  1. Grand Canyon University RN to BSN Reviews

    Solitaire.G replied to Flames9_RN's topic in School, College Programs

    Congrats, Flames - I just finished too! Great to know I have a month off before starting at Gonzaga. I got accepted into their PMHNP as of last week, so I'm excited :) Also happy to have a month off...

  2. Grand Canyon University RN to BSN Reviews

    Solitaire.G replied to Flames9_RN's topic in School, College Programs

    I do wonder the same. Day after day I see people copy/pasting straight from sources, etc etc - then again, each DQ is worth like 5 freakin points, so the grand total is 50 points, or .5 of a percent!...

  3. Grand Canyon University RN to BSN Reviews

    Solitaire.G replied to Flames9_RN's topic in School, College Programs

    I figure some of you won't believe this, but in that class that I turned in two students for blatant plagiarism, I then had to turn in the professor as well - I was going to wait until I finished the...

  4. Grand Canyon University RN to BSN Reviews

    Solitaire.G replied to Flames9_RN's topic in School, College Programs

    Actually, that was a fun - and solo,thank goodness - PP presentation. I did mine on "Rainman" but on Tom Cruise's character, Raymond, and his Narcissistic Personality Disorder, his lack of empathy,...

  5. Grand Canyon University RN to BSN Reviews

    Solitaire.G replied to Flames9_RN's topic in School, College Programs

    Last day of Intro to Research. I am absolutely livid at the moment! I had noticed that week #5, under grading, didn't add up to 1000 points - had a whole 150 pts missing. So when people started asking...

  6. People really need to stop coming into nursing

    Solitaire.G replied to DUDERNGUY's topic in General Nursing

    Same here as well. I was working as an orderly, saw what the RNs were doing, and said, "I can do that too," and double my income (from $6 an hour to $12 - gee, thanks Florida RN pay!). Funny now, I...

  7. People really need to stop coming into nursing

    Solitaire.G replied to DUDERNGUY's topic in General Nursing

    Yep, I've had several nurse managers who fit that description. Their ignorance of their incompetence is laughable, and dangerous. It can border on

  8. Grand Canyon University RN to BSN Reviews

    Solitaire.G replied to Flames9_RN's topic in School, College Programs

    Like asking an eagle if he cares what the pigs think . . . . If I make a mistake, which certainly I am quite capable of, I am happy to own it. tokmom: the professor has obviously talked to this...

  9. People really need to stop coming into nursing

    Solitaire.G replied to DUDERNGUY's topic in General Nursing

    As an orderly who was paid $3-4 an hour the entire time I was in nursing school, I now consider that to be volunteer work Thankfully, the hospital had tuition assistance so at least most of my...

  10. Grand Canyon University RN to BSN Reviews

    Solitaire.G replied to Flames9_RN's topic in School, College Programs

    I'm saying that I've caught people copying and pasting straight from an article, without quoting it, without citing it, as if they wrote it themselves - and citing a completely different article. It...

  11. Grand Canyon University RN to BSN Reviews

    Solitaire.G replied to Flames9_RN's topic in School, College Programs

    In my first week of Intro to Research. Four more classes after that. One thing that is driving me 'round the bend is all the plagiarism that I see - every week, every class, since I started last year....

  12. People really need to stop coming into nursing

    Solitaire.G replied to DUDERNGUY's topic in General Nursing

    Glad I'm in Northern California. 99% of OP doesn't apply. Get your nursing unions, other

  13. Grand Canyon University RN to BSN Reviews

    Solitaire.G replied to Flames9_RN's topic in School, College Programs

    Coming up on the last week of Stats. Gotta say, based upon the forum posts, I'm glad there's no CLC for this. I do feel empathy for my cohorts that just aren't getting it, but surprisingly more people...

  14. Grand Canyon RN-BSN

    Solitaire.G replied to tokmom's topic in Online Distance Learning

    It's so easy to highlight passages nowadays, in Word, if highlighting stuff is really necessary. I have been printing out stuff that I'll want to actually study in the future, like the adult physical...

  15. Grand Canyon RN-BSN

    Solitaire.G replied to tokmom's topic in Online Distance Learning

    This is the case for me here in NorCal. I've got 20 years as a psych RN - but many of the decent places to work around here are requiring BSNs now (Stanford, Kaiser, e.g.). I do start with Kaiser...

  16. Grand Canyon University RN to BSN Reviews

    Solitaire.G replied to Flames9_RN's topic in School, College Programs

    I guess I'm one of those odd people that enjoys writing papers and doing research. I do get annoyed with many of these assignments, as they often seem boring and tedious, but I always find a way to...

  17. What is your take home pay as Nurse Practitioner?

    Solitaire.G replied to hik9258's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Good news for me. I'm planning PMHNP after I get this BSN out of the way. I've got 20 years in now as a psych RN. Presently in California but have plans to relocate. I'll be hoping to start networking...

  18. What is your take home pay as Nurse Practitioner?

    Solitaire.G replied to hik9258's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I'm definitely gonna have to get out of Cali once I'm a FMHNP from the looks of it. I already make more as an ASN degree'd RN here in the East Bay area. I do have plans

  19. To Zenman - please reply!

    Solitaire.G replied to andy25's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Zenman, yes I lived there as a kid for about three years - Oahu. Then back in 2012 I worked on Oahu briefly, at Kahi Mohala in Ewa Beach. Four months there. I lived up in Makakilo during that

    Hi from Todd, I'm in my second course now at GCU :) NSG-429V. I started in the April 14th class. I'm enjoying it so far. Writing papers is not difficult for me, in fact I enjoy it once I get a thesis...
