  1. Pre-Nursing student here. I have an opportunity to choose between three hospital wards to do my PCT clinicals. Does anyone have any insight or suggestions as to what I should consider in making my choice? Choice 1: Cardiac Step-down unit at Hospital ...
  2. MSU BSN and ABSN

    Thanks for the reply roma4204. I appreciate your insight!
  3. I called the department, and the nurse on the phone recommended me any night from 8-midnight. She said that if I was the kind of person who wanted to volunteer and learn (which I am!), then there would always be things for me to do during that time. ...
  4. Volunteering......Good or Bad??

    I also cannot think of anything bad about volunteering. I say go for it and be eager to learn!
  5. I'm a comma nazi and have some other run-on sentence, grammer and stylistic advice. But it's just my advice, take it or leave it. I also suggest perhaps getting an English major or maybe your local librarian to read it one last time before you send i...
  6. Anyone applying for LCC's Nursing program this spring?

    I know 71 won't make the cut, there's so many people that applied last year with more points than that that didn't get into the program. And their points have probably only gone up in the past year. I should have at least 85 points for next year. Hop...
  7. Anyone applying for LCC's Nursing program this spring?

    Hi Crystal, I am! But as I think I will only have 69-71 points for their traditional program, it would take a miracle for me to get accepted. Next year, tho, I know I'll make it in. Unless they drastically change their entrance points system for 201...
  8. Thanks for all the great replies! I feel fine volunteering Fri/Sat from midnight-4 am or something, but I'm just worried about it being too hectic and that I'd just be in the way. It's interesting to think of Monday afternoons as a good time! But it ...
  9. No Worker Left Behind

    I spoke with a representative recently. His suggestion was once you are accepted into a Nursing program, whenever that is when you have an acceptance letter, go to your local MichiganWorks! office and get a caseworker assigned to you. He said the spe...
  10. Greetings! I will shortly be signing up for a 4-hour block of time to volunteer at a hospital as a student. My question for y'all is what days/times would you recommend I put in for if I can get assigned to the ER? They'll take volunteers 24-hours pe...
  11. "A" is for Anatomy!!

    My experience was the same as yours. I got 100s on all the lab tests. I didn't do as well in the lecture portions. I'm a little bit more worried about Physiology since there must be less rote memorization. I also have to take a different prof for Phy...
  12. How much is school costing you?

    Hmm. I've always been told by financial advisors that student debt isn't forgiven in bankruptcy. Unless they put their tuition on credit cards...
  13. Volunteering

    UM-Flint? Does that mean you are located closer to Flint or Ann Arbor? If you're in Flint, I think UM-Flint works a lot with Hurley. I personally would contact the nursing program at UM-Flint and ask if they have a suggestion if they know what hospit...
  14. A&P Help

    go to ratemyprofessors.com and read what previous students have said about that specific instructor teaching that specific course. Look for things like "his lab tests come straight from the manual" or "she lectures on one thing but the lecture test i...
  15. What to do, What to do??

    Ok, I'm sorry for overreacting. I'm glad you're ok. Don't give up though. It is next to impossible it seems to get into an RN program right now. I'll be applying next year, but I'm trying to prepare myself for all the rejection letters I'll probably ...
