    Permanently Kicked out of Practicum

    That's not a thing. The agreements the schools have with the hospitals give them the right to decide who stays and who

  4. If you don't think you'll use your books after school (there's tons of resources through the place you are working usually), Amazon rentals is a great deal for books. I usually get ebooks, but the...
  5. Had a friend who was wicked smart and aced everything in her pre-reqs, was in nursing classes a couple weeks and realized she had no desire to be there. She already had a degree in biology and ended...

    A school worth moving to

    The two big schools for ADN are Waukesha County Technical College and Milwaukee Area Technical College. They have the exact same curriculum, since it is mandated by the state. I'd recommend either...

    A school worth moving to

    There’s a couple of good ADN programs in SE Wisconsin, and ADN is all you need to get into a hospital around here (they will then pay for your BSN). The job market is very good here too, and there...

    failed a&p twice ?

    It's pretty common that you can't take a course more than twice. Good news is there's plenty of other schools around. You could also work as a CNA or something in the meantime and start getting some...

    Is Nursing Becoming Over-Saturated?

    It depends where you live. Here in Wisconsin I’ve got one semester left to get my ADN and I’ve already been hired on at one of the major hospitals as a nurse extern (and it was my first choice)....
  12. Where do you live? You could always start over with in Associates program somewhere that you can work as an RN easily with just in ADN. You don’t have to tell anyone that you’ve gone anywhere...

    Nurse Residency Programs?

    In my area most of the hospitals have extern programs where you work one shift per week starting in your last semester of school or in your last year of school. Many of them get hired onto those...

    Castle Branch?

    One of the major schools around here uses it. At our school people who went to the VA I think still had to go get fingerprinted I believe so that may be why they just have everyone do it at the other...

    What should I do?

    Good teacher is subjective. My teacher for both I and II (whom I thought was fantastic) many people hated because he was “too hard” (I.e., they couldn’t pass his class). Fast forward to level...

    Stethoscope

    The classic is fine for most people although I don’t love it. The cardiology iv is a very nice upgrade. Having said that you might not appreciate it as much if you don’t use the classic for a

    Is it worth it?

    For crying out loud have you ever used the internet before? You could start a thread about puppies and 9/10 people would tell you how awful they are because of a bad experience they had. People who...

    By this point in life, it’s important to understand not all rumors you hear are completely true, if at all. Nursing school is full of people who had terrible unjust things happen to them -...
  25. Look up some YouTube videos about a program called Anki. A lot of med students use it. I started using it third semester and retained way more than second semester, and had an easier time the entire...
