  1. It does sound like you have a poor advisor. I guess I am lucky that I have not had to enlist the help of my advisor too much. I do have to call her this Friday to take the little break I have...

    Grand Canyon RN-BSN

    My facility had paid BSNs in the past an extra dollar an hour. Earlier this year they announced that they would no longer do this, but for those that received it up to this point will continue to...

  6. Does it make sense to possibly pay $200 and still not know if you passed or failed for sure? Just wait the 48 hours, it is literally 2

    I have always used a different title for my papers until recently. Now it is just similar to the assignment description. Why do I need to be creative on a title. My last paper came back with 1%...

    Nursing as a Career

    I find that nursing is more mentally exhausting than physical but there is definitely a physical quality to the job. As far as always working and not having breaks, this is something that you will...

    3-4 week wait for ATT?

    It may be different in your state, but here they state BON issues the ATT once approved. The ATT is a non-descript number issued that you have to enter when registering to take your exam. I had paid...

    Pink, Owl Purdue, PERRLA, and the GCU learning center and resources are invaluable. Once you do two or three papers you will get in the groove. Once you get to the middle of the program you will be...

    I agree with the others, I think many posts get lost in cyberspace. This happens to me a lot and I think it is usually something with my laptop or internet connection. Right now I am having problems...

    In second year and don't feel skilled enough

    I think that many if not all nursing students feel this same way as they near the end of their academic career. It is a big step and a big responsibility and the fact that you are thinking about it...

    Little vent here: I am trying to finish my discussions for ethics this week and I just can't do it. Every original discussion post is the same, all these nurses are stating that the Hippocratic Oath...

  21. I have someone that responded to one of my DQ today that has to have come from somewhere. I actually spent time searching (why spend my time wisely and do my paper due Sunday) but could not find...
  22. I have worried about this ever since I applied to a "Christian" university and noticed I had to take a class called spirituality... If I have to bare my feelings I am going to make people really...
  23. Before I got switched out of a class because the instructor was off the wall and taking a break I had many of the same classmates in each class. Once I was switched out of that "track" the people...

    Look on the GCU portal under academics and look at your academic schedule. It gives you the prospective start and stop dates for each class. Then you can figure out what class you will be in around...
