    Failed AP + Lab

    Depends on the school & time frame you took them in. I can't really give you advice other than maybe see if a nursing school advisor can clear it up for you. Good

    How to remediate more efficiently

    Oh okay, I'm just starting the UWorld questions myself, so don't have much advice. I just kinda review the content I'm weak in in the Saunders book, but that advice is the blind leading the blind at...

    Really need help

    If you are talking to just general academic advisors, then you need to be speaking to the nursing program advisor specifically. Often the run of the mill academic advisor does not know nursing...

    How to remediate more efficiently

    What are you
  5. You probably want to visit the career services office or an advisor on campus to give you guidance. Also, you use the title of nurse in your username so may want to modify it here on the nursing...
  6. You were not physically arrested correct? Not detained, but taken somewhere, been booked or had a photo

    Need advice

    Okay. I'm not sure if the state boards even get into student nurse issues...like that anyway. But figured if you were referring to the state board then the school in turn allowing them back would...

    White Nursing Student Shoes

    I just bought some all white Skechers. Lasted me through all of nursing

    Need advice

    When you say the board decided to allow them to come back, do you mean a school board or the actual state

    Nurse Accused of Taking Naked Photos of Nursing Home Patients

    She's earned time away, stripping of license & I'd even argue for the title of

    Secretly breaking contract

    The problem is we are seeing it from another point of view and trying to share & perhaps make YOU see things from that view as well. Also indirectly telling us on this forum (not blog) that we...

    Secretly breaking contract

    She's making plans to reimburse them, as long as she does, I see no issue, my humble opinion. Ultimately it's her in the hot seat when she graduates. I also guarantee the way nursing schools are...
  13. Well, my only thoughts to you are of my experience. I started nursing school about 15 years ago, had a bad experience outside of that, and switched majors and careers. Like you I couldn't get...

    When to change name (marriage)?

    It's a personal choice really. The only con in my opinion is just the process of name change, getting a new SSN card, updating your DL, bank accounts...just everything legally in your name. That was...

    How many care plans do you do?

    First semester we had to do 2 care plans total, then after that, we did anywhere from 4 to 8 each semester. To only do one a semester is very surprising to

    Nursing school Clinicals

    This is interesting. I've never actually heard of nurses going back to complain about a student to a clinical instructor, so I always imagined that if it happened there must be 1) something the...

    Paramedic looking for a career change...

    If you don't want to be a nurse, don't. You're 25, single and only have to worry about supporting yourself. Now is the time to do whatever it is you're going to do. It doesn't seem just that easy...

    How many people made it to the end of the program?

    There are 32 of us, we've lost

    I need a nursing advisor <crossroads>

    I second the ADN route at a local community college. You can get your LPN by all means nothing wrong with that route either. Apply to LPN & RN programs & wherever you can get in first that...

    Deaf and HoH Pre-Nursing Students

    It would probably benefit you to make an appointment to speak with a school nursing advisor, faculty or a nursing

    Have you restarted a nursing program?

    I understand this is not the same scenario, but, I've 3 nurse friends who all failed a semester. They all were devastated by this. However, all 3 have been nurses for several years now & one is...

    I feel so dumb, lonely and angry all the time

    Are your online classes related to your nursing program somehow? If not, I'd drop them. Nursing school is always harder when juggling kids and household. I understand that struggle all to well and...

    Anyone else?

    I did this. Started school fully intending to keep my full time 8-5 job with no flexibility. After the first month it became clear to me and my first exam score that it would not be realistic. My...

    Anxious, Confused, and needing help/advice

    You have a lot on your plate, I'd stop applying to positions so you can focus on the other things going on. Passing and resolving issues with preceptor are much more important than applying to jobs at...
  25. $150 to attend and $40 per ticket/person basically? Are they giving you a gold trophy or a state dinner? What a rip off. That's what people pay to feed guests at a wedding ceremony...and even that...
