  1. Motlow Applicants 2014

    There are people in the program who are working and attending.. I couldn't imagine doing it. Just nursing school exhausts me, lol. I didn't buy anything at orientation. I'm cheap and they really...
  2. Motlow Applicants 2014

    Everything is out of pocket, but some get enough financial aid to pay yourself back. Congrats
  3. Motlow Applicants 2014

    I took RODP micro online the summer before nursing school. It was the hardest class ever. I hated it. I had virtual labs, I think I only had to show up for a couple of proctored exams. I would not...
  4. Motlow Applicants 2014

    There are lots of clinical sites. From Fayetteveille to Smyrna. Mcminnville, Manchester, Shelbyville, Tullahoma, Murfreesboro. You get a second chance if you fail a course. I know nothing about...

    It's sooo much faster, you don't need as much drug info second year. No more drug cards
  6. Motlow Applicants 2014

    I don't use ebooks, hate them. I like to sell my books when I'm finished with them (they will all be for sell in a few weeks, lol).. I have never used books during clinical other than my drug book...
  7. Motlow Applicants 2014

    Honestly, there is nothing you can do to really prepare… The "Test Success" book helps with testing (along with Fundamentals Success and the rest in the series). Be prepared for the amount of time...
  8. Motlow Applicants 2014

    I think there are fantastic teachers and not-so-great teachers in the program. I LOVE that each teacher is responsible for their own content, so we have different teachers throughout the semester. I...
  9. Motlow Applicants 2014

    I have not found this to be the case. I think the cna's and those with experience only have the advantage in clinicals in the first semester. LPN's have an advantage because they are more familiar...
  10. I don't think the later application will affect your application. Everybody else applying will be in the same boat
  11. Did u get a letter or email?

    Ours only sends
  12. Little personal

    I graduate in May and I've found it harder on my husband than I thought. When I realized how bad it was for him, I just made more of an effort to meet his needs. I was tired and pushed him away. But...
  13. Motlow fall 2013

    Apparently that's a whole different program you need to apply for…. I don't know anything about it and have never heard of anyone using it. Maybe it will work for you, you should contact Motlow for...
  14. Motlow fall 2013

    That's not possible. Even if your past grades are 30 years old, they are still gonna be there and average into your gpa. The only way to remove them is to retake the classes. I know it stinks,...
  15. Motlow fall 2013

    Your credits will never expire. You can still retake classes and bring up your gpa, no need to wait. Motlow is awesome, but the nursing program is very tough. Have to have determination and work hard....
  16. Dosage problem

    Is the answer
  17. Get some energy and motivation back to pursue further education? I graduate in May with my adn and cannot imagine ever being able to begin again for a bsn. I'm exhausted and burnt out. Are 2 year...
  18. Compass test

    I would focus on Math. I didn't want to take remedial courses and hadn't had any math in 15+ years so I borrowed a friend's homeschool math books and studied for months. I am really glad I did. (I...
  19. Electronics in Nursing School

    I use a macbook for everything. I don't even carry paper with me. I don't print power points, just annotate them during lectures. I cannot imagine why my method is so rare. Out of my class of 80ish,...
  20. Class of 2014

    Another May graduate hopeful here :) I also can't believe I'm getting this close. Final exam Tues, then a much needed 5 week break! Hope it's the slowest 5 weeks ever, then time can speed back up...
  21. Help with care plan

    I'll just think out loud and give you a few thoughts about how they are written… It's hard to know the priority without seeing the patient. I learned that: A surgical procedure can't be a r/t...
  22. my feet!!! :(

    Jobst Relief Compression Stockings I'm not working yet, but I can tell a huge difference when I wear these to
  23. Just out of curiosity, I'm wondering what other schools have done when they have had a large majority of the class fail an exam? We have around 80 in our second yr adn class and our first exam...
  24. I'm a student nurse and this is just a "what would you do" question. My husband went to a church camp this weekend and was a cabin leader for 15 ten year olds. There is no formal med policy at this...
  25. Curious about how to handle this situation..

    Thanks everyone for your thoughts. It has given me a lot to think about. I'm really not interested in ever going to camp myself or becoming involved in its policies or decisions (even though I see...
