Congratulations to all of you that got into the program! It's a wild but fun ride. I just want to give you guys some advice. If you have a facebook group at this point, at least create seperate facebook accounts that you use just for school. And,...

Of course I just HAD to look this one up. The dictionary has a brief history on it. Apparently it was always pronounced "often" until some of the more educated started to pronounce it "offen." Interesting. Therefore I've got to say offen is incor...

I don't see how you could have completed a BS and/or MBA without writing papers. It takes great skill to expand on a word enough to pull several pages out of it. It's not stupid.

Your immunizations are important to take care of now. Especially the ones that require a series. I wouldn't want to be at the hospital unimmunized! Some people from this semester had a hard time getting health insurance so if I were you guys I'd st...

Hey guys, you all seem to have great stats! Even though I'm sure a lot of people applied, remember that most people probably applied to more than one school. I think last fall they went down to alternate # 47! If your points are over 70 I wouldn't...

Hey guys I'm more than happy to answer your questions. Sorry about the inbox issue. I thought I cleared it recently. Anyway, the program is way less work than I expected. I am a super over studier and I do things way ahead of time and I'm still f...

Wow, just a few months ago I was in the same boat as all of you! I just started the program this Spring and I LOVE it! Good luck to everybody. I was not expecting for the program to be as great as it is. Of course we've only completed 3 weeks, bu...

Was just going through the forum and noticed this post. I think I was confused about how the evolve system works and we all have to pay for our own books separately.

So I'm a nursing student and I'm currently watching a video on needle sticks. It states that if you are wearing latex gloves, about 50% less blood is present on the needle by the time it reaches your skin.

I would take a look at some of the stories from past posters who have had needle stick injuries. I haven't seen anybody who posted in your same position come back with a positive result. You are most likely just fine, but your concern is of course ...

Sign up for Facebook. It's easy and free. Then join the group and you'll see what we're doing. :)

I'm done posting here on Allnurses in this thread and I encourage everybody else to join the facebook group. :)

Just so everybody knows, we are allowed to take the quizzes together. Anybody who wants to join us in working on the first couple of quizzes join the Facebook group for information on when/where we're meeting. I actually emailed Dr**. Here respons...

Yes, lessons 1 & 2, and I don't see any problem doing the module quizzes.

You have to go to the library. Don't worry I was confused about it too

I understand the frustration that a lot of ADNs feel. I'm a new nursing student so I've read a lot on the forums about ADNs being passed over for jobs that are then given to BSNs. I have to say, while an ADN nurse is well qualified to perform their...

No, I think they're supposed to be open book/open note.

Hep B taking 6 months to complete is different than people who are still awaiting their results because they waited until the last minute to get started. It's better to have people in the program that did better on the prerequisites and testing. So ...

I have the ebooks and I like it just fine, but I've also worked with ebooks before and I think they fit me pretty well. I have no organizational ideas, but I bet we'll get a ton of tips at orientation. Don't be scared. As you can see, you've got a ...

dreambig you should have access to the nursing source page on sacCT. That's where you can find the information. If you don't have access ask ----------- for it. Then click on groups on the left hand side and you should see Fall 2014. Go in and lo...

Don't worry about it too much. You could easily complete the modules in a day. Question alam, are you referring to the 6 question quizzes within the modules or the entire module quizzes? I wanted to take the entire module quizzes but was afraid th...

Yeah that's about it. Although I'd start the modules for the second week too.

OK so after going through the modules yeah they're easy, but who knows what kind of questions will be on the quizzes. They could be very detailed or general. If anybody's down for a study group after orientation I'm up for it! We could just come ...

The modules are super boring so it's taking me like 2 hours per module. It's really not that bad in terms of time, and we only have 2 for the first week. I would think if you're approved until December that you don't have to upload the new forms. ...

For the Kaiser documents, what are we supposed to put for employee ID, work phone, and effective date????
