   JeromeFJ replied to overtonis's topic in Informatics

   I know this post was made a while ago, so I hope someone is still viewing it. Carl, I am like your protege. I am a Drexel ACE grad, and I also work at HUP in the ED. I, too, am interested in the field of informatics, but as I am a relatively newer ...

2. Job market for new grads

   JeromeFJ replied to phosphorus's topic in NP

   @Alisabeth Hey, Alisa. You are just the person I want to talk to. I just started a new job in the OR. It's been my first job out of school, and so far I love the OR. I think I always had a love for the OR, and this job has just confirmed that. I...

3. OR nurse as a new grad

   JeromeFJ replied to judycollingwell's topic in Operating Room

   How do you folks feel about starting in the OR as a new grad? I saw one post, but I want to hear how people feel about it. Is the OR something that you're trapped into once you do your residency program? Is it possible to leave the OR and go somew...

5. Typical ASN VS BSN questions

   JeromeFJ replied to Student4_life's topic in ADN/BSN

   I believe the nursing classes are pretty much the same. Rather you are in a BSN program or a ASN program, there's only so many ways to put in a foley. There's extra classes in a BSN that prepare you to perhaps manage, or to influence nursing in some...

6. Typical ASN VS BSN questions

   JeromeFJ replied to Student4_life's topic in ADN/BSN

   I agree with that in a way. I think if you can sit and plan out your future like that you can make that move... The thing is, some people take just as long getting thru their ASN as do the students with BSNs because of prerequisites. Some students t...

7. Typical ASN VS BSN questions

   JeromeFJ replied to Student4_life's topic in ADN/BSN

   I don't understand people having Bachelor's degrees, and then doing 2 years associate degree programs? The only time I think it's a good option, is if you simply cannot afford a second degree option BSN program, or you can't commit the amount of tim...

8. Drexel University-ACE Program Fall '09

   JeromeFJ replied to BrieretheGr8's topic in Pennsylvania

   Is anyone else having financial aid issues? We start on Monday, and I listened to Drexel and took out exactly what they told me I should. Now I'm finding out that they split your disbursed money into the 4 quarters. This would be great, except for...

9. Drexel University-ACE Program Fall '09

   JeromeFJ replied to BrieretheGr8's topic in Pennsylvania

   I applied about a month or so ago, and just found out today that I was accepted. A friend of mine was accepted on Friday, I believe. I think she applied a few months ago, though. I would say it took 2 weeks after I got the letter tha t said they r...

    Howdy folks, I just got accepted provisionally to the ACE program for the Fall. Questions I have that I hope someone has experienced are... There is a prereq listed as "computer applications/public speaking/communication elective". What exactly ty...
