  1. UUUUUGGGGG, I can't wait to be done with this program. The longer I am in the program the more I have learned to dislike it. I messaged my current instructor for AMP-450 about expectations for week...
  2. Yes it is insignificant but it really was nothing to complete. Just look up the beliefs for each group and place it in the chart. The information was in the book somewhere and I also used goggle....

    What do you think ?

    Fairness has no bearing on the issue at hand. To pass and get your authorization to take the NCLEX you have to follow their rules. Is it right? They should have informed the students of the change...
  4. I think that it can be done but life wont be the same and you need to determine if it will negatively affect your home life. I work 5 days a week with some weekend on call time and it is tough for me...
  5. I am the same way. I want to write a paper that someone wants to read and provides both topic information and a little background information. this isn't want they want. They want to hear specific...
  6. I learned to be very direct and literal. Reference each point in the rubric and do not be fluffy. I think each paragraph answered each point in order without long descriptions. I used the bible...

    AMP-450V starts on Monday, and then the capstone. Last day of my capstone is January 31, 2016. I can not wait, but that goes without
  8. Yes I believe they have totally revamped the class but it shouldn't matter much to you. All you will know is the class before you not what it was in the past. The problem I had was asking for help...

    Thanks, I was sitting here wondering what in the heck we could be discussing because the class isn't meant to specifically teach you anything. Just have to get it over with. AMP-450 opened today and...

    A question for all those that have finished the Capstone.... Are there weekly discussion posts? Getting excited to be done and am trying to plan. I talked with my supervisor and will only have to...

    Nope, did not take this class and glad I didn't have too. I have to take a extra leadership class (can't remember the name or number) that doesn't start till next week. One week
  13. Wait till the new and improved Spirituality class..... Just a hint, no matter your 'beliefs' just regurgitate what they want to hear and be done with
  14. I agree with PrismRN about selecting an instructor. Just follow the rubric and do the work and get out. Be aware of the little issues each instructor has. One tip I have that I shared on the other...
  15. I hated this!!!!!! Well this is a little different. I hated the ones that wouldn't even acknowledge my post and add to it. Their post was so off the wall and had nothing to do with what I posted...
  16. Congratulations!!! Which MSN program are you looking

    Am I Too Old to Start School?

    I went back to school at this same age and have been an RN for almost 1.5 years. I will earn my BSN in mid January at the age of 46. When I started school I had no prior useful credits and had to...

    I thought everyone knew. This is about the best hint I can give then. I am sorry you didn't take advantage of this. I guess this is great advice for anyone early or just starting the program. When...

    Could it be? I actually have a reasonable CLC project? It is Sunday and we have a week until the assignment is due and all parts are submitted except for one. And they look pretty good. Maybe not...

    I learned early that you can use all the books provided to you from the program. On the opening PageBurst page there is a search box in the right hand corner (upper). Place keywords or phrase here...
  22. My first time....... Oh heck that was really bad. We were allowed to start IV's on our classmates with supervision from the instructors. I was paired with a guy that was, well he was quite fluffy....

    So I've been reading

    Just looked on Amazon and the latest edition of Saunders Comprehensive Review is 32.00 new. You cant beat that price. I used the 5th edition while in school and it was really helpful. Know the test...
  24. I don't think that all instructors are particular about APA violations. I had the same thing happen to me on one of the first CLC projects and it took me 2-3 hours to fix them all. It really isn't...

    So has anyone noticed that the color group assignments ever change after the first couple days of class. The three people I was worried about have been changed. Only one of them is still in my...
