  1. Navy NCP FY2014 'Role call'

    StudentForever77 posted a topic in Government, Military

    Hi all, I' d like to connect with other Navy NCP FY 2014 students. There was a thread started awhile back about someone starting a FB page for us but no one replies to the 'friend request' :-( Any...

  2. Navy NCP FY2014 'Role call'

    StudentForever77 replied to StudentForever77's topic in Government, Military

    Hey there! Any April/May/June grads hearing from the detailer or accessions yet? Any discussions about your DPS? Sent mine back and haven't heard from anyone... Hoping to square away soon

  3. Navy NCP FY2014 'Role call'

    StudentForever77 replied to StudentForever77's topic in Government, Military

    Hey elisabethm! I think all of us graduating in the next +/- 6 months got the dream sheet... I got that email yesterday, too :-) I'm so excited and nervous at the same time... Took me no time flat...

    StudentForever77 replied to mstein86's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    teacher08 - Absolutely no need to apologize... I just wanted to make sure that my intent is clear. Thank you for your kind reply... I certainly hope that I didn't come off as a jerk. You're right -...

  5. Need advice about a dishonest teacher!!

    StudentForever77 replied to ipour14u's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm the type that pushes for change and improvement...and a huge 'risk taker'...that stated... Your prof seems to have some high standards. But not insane. I had all essay and fill in exams...proper...

  6. Took NCLEX, not sure what to do...

    StudentForever77 replied to mstein86's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    teacher08 Wow. "Does it mean the institution was successful with educating 98% of its students? OR did the institution fail to educated 77% of its students? The latter is rarely expound upon." It...

  7. Please share your GPAs??

    StudentForever77 replied to sixela21's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    OP... What good is it really going to do for you having folks post their GPAs...aside from helping you beat yourself up some more for nada? Forget about everyone else. Unless they went to the same...

  8. Question about IM vs IV injection, when to aspirate, what to look for

    StudentForever77 replied to jeshicuhx3's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    What I learned is that if you get a blood return, you're in a vessel (doesnt necessarily mean it's a vein) and if you continue on to inject, you're no longer giving an IM... youre shooting it into the...

  9. Olivet Nazarene University ABSN Program

    StudentForever77 replied to KTCJWB1's topic in Illinois Nursing

    Sunflower - I should clarify my statement about feeling prepared for the NCLEX. I am truly speaking for myself when I say that I'm not worried about passing. My confidence has little, if anything,...

  10. Took NCLEX, not sure what to do...

    StudentForever77 replied to mstein86's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Nalon1 Im not specifically targeting non accredited institutions. I've never been to one so I can't assume what they do or don't do... that's why I asked. The NCLEX is designed to determine if you...

  11. Took NCLEX, not sure what to do...

    StudentForever77 replied to mstein86's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Mstein86 No I'm not saying you should have been held back... I'm saying that I think the school did a poor job of preparing you...and you're paying the price...and that's really crappy that you have...

  12. Took NCLEX, not sure what to do...

    StudentForever77 replied to mstein86's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Maybe it's wrong of me but I can't help but wonder....Those that failed more than once... You all graduated from an accredited college, right? I ask because I feel like your college failed you, in a...

  13. Olivet Nazarene University ABSN Program

    StudentForever77 replied to KTCJWB1's topic in Illinois Nursing

    Sorry locjoie... I have been buried... I rarely check messages here and only randomly jump on boards (the unpredictable it's-midnight-and-I-can't-sleep visit!). I didn't subscribe to this one so I...

  14. Olivet Nazarene University ABSN Program

    StudentForever77 replied to KTCJWB1's topic in Illinois Nursing

    Sunflower - I feel that NCLEX prep falls into your own hands to a degree. I mean technically, if you read the textbooks, go to clinicals, and do the NCLEX exam reviews, you can pass the NCLEX. We...

  15. How many men in your cohort?

    StudentForever77 replied to Caribbean Character's topic in Male Nursing Students

    We had 2 out of 24 to start. Now it's down to 1 in

  16. Reactions to being a NP

    StudentForever77 replied to orangepink's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    IcySageNurse, I also agree with you wholeheartedly. .. I am also a BSN student (second degree) and even I see what will come of the profession if standards aren't set appropriately high....

  18. CPR actually WORKS!

  19. Too old for Army CRNA?

    StudentForever77 replied to Nambo's topic in Government, Military

    Well that's good news! During the 20 years my husband put in, he spent about 70% of his career putting in overtime...By the time you broke down his pay without getting paid for all the extra hours...

  20. Too old for Army CRNA?

    StudentForever77 replied to Nambo's topic in Government, Military

    I agree, wtbcrna... Pay works out in the long run. Takes some time to get there, though and depending where you're located, civilians may advance in pay a bit quicker than military counterparts, based...

  21. Current Nursing Student Considering The Military

    StudentForever77 replied to RayJordan's topic in Government, Military

    I'd tell her to be honest. The consequences of trying to hide it and getting caught later on would be much

  22. Too old for Army CRNA?

    StudentForever77 replied to Nambo's topic in Government, Military

    I think it's also important to clarify that a CRNA requires a Masters degree, which won't make you a 'doctor'. Of course, if a doctor title is of interest, you could continue on and get a doctorate in...

  23. Navy Medical Recruiter near Chicago

    StudentForever77 replied to chaplngrillsgt's topic in Government, Military

    Redruby... No you can't just sign up... Getting in is time consuming and competitive. There are several ways to join... I would recommend searching the boards for details. If you're an experienced RN...

  25. Nurse Candidate Program (In need of information)

    StudentForever77 replied to Michael3025's topic in Government, Military

    Michael, If enlisting seems to be such a bummer, please stop considering it. Im in the NCP. My husband retired from the Navy with 20. I can tell you that if enlisting is some sort of ho-hum last...
