   Pinksand replied to futurenurse0707's topic in Georgia

   Hey Everyone! Has anyone heard anything about how the traditional nursing program is at KSU? (teachers, clinical sites, software required, first time nursing student vs. being a senior??) Since there is no informational or tour provided by the sc...

4. A&P I I got a C!!!!!! :-( :-(

   Pinksand replied to misskt334's topic in Pre-Nursing

   This is my 2nd. degree as well. I was doing well untill A&P II - I got a C. Even though my GPA was a 3.2, I still have to retake it. Most of the schools that I've applied to tell me that C is bringing down my science GPA. It's the only C in a...

5. Do having A&P first help with Microbiology?

   Pinksand replied to guiltysins's topic in Pre-Nursing

   guiltysins - Generally speaking it's best to know about the human body when it comes to Micro, but you don't absolutely need to have it to do well in Micro. With that being said, I wouldn't recommed that you take 2 of the 6 required prereq. classes ...

7. HESI Admission Assessment Test for Nursing School

   Pinksand replied to 2bLeonurse1989's topic in Georgia

   Hey - I have taken the HESI, TEAS and the NET (more than once) and by far the HESI was the easiest and the study guide closely followed it. (It was worth the read since I had forgotten Roman Numerals.) GOOD LUCK!

    Congrats to you all! I'm looking forward to meeting all of you as well. I have a bachelors degree (non-medical) and I plan to volunteer this summer at a local hospital. I have a phlebotomy certificate but have not been able to find a job doing that...

11. Gwinnett Tech Nursing Program

    Pinksand replied to Pinksand's topic in Georgia

    amber1604 - I think that GTC will be sure to have all of their "ducks in a row" for full accreditation. (They were able to get everything together when there was an LPN program.) Also, since they have abandoned the LPN program completely, they will...

    Pinksand replied to keira30's topic in Operating Room

    lostgrl85 - I am very much interested in working the OR. May I ask, where did you graduate? Also, do you think I would have a shot at getting in with a BS or AS? Does it even matter? I got accepted to an AS program, and I'm still waiting to hear ba...

    Hello all! Glad to know this thread is here. I'm 36 and on my second career. I spent almost 10 years (off and on) in the architecture world and wasn't completely fulfilled. Then my brother (who was 40 at the time) had a stroke and it stopped me in...
