatomy is a good brand!

OK, good luck and you made it this far so I know you will do great!!!

@amood06, Thanks hun! You will get through it soon! It was the same way for us all in my class but we made it and you will too!!! What campus are you at?

No problem and Thanks! Never listen to what people say about what YOU can or can not do! Find things out by doing it and proving them wrong! You will be fine!!!!!! There are plenty of Nursing jobs waiting for us to fill them up!!!!

@cassybear, I will find a job first but I will still go for my BSN while working. Not difficult at all. Alot of the new nursing grads from Kingwood have already found jobs

Anytime and @Gabicita, yes I will study extra hard for Nclex plus I am paying to take the Hurst or Kaplan review so I'm sure I will do fine! Thanks!

Hey y'all! I know I haven't been posting in a while but I have been so busy with my last semester of Nursing school! YAY! Just want to remind you guys to make sure you keep up to date on your immunizations especially for Clinicals because they WILL N...

@shayboggie15, you are welcome!

@derma2016, No problem and I understand. I had all of mine taken as well!! It will be over in no time! Goes by extremely fast!

@derma2016, you have to follow whatever school you are going to plan. You can't pick and choose what classes you want to take once you are accepted (if that's what you mean). Each semester has it's own courses you must take. There is an order of nurs...

@derma2016, THANKS. Yep I had all my classes I needed when I applied to the program. Any class with RNSG before it can only be taken once you are accepted into the program. Nursing skills was taken once I got into the program.

@christian o, yep chamberlain is extremely expensive! I bought my scrubs close to the time school was starting and we have to wear navy blue scrubs.

@gabicita, yes chamberlain is nice! And thanks, I applied to chamberlain around the same time I applied to Kingwood and was accepted to both, so hopefully I wouldn't have too much of a problem being accepted! : )))

I was looking into different ones. More into Chamberlain College of Nursing
