This summer I am taking Ob and Peds, both with clinicals that will be 12 hours a week for each class. One class is 6 hours and the other is 4. This is considered a full time load of 9 credit hours.
In the fall, I am taking Community with clinical (10 hours/week), Leadership, and Practicum with clinical (300+ hours total). This is the "lightest" semester of my program with "only" 16 credits.
Come on December!
I'm off for the summer (only part time students can take summer courses and I'm full time) so in the fall I'm taking medsurg 2 (lecture, lab and clinical) for the first 10 weeks, leadership lecture for the whole semester and preceptorship for the last 5 weeks of the semester then I'm done!! I can't wait :)
I'm taking Med Surg 2 (critical care) and clinical. Psych nursing and clinical and Pallative care. I'm going into 3rd semester. It seems like just yesterday I was tearing into the acceptance packet!
I feel the same way!! On 10/31/12 I accepted my spot in my program and I am currently 9 months away from pinning! It's a wonderful feeling :)
Med-Surg, Psych, and pathophysiology. Our lectures are Monday and Wednesday and then we have clinicals on Tuesday and Thursday.
I'm pretty excited! Our clinicals are pretty cool. For med-surg we are at a teaching hospital that services the poorer population, so we will have a lot to do. For Psych we will primarily be at a children's psych ward. We also have a rotation at a prison in which we get to work with inmates that are mentally unfit for trial. Too exciting!
Good day:
The RN program I'm entering starts mid August. In the summer, I'll be taking Effective Speaking, Healthcare Law and Ethics, and Statistics for a total of 10 credits. I'm also trying to get into a clinical dosage calculations class this summer; but, I will not know if I can get in until sometime in May.
Thank you.

For those of you who aren't graduating, what classes are you taking next term? And what does your schedule look like?
I am taking Psych and Community which amount to eight credit hours total. First half of the term is Psych (Friday lecture 900-1230). Second half is community with a Monday lecture 900-1230. Not sure about about clinical times yet!
