3. From BSN to MD?

   jules2980 replied to dancer_meggs's topic in General Nursing

   It seems from what I've seen that as long as you satisfy their requirements for admissions it shouldn't matter what your degree is in. If you can fit in all the extra science classes (and I mean a LOT of extra science classes) and it's something you...

4. Does it matter if I have an AA, BS, etc to get accepted into CRNA schools?

   jules2980 replied to autumn_sky's topic in CRNA

   I would check with the programs you are interested in applying to and see what their requirements for admission are. Good luck!

5. Whats are the best classes to start with?

   jules2980 replied to itsnever2L8's topic in General Nursing

   I'm taking A&P, chemistry and intro to biology. the biology is online which is ok but I would not want to take the chemistry online. granted it's been 20 years since I had chemistry in high school, but I could never figure this stuff out on my ...

6. 100% pro-life, considering nursing school

   jules2980 replied to Beebop25's topic in General Nursing

   I don't understand why you feel the need to rush into a 2nd career. You're only 23, it seems you haven't even started your first career yet. Why don't you give yourself some time off from school and evaluate what it is you really want to do. If it...

7. I Bombed My Physiology Exam

   jules2980 replied to carlasbizz's topic in General Nursing

   There are 3 or 4 people in my physiology class this semester who failed it over the summer. That's a tough class to take in a short semester. Take it alone and see if your school has any tutoring help. You can do it!

8. Will be a CNA help me find an RN position?

   jules2980 replied to LoveMyBugs's topic in General Nursing

   I think being a CNA is a great experience and would give you an advantage over other job candidates who have never worked in a health care setting. If you think it's too much, maybe you can reduce your hours until school is out. Good luck!

9. Can Inspiration and motivation really not be a nursing topic:?????

   jules2980 replied to angelique777's topic in General Nursing

   Sorry your post was bumped..I think it's a great topic. Much more interesting than yet another thread about "RN vs LPN...help me decide!!!" Ugh.

12. I haven't a clue

    jules2980 replied to shamari's topic in General Nursing

    Whatever you do, don't wear white! And make sure your pants fit well (i.e. aren't too tight). I have seen white scrubs advertised as non-see through but I don't know how well they work.

13. CONFUSED ! HELP!

    jules2980 replied to NursingIsLove's topic in General Nursing

    Most community colleges have transfer centers or transfer advisors that can help you map out a plan of classes that will satisfy core requirements but that will also transfer to other schools. It's really worth an hour of your time to meet with some...

14. Does reputation matter for Nursing School?

    jules2980 replied to Lindsay2228's topic in General Nursing

    I could see a good school being beneficial if you wanted to go on and get an advanced degree down the road. School admissions usually pay attention to that kind of thing. Do what will make you happy. If you really want to go there and think you can...

15. I lost my passion for nursing..how do I get it back?

    jules2980 replied to Harlene's topic in General Nursing

    If you're able, maybe you could try volunteering, mission trip, etc. They always motivate me and remind me why I want to be a nurse. Perhaps it might do the same for you. From your post however, it seems like there might be more than that going on...
