    Is this right?

    I'd like to add that just because you test out of a class doesn't mean that you should skip it. I tested out of College Algebra, and man, it really regretted skipping it in Trig and Calculus (didn't...

    Is this right?

    It absolutely looks like the first semester of pre-nursing. Biology is most likely a pre-requisite for A&P, and Intro to Nursing may not be allowed until you are almost finished with pre-req or...

    Which one did you do while in Nursing school?

    I worked full time nights, so I just worked whatever nights that didn't have clinical the next morning. To be honest, I like to party occasionally, so I wouldn't want to be stuck working every...

    Escalate to Dean ?

    I'm really sorry you have to sit out. I know that it must be so frustrating to put off graduation. That said, I don't think you should escalate this to the dean. I guarantee there is wording in their...

    Rn Nclex

    A graph for what exactly? Whether or not you got question 63 correct? What good will that do? To protect the question bank, they cannot show you the questions again or the rationale. In fact, let's...

    does pearson vue give refunds

    No refunds. Since you failed and need a registration to take it again anyway, you might be able to get them to correct it to the right board of nursing. Give them a call and see what you can work...

    Unusual treatments

    I am too. The IM doc looked at me crazy when I said "It doesn't smell like C-diff." The ER docs knew what was up. If I told one of them that it smelled like C-diff, a stool culture usually

    Hospital Interview help!

    As a new grad, they asked me normal interview questions (you can find many on Youtube) and asked me to relate them to either nursing school or previous jobs that I had. They didn't ask me anything...

    Interview at a hospital

    I would tell them at the interview. Then, I would learn not to put education that you haven't completed/currently in progress on your resume. You can mention your plans in your cover letter. That's...
  11. We had a required 180 hour preceptorship our last semester. It was a very good

    medical assistant

    Wrong. It is illegal to portray yourself as a nurse if you are not one. *Didn't read the other comments. I'm very sure others have already pointed out how very wrong your statement
  13. No. No one can 'challenge' the NCLEX to become a registered nurse. You must go to nursing
  14. I started a job as an ER tech, so I was completely sure I would work there when I graduated. I was completely against L&D and peds like so many of my classmates were. At some point a Facebook...

    Non Reactive Hep B Titer

    Just imagine all the nurses who were once immune but aren't anymore and they don't know. While it is a risk, it's just not a huge one. A back injury is more likely to take you
  16. The only thing we got to choose was our preceptorship. None of the other schools let students pick where they want to be either. If I had my choice, I would have been on the same floor, and that...

    Non Reactive Hep B Titer

    Unless you're having sex with or sharing needles with someone with Hep B, your chances of getting it aren't really that high. Just use standard precautions and you should be fine even without...

    Quit during orientation

    Haha ok. I'm done with this thread.
  19. Exactly. You should worry about it.You are not currently residing in MD, so you cannot use that form. If they for whatever determine you were lying, you could get in trouble. Just email them for the...
  20. Maryland's BON website says to email someone to get the specific out-of-state application form. I would just follow their directions. Don't go bending the truth... It might bite you in the behind...

    Failed A Course...

    I'm glad you like my answers, but I truly hope your intent is not to use them for your case of "discrimination." My answers are completely anecdotal. They are not proof or evidence of anything. Every...
