I do so many mistakes on my practice classes. I try to remain calm, but I'm so anxious going into class. I know the procedures but sometimes I just feel clumsy and start stressing. Do any of you went or are going through this? Any advice? submitted by /u/PorofessorLulux [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I just can’t seem to feel at ease- I’m worrying about next semester and I always have flash backs to my placements in the RPN program that make me anxious. I don’t have a social life or a car - I spend my days I’m at home cleaning or watching shows. Is this what my life has come too? Anyone else on the same boat? I’m thinking of doing applying to be an extern but not sure if it’s worth it per se. submitted by /u/willowdaze [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Am a male nursing student wanting to become L and D nurse into mid wife/husband. It is the only thing I’ve wanted to do for years. Anyone have any tips to create an edge or pointers on how to stand out, since I know everyone and their mother wants to be in L and D. I know it’s a far stretch to start out as L and D, but don’t want to accept job on another floor when I graduate, would like to start as L and D. Or is that asking to much ? submitted by /u/Top-Mongoose-49 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

In my class for clinical rotations, the syllabus states we need to get a C (70%) or greater to be able to meet the course outcomes and advance to the next level. Now the head of the course is telling me that we need to have a B (80%) or greater to advance to the next level. Can they just change this at a whim? The written syllabus has not changed, only what I'm being told by the course head. It wouldn't be a problem except that I had an issue recently of missing a online simulation that was not under the regular list of simulations, and they want to deduct a large amount from my grade. To my ..read more

I’ve been accepted into an ABSN program that’s set to end Dec 2025 and an Associate degree nursing program that’s also set to end Dec 2025. The ABSN is at a private college, 2 hours away, and it’s a hybrid schedule, it’s almost $52K for the program. The associate degree is about $20K but not in the best area, however it’s closer to me. I already have a bachelors degree and would prefer to get my BSN and be done with it. However, if I did an accelerated RN to BSN program after I’m done with my associates, I feel like it shouldn’t take too long anyways. When applying to jobs when you graduate ..read more

I’m a running start student, currently a senior. I applied to many schools and got into the nursing BSN programs, but for a few I misunderstood application dates and requirements to qualify as a “transfer” and not a “first year.” These colleges are instate and would be more affordable than the out of state colleges I got into the 2-year programs for. I don’t want to redo all my pre-nursing requisites and do an additional two years of school, but it looks like I may not have a choice. I’m thinking of committing to a school, and this fall applying again to bsn programs to hopefully get in next ..read more

Hoping for some unbiased advice. I got accepted to a nursing school that offers a 12 month track, as well as a slightly less intense 16 month track and I am unsure on which track I should choose (and how I should come to that conclusion). The differences between the 2 tracks are minimal. The first semester in the 12 month track has 1 additional class (genetics) - this is the only difference in the first semester 12 month. The second semester of the 12 month has 1 additional clinical and 1 additional writing intensive class - again, only difference. The biggest difference between the 2 is duri ..read more
