I was told per the academic advisor that I'd have to wait two years to start the bridge program when I had applied April 24th and found out a week later that I was placed in Fall 2018 cohort í ½í¸Š. I spoke with someone in the nursing department and was told usually traditional students wait that long not bridge students. I wish you the best of luck.

Thank you so much :)

I'm inquiring information about the PNs scope of practice in Michigan. I'm nurse here in Ohio and our state has VERY restrictive laws in nursing and they are stated very clearly on our BON website. However, I've recently applied for an endorsement to practice in Michigan and I was wondering if there are any LPNs who practice there could share their scopes practices and differences between the RNs. I looked around on MI BON and it states that there isn't one.

I'm writing this blog because I wanted to share my NCLEX experience with you all. So I recently graduated from an LPN program located here in Dayton, OH, on December 14th. I received my ATT number that following week and scheduled to take my test Tuesday, December 27th in Lansing, MI because there were no seats available throughout Ohio. Anyway, when I got there I was nervous as heck. I had 157 question which consisted of 40+ SATA, patient teaching, two math questions, OB, PEDS, one psych question, delegation, and 4 or 5 click and drag questions. I was completely numb after finishing the test, it was a bit difficult in the beginning for me because I kept reading into the questions (PLEASE DO NOT DO THAT ON NCLEX answer only what the question is asking you) and all of the ridiculously amount of SATA questions. Anyway, I found out that I passed today (December 29th) while I was at work on break and almost cried because I seriously thought I had failed. However, I'd like to share with you how I prepared for this exam. In our program we used ATI (which I found harder than NCLEX), took Mark Klimek, I personally purchased an app called NCLEX mastery, and I also purchased the NCSBN review, but I only answered the questions because I didn't have time to read the content and personally I think this was most beneficial resource out of all them because the style of questions are the same on NCLEX. But that was pretty much how I studied and I wish you all the best of luck. :)

I'll just get straight to the point, I am over nursing school! I am in my last semester and I am completely tired. I have put a lot of time and dedication into my nursing program received excellent grades, done exceptionally well in clinical's due to my experience as an aide, but sometimes I feel like I am going to be a stupid nurse. We're currently doing our ATI Capstone on top of the other coursework and I feel overloaded and unprepared. Am I the only one who feels this way? I can't talk to anyone in my family about my problems because they do not understand. It has been said that there is light at the end of the tunnel, but gosh I am overwhelmed.
