1. Is anyone applying to or has been accepted to AACC Spring 2013 program

   thenameismac replied to Keppard's topic in Maryland

   For those who got accepted what were your scores like? GPA/ TEAS? I need to retake API and APII and I still have to take Micro. Everything else is done. My overall GPA is okay but I don't have the best science grades (hence the retakes). What do...

2. What should I buy?

   thenameismac replied to PediatricDream's topic in Pre-Nursing

   It's in MD. I have found that not a lot of people really respond from BCCC specially but if you search supplies for nursing school I find that its pretty universal. i hope this makes sense.

5. UMSON Spring 2013

   thenameismac replied to eodenwal's topic in Maryland

   I live in the city and ive never encountered that but then again i dont walk alone, at night, and I drive everywhere. I got lost downtown around lexington and 1st mariner for half an hour at 930pm a few weeks ago. I was dressed a little differently ...

6. Online classes....

   thenameismac replied to 7237dallas's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I have to agree with the above poster. Ive taken many classes online including English, Algebra, A&P, Philosophy, etc. I find that there are indeed more to do. For English i had just 4-6 papers to write if i had it on campus but online i had that...

8. Fall Semester 2012

   thenameismac replied to ginna121's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I'd like to either specialize in Emergency Medicine or subspecialize in Critical Care. I work in a hospital on a step down unit from ICU and I'm so fascinated with whats going on with these patients. As a nurse i dont have a preference for a unit al...

10. UMSON Spring 2013

    thenameismac replied to eodenwal's topic in Maryland

    For some reason i was thinking 695 but that way works. Less traffic. 695 is horrible in the morning and evening either way. Catonsville or that area near wilkins ave may not be a bad choice either as far as housing near the city. There are many optio...

11. UMSON Spring 2013

    thenameismac replied to eodenwal's topic in Maryland

    Im not applying yet but i live near the school. Glen Burnie is 15-20 minutes away but the traffic would suck getting into the city. If you drive you have to consider parking and if you take the MTA the commute is a couple of hours. You are better off...

12. To all pre/current nursing students!

    thenameismac replied to Godismystrength's topic in Pre-Nursing

    When you apply for a job at a hospital regarding patient care it says specifically that clinicals arent considered experience. If that was the case everyone would have experience and the competition would be even more great. Even still they ask for a...

    Could not have said this better myself! Life is all about making mistakes. Learning from them is the important part. You understand your situation and recognize your potential. That attitude will get your far. Sent from my iPhone using allnurses.com

15. Time management / study schedule

    thenameismac replied to xlovehappyx's topic in Pre-Nursing

    This is so so so true. Many times i sit down and study and then look up 3 hours have passed and i only read one paragraph. Either i blacked out and partied or im not studying effectively. Lol. Sent from my iPhone using allnurses.com
