    I understand now that you weren't literal about the intubation but seriously you cant actually think I was harmful suggesting if they are weak in science, to do some reading? What I've suggested, I've...
  2. Going to Georgetown, advice?

    Not to mention Morificeko, its ironic you agreed with the above poster finding me "humorous". I found it humorous that you gave false facts about the title "Doctor" being limited to the academic...
  3. Going to Georgetown, advice?

    Morificeko, you read my posts and your mind goes off on a tangent fabricating things that I never said. Yea I read about requirements tell me when I said that would help someone intubate something?...

    All Doctors of Nursing Practice are not only called Doctor in academic setting States that specifically prohibit DNP's from using the title "Doctor" with your patients (Arkansas, Connecticut, Maine,...
  7. BSN-DNS anesthesia

    Hi morificeko It looks like you think I said "C"s are okay. That is not what I said. I actually explained how I had a special program in high school where it was okay to have "C"s to get to level 2 of...
  8. Im currently studying for Micro for Excelsior. I already applied for the ADN program but I am still open to other possibilities. My mind is more at ease about the CPNE but occasionally I still would...

  11. I'm trying to find out how time consuming it was for most while doing 2 at a time over an 8 week period. For example approximately how many hours out of the day to you have to work on it? Is it self...
  12. I think its good to realize that you wont find a traditional school under 10k. No traditional school is as flexible as online programs like Excelsior.You will eventually finish even if it takes you a...

    My gpa didnt have to be competitive so I honestly dont know about that part(Did the first year of LPN my senior year in High school and second year post high school we were guaranteed a spot if we had...
  14. Going to Georgetown, advice?

    Like seriously, they were vague about what they were worried about. I don't see how suggesting they pick up a physiology book and do some reading here and there over the next several months is a bad....
  15. Going to Georgetown, advice?

    I honestly will continue to post whatever my heart desires. I am not you, what you did/didnt do doesnt apply to me, I had good intentions and didn't just make up things to say to them. Opinion,...

  17. overwhelmed...and I haven't even applied.

    I agree with Pixie.RN. Although I'm doing the program as a LPN, not a paramedic when I learned that paramedics can do the bridge program I thought that was amazing. From what Ive read there are a lot...
  18. now what

    If you want to take the tests sooner why not do credit by exsm rather than the course? You are doing courses not credit by exam correct? The courses are like 1300 and the credit by exam method, you...
  19. Excelsior LPN to RN. looking for opinions.

    Tons have completed within two years. In fact I think 2 years is a long time. Search older threads using keywords like "excelsior lpn-rn". Ive learned a lot and most likely will go through Excelsior....
  20. now what

    You shouldn't study from one resource alone especially if that resource is not the recommended material. Searching old threads to find out what others used and feedback after taking the test is a...
  21. Why do you feel you will never make it? I think anyone who truly wants to make it will at least manage to get through the basics: bsn, icu exp.. then it is a matter of applying. If you are speaking of...
  22. How did you become a Critical Care Nurse?

  24. Going to Georgetown, advice?

    I actually didn't say you said I gave bad advice. I was explaining your misinterpretation of me saying "spend time with friends and family" is bad advice. You mentioned you disagreed with a statement...
  25. Going to Georgetown, advice?

    Morificeko I didn't say it was bad advice. It is to me one of the best things to keep in mind. Read again. I meant that they said all of that just to give obvious advice. It is a great thing to do,...
