    It would make more sense to send out campus assignments before assigning alternates, because more applicatnts will drop if they don't get their preferred campus. I just wish they would hurry

    olioxenfree replied to bonjournurse2b's topic in General Students

    810 points out of 900 means that a 90% is an A. That is normal grading scale. I've never heard of A- vs A+ point split outside of highschool, but they must be doing it for competitive

    We can purchase any brand. You should try different ones on to see which type works best for you. I went with the Littman Cardio III mainly because it came with a mail in offer for an introduction to...

  7. Dealing with mistakes

    olioxenfree replied to TurtleCat's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Don't beat yourself up. I would suggest to your boss that each patient (or their family) write up laundry notes to be kept in room stating if/which items require special laundering. It should not be...

  8. Schedule question A&P1 and Chemistry????

    olioxenfree replied to mrsvickerie2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have recently have taken both (not at the same time) but I can say that I would not recommend it. A&P, at least at my school, requires a lot of memorization and was very time consuming. The list...

  9. Role of Hospice RN at a death.

    olioxenfree replied to HillieRN's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    The financial aid department will be flooded with people once registration opens, so that is certainly one area you want taken care of. If you are an HCC student already you won't need to do the HCC...

    olioxenfree replied to hallberry's topic in Florida Nursing

    You can make your FAFSA available to muliple schools. Federal Aid doesn't get officially processed until you register for classes, so muliple schools can offer you award packages. It seems like in...

    olioxenfree replied to hallberry's topic in Florida Nursing

    Something sounds askew. Perhaps your friend's 3.2 was overall GPA, not pre-req. In anycase I'm sorry to hear about your bad news. Perhaps, Spring semester will find you better

    Great advice!!! I was debating on drop-off vs. mailing

  18. Is it right to pursue nursing if the school is 2 hrs away from husband & kids?

    olioxenfree replied to fbanh's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  23. Want to quit nursing school.

    olioxenfree replied to dpf112's topic in General Students

    LOL She cannot give her spot to someone else mid program! Stick with it girl. Even if you choose not to become a nurse, a degree will look much better on a resume than dropping out will. Try to find...
