1. A&P prof's inappropriate response to request for alternative to animal dissection

   nocheapones replied to sarailyse's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Does this mean that you should go work at Outback? Please, some of these comments are so ridiculous. She has not expressed anything that indicates that she will have any problem with actual nursing. She also isn't trying to impose her attitudes on ot...

2. Depression & Nursing

   nocheapones replied to noellebell's topic in General Students

   I'm very thankful for this thread. I have a long history of depression, but in the past few years have managed without meds. I'll be starting nursing school in the fall and I'm worried about what that will do to my depression. I'm relieved to know I'...

3. What would you do if you were me?

   nocheapones replied to Britt7's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I can see both sides of it, but personally I would never be able to leave my child for that long a period of time. There are undoubtedly alot of "firsts" that you will miss out on that way. Like I said, I see the other side of it too, and I do think ...

4. West Penn School of Nursing?

   nocheapones replied to sid05's topic in Pennsylvania

   I want to say that my chem class actually ended after the deadline. I can't remember exactly when the deadline was though, but my class should have ended around when yours is this year (with final grades being due a week later, and transcripts being...

5. Information/Registration Session

   nocheapones replied to nocheapones's topic in General Students

   LOL me too! I like to plan everything in advance, and it drives me crazy not really being able to do that yet.

6. Information/Registration Session

   nocheapones posted a topic in General Students

   I just got my letter today with information about the information/registration session that I will have to attend. It's in early April. I am sooo excited :) Anyone else around here waiting for the first tangible bit of nursing school?

7. Help! UPMC Shdyside PSB Testing

   nocheapones replied to ahley2323's topic in General Students

   I think there are alot of posts about this already, so you might want to try the search feature on the top right of each page. Also you will likely find more stuff about Shadyside specifically in the PA nursing programs board. Have you used any of th...

8. The long wait. Yay or Nay?

   nocheapones replied to guest042302019's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I already know that I'm in for fall, but I had applied previously to a couple other programs and had to wait for those... was ultimately denied for one because they never got my high school transcript on time (even though it was sent ::eye roll:: ) a...

9. Orientation date

   nocheapones replied to cmonkey's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Yikes... are those your only two options? I hate to say it, but they both sound kind've scary, though I'm not in nursing school yet so I can't comment on whether or not what you said about school 1 not telling clinical sites about the students is nor...

10. Taking A&P while in nursing school... how crazy hard is it?

    nocheapones replied to nocheapones's topic in General Students

    Well, thanks to this thread and all your replies, I've decided to try a little harder to get into A&P over the summer. At my CC where I will be taking my nursing classes, they have no open sections of A&P 1 and even if they did, I'd still hav...

11. Taking A&P while in nursing school... how crazy hard is it?

    nocheapones replied to nocheapones's topic in General Students

    No, unfortunately. There are no open spots in any of the A&P 1 classes this summer. I was thinking of taking Micro, but then I wouldn't be able to take one of the other co-reqs this summer that I would otherwise need to take in the fall, and I ca...

12. Taking A&P while in nursing school... how crazy hard is it?

    nocheapones replied to nocheapones's topic in General Students

    I'm gonna guess that that's how it's done in mine as well, since they aren't pre-reqs (but, like you said with your program, alot of people do finish them early to get them out of the way.) Thanks for your reply :)

13. Taking A&P while in nursing school... how crazy hard is it?

    nocheapones replied to nocheapones's topic in General Students

    i will have to keep that in mind, thanks!

14. Taking A&P while in nursing school... how crazy hard is it?

    nocheapones replied to nocheapones's topic in General Students

    Thank you so much, it's great to hear from someone who's done it! I don't really have an option at this point, unless I were to delay starting my actual nursing classes but in my mind that's not an option at all!

15. Taking A&P while in nursing school... how crazy hard is it?

    nocheapones replied to nocheapones's topic in General Students

    Just out of curiosity, is the organic chem you take for your nursing program the same as what a chemistry major would take, or is it tailored specifically for nursing/allied health?
