    sueall replied to River Song, RN's topic in School

    sueall replied to MommyRN15's topic in Texas Nursing

    If you will be living close to the I-45 HOV lane in Spring, check to see if the METRO HOV lane buses run down to the Med Center. It will save you drive time and parking costs. Otherwise, I know...

  7. Has anyone used NRSNG.com?

    sueall replied to mc-escher's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Jon Haws, the NRSNG Academy creator and owner, knows his stuff. No question. But you have to consciously shut out his constantly saying "Okay?" at the beginning, middle and/or end of every other...

  12. LPN or Medical Assistant

    sueall replied to BSNMomOf6's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Just a thought -- your forum name is "WantToBeMidwife." Correct me if I'm wrong (truly!), but I believe midwifery is an advanced practice RN role. The LVN route would be a step in that direction, MA...

  13. Opinions of Lisa Arends for Excelsior College.

    SG101 = MyStudyGroup101 LLC I love their audio CDs. I listen to them in the car while making my daily sitting-in-Houston-traffic

  14. A couple of questions about Houston schools

    sueall replied to Kmasheld's topic in Texas Nursing

    I can say only that the Texas BON's website shows that the HCC ADN program is being downrated from "Full Approval" to "Full Approval With Warning" due to low NCLEX pass rates. This change appears in...

  20. Is this a Scam?

    sueall replied to nursing student 1's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    You can find the same type of questions in readily-available study guides and free on-line sources. I'm leery of pay-for-use sites that have "fabulous" sample questions, then want you to pay for...

    sueall replied to NurseGirl525's topic in General Students

    I read OP as meaning "the nitty gritty heavy duty stuff," which Med/Surg truly is. I'm betting she can already pour a mean cuppa

    sueall replied to lampard's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Our pharm class had a clique that always sat in the back. They swore up and down they were not disruptive, but they were constantly glancing at each other, smiling or gesturing, texting back and...
