1. Is associates in nursing useless now?

   napahills replied to napahills's topic in Nevada

   Im stressed. At orientation they told us we will allneed to go on to your bsn after this. They also said that the nurses who already have jobs with an associates are safe. I just dont want to waste any time, im no spring chicken!:)

2. Is associates in nursing useless now?

   napahills posted a topic in Nevada

   Hi all. I've been accepted into the CSN Fall 2011 nursing program. From the rumors I've been hearing around, an associates degree is pretty much useless now. I do have a bachelors in Kinesiology from UNLV, that I was told a few years ago would giv...

3. Points for CSN nursing program?

   napahills replied to yeeeba's topic in Nevada

   I spoke with an advisor last week. He told me they are accepting around 21 points average every year....so you will be just fine! I was surprised, I thought it would be much harder :)

   I apologize too--I'm a newbie...so I plead ignorance! :)

5. associates or bachelors?

   napahills replied to napahills's topic in Nevada

   I looked into the accelerated program, and it would take me longer than the associates. I would need to take a few more pre req's--2 chemistry classes. It also requires a B average on the science courses, and I have a few C+'s in there....so I'd ne...

6. CSN childcare?

   napahills posted a topic in Nevada

   Have any of you utilized the childcare at CSN? What do you think of it? I just went to tour it today. I'm not completely sold on it. It's a great price, but it seemed a bit dingy to me. The teacher was very nice though. I'm kind of torn. I put...

   napahills replied to gabby27's topic in Nevada

   Does anyone know how many times per year Touro starts the nursing program? I know one starts in July...what about after that? Thanks

8. associates or bachelors?

   napahills posted a topic in Nevada

   Here's my situation....I have a bachelor's degree in Kinesiology from UNLV. Would it be in my best interest to get another bachelor's in nursing, or would an associates be fine, since I already have the bachelors in a health field? I do plan to spe...

12. where to take BIO 224 need reccomendations please help??

    napahills replied to Ksmeier's topic in Nevada

    I had to drop it the first time I tried, it was too hard. I really liked the teacher who taught when I took it the second time. AND, I passed. Good luck....anatomy and physiology are super hard and time consuming.

13. CSN BIO 223 teacher?

    napahills posted a topic in Nevada

    ANy recommendations for 223? Has anyone taken it before? I've taken this class before, but it's expired. I remember it being extremely difficult....but also largely depended on the teacher. The one instructor I wanted wasn't an option :) Thanks!

14. Full time nursing students at CSN

    napahills replied to hmck32's topic in Nevada

    I'm in the same boat---trying to decide which route to take. It looks like part time is only one semester longer...because you would take summer school too. Summer school is very time consuming, so that lessens the appeal of part time. I have 2 kid...
