NCLEX [2007-11-21]
Yes doing ME/MT made nursing school a breeze for me.
If you are in nursing school, what is your school's NCLEX pass rate? [2006-09-09]
A&P [2008-07-15]
Everyone gets something different on the NCLEX. You can probably count on questions of delegation of duties being on there. Some people gets lots of pharmacology and some get none. You will have to take A&P in nursing school, and it is quite the class! You will have to understand how the body works at the level of an RN for purposes of school and eventually working, not just the NCLEX.
However, I doubt there are any questions solely about A&P. However, you may encounter questions about how pain medication works, for example, and that requires an understanding of not only what the medication does but the A&P of different pain mechanisms.
Do NOT let that website scare you from nursing!
Anatomy and Physiology? [2008-07-11]
How detailed does a nurse I was looking at the Gray If I have to know all of it, I am not going to make it. Anyone have guidance here?

One more [2008-05-11]
There is a nursing program from Indiana State University that is a distance LPN-BSN that is recognized in many states. It has supervised clinicals that you set up in your own community, I believe. You can take your NCLEX-RN after you graduate, of course.
As far as specific states that have their own nursing programs that are distance programs, I don't know for sure about that.
MT to nurse [2007-11-13]
I have not finished school, so cannot answer NCLEX test, but you will have a giant leg up on other students when it comes to your anatomy and physiology classes as well as basic pharmacology. Not to mention, you already know the language, and they don't. It is because of my prior knowledge and the fact that I don't have to study some of the stuff as much sa others do that I am able to continue working while in nursing school with no problem.
MT to nurse question [2007-11-12]
This past weekend, I went and gotKaplan Nursing School Entrance Exams book, and while I was at Barnes Nobles, I looked through some of the NCLEX preperation books, and it looked a lot like the stuff we need to know for transcribing.
For those who went from MTs to nurses, did you find it easier to pass the NCLEX test because of your MT background?
the main advantage to being a CNA is if you work at the hospital where you want to be hired later [2006-09-26]
as a nurse. Of course the experience is helpful, not only with patient contact but also learning time management in the hospital environment. But I wouldn't work for less just to be a CNA. At our university (Northern Illinois University), the CNA thing is not required. Also we do not take any tests like the NLN for admission. However, with only 70 students taken out of 1000 applicants and a 100% pass rate for NCLEX, I don't think it's hurting them...
