rets tech

Published

Hi Ohio,

I was just accepted into the rets tech LPN program today, then of course, I will continue in the fast track and go into the RN program. I will be starting april 23rd, is anyone else beginning at the same time?

:balloons:

Specializes in geriatrics, currently med-surg.

I Have To Agree, I Am One From The Class That 16 Out Of 40 (whatever The Statistics) Failed. I Passed My Boards The First Time And I Feel It Was Because I Did Apply Myself Through Out The Program. Too Many People Did Slip Through The Cracks So To Speak. So If They Stopped That Maybe The Pass Rate Would Get Better!!!!

Well, I know they are still making changes because they are still in the beginning stages. I see positive changes for the classes behind me. They actually get some experience that weren't available to my class, but thats how things go. I believe that if they stop making excuses for those sliding through the cracks that things will be better for their reputation. All I know is that it's almost over and I need to pass boards so I scheduled my own NCLEX-RN review with Mark Klimek with half of my class. LOL!

just wondering, how can teachers (especially a and p) allow students to slide through. Honestly I am just curious. If the grades aren't there then the grades aren't there....right? Or do they give them extra credit or something?:angryfire Just wondering.

Well I wondered that same thing but I have watched a select few in my class pass when they should've failed. I only know this because they talk about how they made it and shouldn't have. Then there are others who were failed for less than half a point!!! Explain that. LOL! I just wonder what the REALLY did for extra credit?!

Isn't THAT the truth! ;) Oh well, I'm graduating in a few short weeks anyways! A good thing happening this week is the central line lab check-offs. I was starting to get kinda nervous about that!

LOL! Guess who? I'll give you a hint. Who in your class would most likely remember that an MSA plate is selective and differential for Staphylococcus spp. AND how so?
