1. RN-BSN more gen eds?!

   NjRN_1004 replied to NjRN_1004's topic in Texas (UTA)

   Hey EternalFeather, Thanks for the response. I'm starting to get a better idea of how many I'll be taking if I choose to go with UTA. I have a feeling that UTA requires less nursing courses (correct me if I'm wrong) so they need students to take extr...

   NjRN_1004 replied to NjRN_1004's topic in Texas (UTA)

   Not wary.... If you live in NJ and went to an ADN program here, all the pre reqs for the ADN program is sufficient for the RN to BSN. No additional classes besides basic Statistics. UTA requires a lot of hi sorry and politics classes. Only thing is,...

   That makes sense that your other degrees in college covered a lot of the gen Eds. And it also makes sense that to graduate from a BSN program, you need a certain amount of credit hours. Thanks for the response.

   Thanks for the response. Not sure about every bridge program requiring additional courses... One of the schools in NJ I applied to is only making students take nursing classes. Maybe I need to compare the amount of credit hours for both schools. Any...

   I applied to start in August. However, I'm a little annoyed that I may have to take an additional 8-10 classes on top of all my nursing classes. There's a bunch of English, history, and politics class that they require. For for those currently enrol...

   For obvious reasons, I cannot share my Hurst review course with anyone but myself. Private messages regarding this will not be responded to.

   Hi Jeff, First of all, I'm responding thinking that whatever I say, you'll only think of it as an option, and not base your entire decision off of this response. So here's my take on using HURST to prepare for school. I vote "NO" and here's my reason...

    i was weak on content..so I first focused on content then did a ton of questions... So to answer ur question, doing a ton of questions is helpful after knowing ur content. Also, for me, "a ton" is doing 125 max. I really think that LaCharity saved m...

    Since I was able to get a lot of help from AN during nursings school and also to study for the NCLEX, I thought it'd be nice to pay it forward and hope I can help others as well. So I graduated nursing school in NJ last December 2014. I went to a sch...
