Hi everyone. I need a little help. We've just begun our second round of clinical rotations. This time around we're supposed to practice giving report on our patient (written). It seems that I always leave something out or put it in the wrong order. D...

Hi ekirkpat. I'm in almost the same boat as you. I recently graduated from a PN program in NY and I'll be relocating to NC as soon as I pass the NCLEX (positive thinking) :wink2: . Here's how I'VE been handling it...I'm going to sit for the NCLEX-PN ...

Hi everybody and Happy Labor Day! I'm just curious...how long did it take between graduation and actually sitting for your NCLEX? I graduate from my LPN program on September 28th :mortarboard: ...FINALLY!!!!! I'll have all of my requirements (nothing...

:welcome: to the wonderful world of nursing school . I can totally relate to all you're saying. I graduate from my LPN program in 4 weeks and all I can say is that it's been like nothing I've ever experienced in my life. We started out with a class ...

Hello. Yes, I am currently finishing up in my LPN program...graduation is September . I plan to begin pursuing my RN through Excelsior in October or November. The major advice that I've been given is to make a time table, stick to it, and stay organi...

Hi everybody. Quick question for anyone with experience at Excelsior...will they allow you to get study guides for things like NC1 and 2 before actually enrolling. Just asking because I'm planning on taking my A&P, micro, NC1 and NC 2 BEFORE actu...

Congratulations to everyone finishing up AND to everyone that's starting out. I have exactly 4 months to go...they just gacve us our graduation date...September 28, 2006 :mortarboard: . I can't wait. Eka69...I can totally relate...my class is so divi...

Hi SuperMo. I'll be relocating to the Charlotte area at the start of the new year. I finish my LPN in September and I was wondering if you could tell me where the LPN jobs in and around Charlotte are. Thanks for your help.

Hi all. PN student here! Four months left of an 18 month program and I can not wait for it to be over. It's been a looong journey...literally. My commute is about 70 miles round trip and I live in NYC so by the time you factor in traffic and gas...Sh...

Thank you, KiyasMom and congratulations. I'm aware that I'll have to actually enroll before I can take NC 3-6 and I'll definitely do that. I'm just delaying enrollment because as of now I'm still an LPN student but I want to take the pre-reqs...A&...

I definitely know where you're coming from regarding the time and the financial aid. I got my BA in English with a minor in urban education a few years ago. I became certified and taught junior high and high school for about a year and a half. I deci...

Hi...I have a question. Were you actually enrolled in Excelsior or did you just register to take exams? I'm trying to figure out if they offer study guides and course outlines specific to each exam (ex. NC1 & 2, A&P, micro). I saw on the webs...

Thanks. I realized what I did wrong...not a night person .

I am not yet a nurse, but I will reply to you as a former high school English teacher and someone who has decided to pursue nursing as a career. It went a little differently for me. I decided that I did NOT want to teach while I was still doing my st...

Hi. This sounds like a wonderful resource however when I went to the site all I got was links to other places like Kaplan. Am I doing something wrong? I hate to seem so clueless, but could you help me out?

TriniAngel tuition for the class that just started in September was roughly $10,000. I'm not sure of the exact amount but I do know that it was just over that amount. Financial aid IS available. They work it just like you're applying to college.

Hi everyone...I need some advice. Pleeeaaassse???!!! My husband and I have finally decided to relocate to North Carolina. He's leaning towards the Fayetteville area and I'm leaning more towards the Charlotte or Raleigh areas. However, that's not real...

Yes, I'm aware that I'd definitely be making less money in NC. I didn't realize that the difference was that great. But, everyone I've asked (that lives there already) seems to think that the cost of living is decent enough to live fairly well. Here ...

hey triniangel, i currently attend western suffolk boces' part time, evening program in northport, li. it's an 18 month program (m-th 6pm-10pm and every other saturday from 8am-3pm). it's a very intense program and we've lost just about half of our o...

Thank you both so much for your replies. I think you're both probably right. Entrance into a NY nursing program is far from guaranteed although I think I'll probably have a much better chance of getting in here than in NC. I will have a BA in English...

VickyRN, I hope you don't mind but I sent you a PM.

Hello everyone. I have a question and I feel really silly for asking, but a friend of mine just asked me how long it takes for birth control pills to "clear" your system. I am currently only a student and I have no experience with birth control pills...

Hi everyone. I have a rehab assignment coming up and I need diagrams of 3 and 4 point gaits. The assigment has to do with the use of canes, walkers and crutches. I had seen a link to a site that had these, but I can't seem to find them now. Can anyon...

Thanks Siri :wink2:

Hi Florence67. I currently attend a part-time, evening program. We are 5 1/2 months into an 18 month program and let me tell you that the pace is VERY hectic. There are some weeks that we have a test every day (the program is Monday thru Thursday and...
