4. Can I be a nurse even though I can be shy and quiet?

   RNsoonNP replied to Camjayjayy's topic in School Programs

   By nature, I'm also an introvert and very quiet, but I always knew I wanted to be a nurse because I love the aspect of healing people. With time and experience in my clinicals, I learned to interact with my patients and also medical team. I'm still t...

   RNsoonNP replied to Flightmed123's topic in NCLEX

   UWorld is about 1000 questions and 2 practice exams. I finished all 1000 questions but didn't do the practice exams, but I still passed. I believe it was $100 for 3 months? I started my BORN application during my last semester before I even graduate...

   RNsoonNP replied to yh1991's topic in School Programs

   Your schedule will vary depending on where you are placed for clinical. No you don't have classes everyday, at most, you will be on campus 2-3x a week. But you may have clinical on your off-days. FYI for the first 2 semesters, Simmons does all your c...

8. Nursing PreReqs

   RNsoonNP replied to mhite226's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Absolutely, as long as they have the space. They give priority to their students first in terms for registering for classes, and let other individuals register after. I took my college classes along with classes at a community college. You have a be...

    FYI, the practice questions on Evolve are free. Just make an account, add respective textbooks into your catalog/cart & complete the "purchase" (should be free)

11. Just got accepted to nursing school and I'm not excited.

    RNsoonNP replied to mom2twins9909's topic in General Students

    Hi there, the advice I would give is do whatever makes you feel comfortable. Now you know you are capable to getting into nursing school, but are you willing/ready to pursue the degree? That is a question only you can answer for yourself. If you feel...

12. Nursing PreReqs

    RNsoonNP replied to mhite226's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Hi there, it really depends on your schedule and how much work-load you can handle. I also decided to switch into nursing when I was about to graduate from college. With the time constrain, I took a year off after graduation to work and take the rest...

    I don't know what HESI is, so no, Simmons does do it lol. We use Evolve practice questions to help us study of tests, it was particularly helpful in Patho, Med Surg, Pharm, Psy, Maternity, & Community. Most assignments will be from other software...

    RNsoonNP replied to yh1991's topic in School Programs

    After you finish the first semester, the school issues you a CNA certification as our coursework and clinical experience is equivalent to that of a CNA. So don't bother paying for a separate certification. Many of my classmates worked as CNAs for the...

    RNsoonNP replied to yh1991's topic in School Programs

    I would say attend the open houses of both schools and tour the campus to see which one is a better fit for you. I'm from Boston and know a lot about the schools around here. Simmons does not have superb reputation for their undergraduate programs, ...
