Hello everyone! I have a bit of a dilemma and I'm hoping that my nursing colleagues can give me their professional advice. I'm a recent graduate and last week, I was offered a position at on med-surg floor at Memorial, at the same time another hospital offered me a position in the ER. What is the best option to take? On one hand, I have a great hospital and on the other I have the position I think I want? What is your best advice for someone as myself...brand new to nursing!

That's exactly my point! My point is that 30 out of 52 students failed (so as you can see more Than half) failed one class.

I think we got that instructor from Hades! She literally said and I quote " I don't like to teach"

Yeah I doubt that people can pass literally three hard semesters on an "open enrollment lottery". Most would have been "weeded" out by the first to second semester. We really just had a very poorly managed semester. If every single test was quoted as highest 80 lowest 50's and average 70's, that means that there is gap between what students are learning and what is being taught or the test content. I just don't agree with the "lottery" possibility. In fact most failed with 74.2. We had an awesome instructor that should have been teaching us during the whole semester but didn't. Instead we had a new staff that I guess thought we needed entertainment, instead of teaching she would put on videos and had us discuss topics. I'm sorry but that's not teaching and that type of "professors" should not be hired. Now my two cents on the event that it was based on "lottery" well I'm sorry but that's completely unfair to those who do not qualify for such career. That's a waste of money and time and lacks credibility from any institution.

congratulations!!! Thanks for sharing your studying techniques!

To emergent, thats exactly what is going on. Our class had 3 instructors and one was a horrible instructor and we just failed to notify the program about how bad she was

sounds like my class. We all complained to each other about one of the professors but we never let the program know.

our class started with 150, then 50 on our fourth semester and now to the 5th and final only like 22 passed. But get this, all average tests scores were 71, what does that tell you?

Has anyone come across a large group of nursing students who failed one class (1/2 of the class)? If so can you share their story?
