  1. Your best bet is contacting the Florida BON as no one here can know for certain. Also, many board websites have it clearly stated on the application instructions what types of charges will...
  2. Grievance With College & Tactfulness...

    How many student were in your class for 6-10 to be considered a lot of them failing. In the majority of nursing school, it is completely normal for a decent amount of students to fail out. Some of the...
  3. Didn't make it.

    I don't mean this to be harsh, but you need to focus on yourself and stop getting upset with those who got in because of your own assumptions that they are not as deserving. Nursing schools can't just...
  4. Dance considered humanties?

    One thing to also consider is if it is an acceptable humanities course for the universities you may consider applying to down the road. There are quite a few off the wall courses that qualify as a...
  5. Can my school change prerequisite requirements?

    You are prenursing. The school has the right to make any pre req changes up until the point of you entering the core nursing program. At which point they can still change curriculum and such, as long...
  6. med surg final

    For the math it is 13. The questions is asking how many full days of medication. You will not have enough for the full 14th day so it is not counted. Also, when pouring a liquid med there will be some...
  7. ***lvn what was your staring pay as a lvn in arizona***

    Yes. Phoenix
  8. ***lvn what was your staring pay as a lvn in arizona***

    I am not an LPN, but rather a CNA until I pass NCLEX. Anyway, the two places I have worked as a CNA have very different pay, so it will depend on where you get a job. The first place I worked was a...
  9. maricopa block 1 books

    This is not true. Or at least not for all campuses. At SCC the regular student ID (the Artie Card) is green. The nursing students have to have a white "Student Nurse" ID badge or they cannot attend...
  10. Drug Question

    This I know. I guess what I was trying to explain is that nitro itself is not classified as a pain reliever is all. The pain that is relieved is indirect as the nitro doesn't work directly on pain...
  11. Drug Question

    Just a side note (not to be snarky). But, nitro does not directly have anything to do with pain. Indirectly in can but that is not its primary use. Nitro is a vasodilator. Open up the vessels (and in...
  12. help! please! GRIEVANCE LETTER/APPEALS PROCESS

    There were people in my final nursing course who failed by 0.01. Literally. The program requires a 76% pro tired score before assignments are added in and there is not rounding. A handful of people...
  13. CLEP credits-too much?

    If you feel like you would be underprepared for micro by clapping then you have answered yourself. The oath to nursing is not short. Don't try to speed things up by reducing your learning. If it was...
  14. Pay Difference Between Full Time and PRN?

    She probably negotiated a higher pay rate. Coming in at the same time with the same experience is only half of the
  15. i need help

    The sciences are the foundation of nursing education. If you cant fully understand A&P and micro, you will likely not do well in a nursing program. Sometimes dreams just dont come true. I can...
  16. One last class needed, can it be done?

    Also take into account that you have to be on the wait list in order to apply to CEP. Check with an adviser as I could be wrong on this, but you are not technically on the wait list until you have a...
  17. maricopa block 1 books

    The med/surg book is a definite must for block 2 and up. Most of the assigned reading comes from that book. The lippincott doesnt get much assigned reading, but I personally liked it for careplans. It...
  18. maricopa block 1 books

    Check craigslist and eBay. Final block students often sell the book packages for really cheap right around now. You won't know which of the books you like best until you start. There will be assigned...
  19. Male CNA caring for females

    It is highly unlikely you will find ANY place of employment that will allow you to care for males only. Maybe home care where you take patient assignments and go to their house directly. But I can't...
  20. Most likely no. They will not overlook it. Just because weed is "legal" in California doesn't mean an employer has to overlook it's use. Same as narcotics and benzos and such. If there is an incident...
  21. What is a good attrition rate for nursing school.

    I think it also depends on the competitiveness of the program. I have noticed that incredibly competitive schools with smaller classes, tend to have lower attrition rates because they have stricter...
  22. The BON background check will see EVERYTHING. There are rare accessions when things don't show up for some people, but that's not the norm. As for if you need to tell them, if there is a question...
  23. Almost Done?? Who else?

    Hey ladies and gents, I am so excited and just full of anxiety at the same time. I just took and passed my simulation final practicum. Tomorrow is my written final for Block 4. After that, I will...
  24. I failed the HESI?

    Many schools use a HESI developed for their specific program. The questions are mixed up, but they are mostly the same for everyone in your class. You our are in fundamentals. It is ok not to pass...
  25. Almost Done?? Who else?

    Today was a fantastic day. Passed my final and block 4. AND found out I got L&D for my preceptorship! I'm soooooooo
