Our files are complete and we will also be in the same class, the admissions lady was nice enough to do that for us. She mentioned orientation and the physical will be around June and July. anyone started to get their uniforms yet?? Can’t wait for us all to start school!!

You have five exams per class per trimester. One midterm one Final. (Semester one the final was one exam with 200 questions that covered the entire semesters work) Each exam is 50 questions multiple choice even the math but you receive a school issues calculator and scrap paper.
You will also have a clinical midterm and a clinical final exam
Now that we are online the tests are administered on an online platform and you have to keep your webcam on for the duration of the exam to deter cheaters.

Passing is 70 for all exams as well as for the classes. If you fail a class you're out of the program. The math is medication math, infusion time, drop factor, reconstitution. But the math teacher is great and she eases you into it

The online learning has definitely been an adjustment as nothing was ever put in place to make this program online before us but we're rolling with the punches. Exams are done on video camera.Clinicals are done with patient simulations which are pretty challenging but I do miss the real life experience.
Time management is EVERYTHING in this program. This week we have 3 exams and in two weeks we will have midterms which will be 4 exams. Do not forget your passpoint assignments as they can either make or break you.
