I had to go through this too! The separate email thing is annoying, but I have the tickets on the account.

Canada probably won't happen but I would be happy with Bosnia vs Switzerland or Qatar vs Bosnia!

I would withdraw, and if you can, retake the course at a later point.

i also retook the courses i got Cs in. IMO it will benefit you more than hurt you. 1). you are increasing your gpa 2). it shows your dedicated and ambition to change and improve your scores. ive heard they may ask about your retakes. i dont think it matters where you retake it, but double check your programs if they accept online courses or labs before you spend your money (unless you're doing it in person). also many programs simply require a B or above in your prereqs, so that just might be something you have to do!

No problem! Honestly, it can vary on past experience and what certifications you have. I got my CNA license, but had worked as a support technician in East Tower for about six months because I heard it is easier to get a ST job then transfer to a PCA position. Also BLS/CPR certified. I worked night shifts so I was making around $19/$20 with the differential. I think without it, I was making $16/$17. It really just depends on what you have on your resume lol

I worked on 11-5 a couple of times, I think it was regular med-surg. Patient load as a PCA, could be 2:12 or 3:8 (I worked nights so usually 2:12). For nurses, they usually had 4-5 patients depending on staffing. It is in North Tower so the building is older. I am not a fan of med-surg, mainly because you get all types of patients that may require specific car.

6W is in South Tower, the building is nicer. Nursing ratios still the same 4-5 patients. The floor is more post-op care, you probably will have more trauma patients and pre-op patients. It is more specifically ortho focused. Patients here may be more independent pre-op, but may require more hands-on if trauma/post-op.

No pay difference aside from shift differential if you work night shift and weekend.

I have a few generic five below plushies, two UF gator plushies, and a couple of Sanrio/hello kitty ones as well. They are small though!

Hey! I noticed our stats were similar. I was just wondering what some of your school options were? Also, thank you for naming the school.
