    lol It's definitely not the most up to date facility, no. However, that shouldn't be a hindrance to the most important part, your education. They're getting better as far as getting more hands on...

    Lutheran School of Nursing

    Hmm, that's a good question. You should call up the front desk, and talk to Sam. If he doesn't know, you can asked to be transferred to Susan, as I'm sure she would know. I didn't transfer any...

    Lutheran School of Nursing

    Hmm, I do not remember? I think I was exempt because I took the ACT. It did take me a minute to get into the program, though, I got lucky because someone backed out. It gets filled pretty
  4. I haven't contacted them, no. But I gladly will. Edit: And cannot, because the post was flagged for removal. Who knows, maybe it was all some elaborate ploy, a sociological experiment in which any...
  5. A quick question: Did anyone here have a thought aside of reporting them, or hoping that they would get reported? Did anyone think about contacting the person, and offering advice? Maybe explain to...
  6. I'm sorry, you're all right, I was in error. I completely agree with all of you. This person should be thrown out of school, immediately. It is my greatest hope that their license is revoked, and...
  7. You're mistaking my point. I can't seem to explain myself well enough here. If I saw someone doing something on the floor that was unsafe for the patient, or anyone, I would 100% step in, and first...
  8. I'm sorry, guys. Please don't misunderstand my point of view here. I do not condone cheating. I do believe that this person should be accountable for their actions. Do not mistake my intent, please, I...
  9. Fair enough. I don't disagree with that we are held by higher standards. Not in the least. Nor do I disagree that this person shouldn't be held accountable for their actions. I think many people...
  10. Writing papers is the whole point in the level care? By that logic, a great writer equals a great nurse. Because this person is cheating on writing papers, they'll somehow cause me harm if they were...

    Heh, don't make a decision based off of emotions alone. Logically look at your situation, and what you want out of your education. There are some really great instructors, and then there are some...
  12. Okay, again, I never said that I condone her actions. Clearly we're going to have to agree to disagree. I see many venomous responses to her actions, and I truly think that y'all believe them to be...
  13. Good questions. 1.) Of course this doesn't show good moral character. 2.) I cannot say for sure if taking shortcuts in writing papers equates to taking shortcuts with care. 3.) Should they? Likely...

    The toughest clinical yet!!

    Clinical was my absolute favorite time during school! Even more so when I was on a Med-Surg, or Critical Care floor. Once I got familiar with my teacher, and they of me, I loved being out on my own,...
  15. That's what I was thinking. From my point of view, the only thing any of us should care about is the patients that this person may take care of. Anything otherwise is just a waste of energy. Why give...
  16. Honestly, I couldn't care less (sorry). If they want to cheat their way through their program, so be it. As long as it doesn't affect the level care given to their patients, it's not really any of my...

    It's very competitive, yes. However, there are jobs out there. Everyone that has taken the NCLEX thus far (that I know of) has a job already. Our sister hospital is St. Alexius, and they always hire...

    The program isn't like most schools. You don't actually get to choose what you're going to take. There are no extra classes aside of the ones needed for your degree. If you're looking to continue on...

    What is your grading scale?

    I wish 90 = A, my GPA would be

    In short, yes, it is possible to complete the program with children. You should check out some of the other Lutheran threads for a lot of information about the school, etc. I just graduated from the...

    What is your grading scale?

    My school was the same, except we had no A+'s. That, and, 75-77 was a C-. No rounding

    How was your peds class (theory portion)?

    In our school, it was two classes; Advanced Med-Surg, and Psych. The former was hard because the teachers were new, and they made their own questions a lot of the time (bad bad bad). The former was...

    Shout Out to all the December/Fall 2013 Grads!

    Our last class is a 4-week class called, Student to Professional. Essentially, it's an exit course. We're required to turn in 200 questions, weekly, with a 75% or better. I turned in 1,700 Those...

    How was your peds class (theory portion)?

    Mine was ridiculously easy. Which is odd, because the rest of the program was unnaturally hard, In fact, it was the only class that I got an A in. When I see people post their grade on the site, it...
