When I took mine in August it stopped at 70. I passed.

hey man i was wondering who you worked for in New Olreans. i work for acadian and they had a guy from NO in my orientation

In our class, after a certain point, they kicked people out if there average wasn't a 70 or if they had too many points taken off their affective grade. We had I think 30 something actually start and probably 10 or so either failed or quit. The one that goofed off all the time is not here still.

Well I'm pretty much done. We're just doing written practice tests this week. I made a 91 on the final and have a 93 in the class. Should be taking our national practical at the end of August. woohoo!

Just to let everyone know-only 2 more days to go. Tomorrow is our final and friday is our mock registry; can't wait to be done. I should be done with national testing by the end of august.

I don't think it's just the smell that gets to people, but also the health risks that come with it. I personally hate smoke. I also have asthma and bad allergies that cigarette smoke aggravates. In Louisiana, it's now illegal to smoke in restaurants and most work places which is good to me...

the first university I went to was like that and it was BSN. I switched to a community college and it's an ADN program. It's all the same-we take the same test and start out money wise the same. You going for BSN?

Anatomy isn't too bad. I switched colleges last semester and I took anatomy over and in the process of taking physiology over to better my gpa. My first college it was anat and phys together and was killer. The community college I'm at is not nearly as detailed as my other one was. I don't...
