  1. MORPHINE OR OXYGEN?

    malaz replied to WEST1014, RN,BSN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    UGH. I know this is an old thread but I'm losing it over here. Just found a Kaplan ? that says morphine is first (I picked O2 and got it wrong). But a LaCharity question said O2 was first. And someone...

  2. ordered response

    malaz replied to cml_413's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    ABG_LING_68, I'm reviving this super old thread because I have the same frustration with Kaplan drag and drops. Were they similarly arbitrary on the NCLEX, or did they stick to prioritizing /...

  3. Scores higher on UWorld than Kaplan. Should I drop one?

    malaz replied to flourish03's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Good for you! I wish I could nail down a strategy change that would improve my scores, but according to Kaplan I'm more likely to change answers from incorrect to correct so I know that's not my...

  6. Pharm Advice (Using UWorld, Kaplan)

    malaz posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Hi all, I plan to take the NCLEX in about a month and I am really struggling with pharm. I have read other threads on this topic, and advice ranges from "Don't bother, there are too many drugs, just...

  7. Scores higher on UWorld than Kaplan. Should I drop one?

    malaz replied to flourish03's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm in the same boat! To me, UWorld's questions are much more clearly written, even though they require the same level of knowledge and critical thinking. My UWorld scores are pretty good, my Kaplan...

  8. Pharm Advice (Using UWorld, Kaplan)

    malaz replied to malaz's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    That's great to know- and I'm glad I'm not the only person who thinks Kaplan needs a copy editor. I am almost completely done with the UWorld Qbank and I'll be sure to go through all the pharm...

  9. Pharm Advice (Using UWorld, Kaplan)

    malaz replied to malaz's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I would have LOVED to have a general pharm course early in the program. We did have a separate med calc and principles of medication admin pre-req and pharm integrated into each course, but I could...

  10. Pharm Advice (Using UWorld, Kaplan)

    malaz replied to malaz's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Please no judgmental comments? I attended the program that worked with my family / financial / work obligations (and turned down a spot in a competitive accelerated BSN program in order to do so). I'm...

  11. ABSN or ASN

    malaz replied to Ovalis's topic in New York Nursing

    That's a good question. I've heard mixed things about this. I will finish my ASN in May and will be starting an online BSN through a SUNY school. I only have to do 30 credits because of my prior BA +...

  12. ABSN or ASN

    malaz replied to Ovalis's topic in New York Nursing

    Hi there, I don't have the answer for you, but I'll share my experience. I also have a BA in another field, and am considering becoming an APN. I had a choice between SUNY Downstate (ABSN with very...

  13. Fastest BA/RN to BSN program?

    malaz replied to zrc2009's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I have mainly researched distance programs and programs in NYC offering NP and CNM, but I know of several MSN programs that accept ASN + BA. Frontier (with portfolio), NYU, Columbia, Pace, Duke, GW,...

  14. Fastest BA/RN to BSN program?

    malaz replied to zrc2009's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Every RN-BSN program I've looked at requires you to do 30 credits in residence regardless of prior education, and they are usually structured to take at least 2 semesters or one full calendar year. If...

    malaz replied to ryanalice's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Hi @ryanalice, I would love an update! I also have a BA and am about to start the clinical phase of an ASN program. I hope to become a CNM or FNP after I get my RN. How are your job and grad school...

  17. Fall 2010 nursing program @ BMCC

    malaz replied to bilis's topic in New York Nursing

    Hi, I know this is an old thread but I'm dying to know: how did things work out for those of you who had BAs and opted to get your ASN at BMCC? I am leaning toward going this route (nights and...

    malaz posted a topic in School, College Programs

    Hi everyone, I am finishing up my pre-reqs at BMCC and I would love some advice from current BMCC nursing students or recent graduates. I have seen a few threads on this topic but most are at least a...

  20. worried about dissection

    malaz replied to Fruit Sucker's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Personally, I am not really concerned about human cadavers- they consented, after all! I'm not squeamish, I just don't want to dissect or experiment on animals who were farmed and / or killed for that...

  21. worried about dissection

    malaz replied to Fruit Sucker's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for your reply! What kind of documentation did you bring? Did you go to BMCC, or do you know anyone who went there recently? A friend who took A&P there a year or two ago said they didn't...

  22. worried about dissection

    malaz replied to Fruit Sucker's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hey, veggienursenyc. I know this is an old thread, but I am wondering whether you ended up having to do the dissection. I'm registered for A&P I next semester and I'm also concerned about this....
