1. Does it seem like EVERYONE is trying to be a nurse?

   mina11 replied to mrs.tt's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Honestly, I wouldn't worry. When I was thinking about possibly attending law school school, it seemed like everybody was thinking about going to law school (a really awful waste of money but at the time I was feeling really lost). When I was thinking...

2. I don't care if you know someone whos had every disease that we talk about!

   mina11 replied to Duice88's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Haha. That's hilarious. You should just pretend she's a television show running in the background and tune her out. She sounds like a bad sitcom.

3. A&P I is not going well

   mina11 replied to SingDanceRunLife's topic in Pre-Nursing

   To be honest, I prefer teaching myself. It makes me feel more in control of my own education, and there are so many materials out there to learn from. I think you should probably just ask her what is going to be on the test and ask her all kinds of q...

4. Does UDC have the worst BSN program in the DC area?

   mina11 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

   For reasons out of my control, I may actually be looking at attending UDC for a BSN program. The ABSN program at Georgetown is expensive, UMD's program at Shady Grove will probably not let a DC resident have in-state tuition, and neither will GMU ove...

   mina11 replied to Raymond CA's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Congrats! I was just curious -- where did you do your pre-reqs? Did you do them online or in a classroom setting?

7. A&P Online at CCC or NVCC?

   mina11 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

   Hi everyone, I'm wondering whether I should take anatomy and physiology through Northern Virginia Community College or through CCCOnline. They're going to cost about the same amount (since I live in DC and NVCC is charging out-of-state tuition to me)...

8. Taking A&P I Fall 2009?

   mina11 replied to Hoping2BeStudent2010's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I'm taking it this fall and working full-time. I wish I could just take all my pre-reqs at once, but I'm too scared to leave my job.

9. ANybody applying to NVCC for Fall 09?

   mina11 replied to Cilantrophobe's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Are you guys all Virginia residents? I've been trying to call Annette Fowler to ask her about the likelihood of a DC resident getting accepted to the accelerated online or in-person program, and I haven't been able to reach her. I can't fathom paying...

10. Please help me, my Micro instructor is from hell!!

    mina11 replied to afranklin's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I think you should complain to the administration that she was absent so much and missed giving lectures. Don't mention your grade on the test, but just say that her schedule is becoming erratic and you're disappointed with the quality of the class. ...

11. Where is the best place to take A&P I online?

    mina11 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

    Hi everybody, I was going to take A&P I online through a community college that is really cheap, but another poster on this site mentioned that the exam questions are very vague and that she had to work extra hard. I'm working full-time and feel ...

12. Which school to choose?

    mina11 replied to Sophia Petrillo's topic in Pre-Nursing

    School A sounds like the best option. Is the tuition at School B greater than or less than the amount you would spend on daycare for your son? I feel like, in this economy, saving money is the most important thing, especially if you have kids. Good l...

13. Nurses, physicians weigh in on new doctoral nurse degree

    mina11 replied to Brian's topic in Doctoral

    The poet might be useful for a eulogy should no doctor be available, haha.

14. Affording pre-reqs and nursing school

    mina11 replied to mina11's topic in Pre-Nursing

    She was the admissions officer at one of the schools I mentioned. She absolutely refused to address my question about UDC, only saying in her reply that they felt NVCC best prepared local prospective applicants.
