I will be graduating from an ADN program this May!!! I am looking into doing either a RN-BSN or RN-MSN program. What are the opinions on each? What are the best and/or cheapest programs. I will be working after I get my license and starting a family....

Does everyone usually study for the HESI exit exam or do the colleges want you to take it to see how you do?

I have not looked into Frontier. I was looking into both Oklahoma-Wesleyan and Indiana-Wesleyan. I'm looking for an online school that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. I'm interested in teaching in the future (I think). I'm looking for a reputable inst...

I hope it helped! I am going into Med/Surg III Let meek now if I can help you!

First semester nursing school was based around concepts that are clearly outlined in the book and it is very easy to breeze through and not really "study" the concepts. Med/Surg is completely Different, its more an application of concepts, where the...

Anyone work in TN as a new grad? I'll be graduating (fingers crossed) in May. I'm near the Nashville area!

Has anyone taken the PAX recently? How was it? Do you have any tips? I take mine in about 10 days and I'm super nervous!

I applied to Hopkinsville Community College for the fall 2014. I got the grade on the PAX but the admissions office said that there were a few ties on admittance to the nursing program. I was put on the wait list. They have an admission conference on...

I'm debating on what kind of backpack/carry bag to get for my first semester. I know a lot of people say to get rolling ones (they aren't my favorite) because of all the books that we have. What is everyone getting or what does everyone have :)?

I took the CNA class! It wasn't too hard it's just a lot of material in a short time frame! Just know you skills and soak up any information from the clinicals! I was so worried about the state exam and I wound up getting a 90 on it! Just take your t...

I got an 86% on the PAX which is a 124 percentile. I am on the waiting list for my nursing school and should know in a month or so if I get pulled off of the list and will be accepted :/ I hate waiting!

I'm going to do the ADN program and bridge over to either a BSN or MSN. It may take a little longer but the ADN program is a little easier to get into at the local colleges and also there are more clinical hours with the ADN and at least here, they t...

I would try to find a job in a nursing home or a care facility. Generally, they are more understanding of nursing students and their schedules. Hospitals tend to hire people that could work full time (12 hours) with open availability. Since you will ...

Me too Cortney!

I totally understand!! I applied to Hopkinsville Community College and I am on the wait list. It's horrible! They have an admission conference on July 9th and from there, if people don't show up they decide if they pull from the wait list! This is k...

I've only taken a few online. If you are motivated and can learn without a teacher present go for it. I'm more of a visual learner and I don't do well on the computer so I took most of my pre-reqs in the classroom! To each his own!

I applied to Hopkinsville Community College. I was put on the wait list so I have to wait anywhere from July 9th to August 9th to find out if I am called off the list and will be accepted

I have a littmann just the basic one it's great! I think it's the Classic II

The school picks the clinical sites and you have to go when they say you need to attend. They are only for a portion of school. I bought Nike shoes for clinicals and I love them!

I would do the BSN. Even though it is more expensive you can pay it off easily once you get a job as an RN!

It still won't let me respond..message me your name and I'll look you up on facebook or something

I can't reply to your message!

I hope to do well. I'm so nervous I haven't been doing well on the practice tests!

I take it on May13th. I did the science content review and didn't do so well but I studied every page of the science!

When you all studuied did you do well on the practice tests? Is it the same format :/
