What is the Application Process? What are the approved nursing entrance exams? We currently accept one nursing entrance exam. Best scores are accepted, not necessarily latest. When is the approved nursing entrance exam given? We lost 12 out of 45 in first semester. We take 3 tests, one day a week, instead of tests spread throughout the week.
But the material is harder and requires more studying. We have 3 more weeks of class left, then a 3 week break. Let me tell you, it's getting harder and harder to stay motivated. This program is intense and you have to keep with it because one major mess up can knock you out if you are borderline. Jul 19, We do not have finals at TTC-Dickson. All the tests are counted equally. If you make a 79 on any test then that is failing.
As long as your final average is above 80 then you pass that subject. My suggestion is to study, study, study. Use whatever study method that has worked for you in the past. You won't have time to do things like you have in the past, and dont procrastinate.
You will regret it like me. Also, try to do very well on the tests at the beginning of the semester so that if you do bad on a test near the end of the semester you won't have to worry about your average dropping below Also, write down everything, even if you think you will remember it, because you may not remember.
Try your best to stay organized. Get at least a 1in folder with dividers and some of those clear sheet protectors. My folder has a clear covered slot on the front and back where I put my class schedules that the teacher passes out. Also, you will probably need a rolling backpack because those books are very heavy. Oh, I just thought of something else that has helped me!
My laptop has been a lifesaver. At the beginning of the semester I didn't bring it and my hand almost fell off from trying to write all those notes. My hand hurt all the time when I was in class, and I was missing some of the notes because I couldn't write fast enough to keep up.
I discovered that taking notes on my laptop is so much quicker and now I hardly ever miss any notes! Also, help each other out as much as you can.
If you dont know how to do something then odds are that someone else in the class knows how. Also, if any drama starts in your class the best thing to do is to stay out of it.
Life is too short and this class is too important to get caught up in negativity. I know from experience that the ones who stay out of it are much happier :. Your welcome!! In the first semester we did our Nursing home and Psych very interesting rotations. We are now in our 2nd semester and we are doing our hospital, OB, Health department and ER rotations.
Some schools do home health but we will not be doing it. In the 3rd semester we will be doing our school nurse, and more hospital rotations and I'm not sure what others. Both classroom work and clinical experiences are such that upon completion of the course, the graduate is eligible for written examination by the State Board of Nursing. Licensed practical nurses, who have passed their examination, usually work under the supervision of the registered nurse, physician, or dentist.
