Take notes during lecture! That's the biggest thing in our program, if it's mentioned it's testable. Even if they don't go into detail, if they mention it, look it up and know it. Nursing school is also about knowing how to apply the material not jus...

I really enjoyed my psych clinical but honestly so far I am loving med surg. I didn't go into nursing school with my mind set on anything really. My mom worked telemetry/med surg and she raves about it. So far I've had clinical for geriatrics, mental...

Started pre reqs at 18 and my actual program at 24!

I would say it won't hurt to study and have a few things in mind. just make sure that you are using reliable sources to study. Go back over your A&P, that will help. I would honestly say relax a little before the program starts and you don't get ...

I'm beginning my ADN program in January! It's getting so close I can taste it. My scrubs are supposed to arrive Friday and it just seems so real finally. Until now it felt like a far off dream. I know I should relax until the program starts but I am ...

This is exciting too! I have all of my prerequisites finished for a BSN degree but was accepted into an ADN program so I can hopefully easily bridge to my baccalaureate after I finish and pass my NCLEX

Thank you!

Thank you! I transferred into my program with 85 credits so the only thing I have to take my first semester is Geriatrics and Fundamentals of nursing. My scrubs came in yesterday

Everything happens for a reason! I didn't get into the school I was trying for a few years back and after changing majors I reapplied to a different schools nursing program and got in! Don't give up on your dreams and you will get there.

I start my ADN this spring! I have my schedule except for clinicals. I'm taking Foundations and Geriatrics this semester. I am so excited! I'm ordering my scrubs next week, all white. They said they supply a cheap stethoscope but I really want a Litt...

I have been accepted into an ADN program!! I start in January so I'm trying to gather all of my vaccination records and such. I went today and recieved a PPD from the clinic and they said they would give me my results after they checked in 48 hours. ...

I start in January and will graduate December of 2017!!
