1. PBCC/PBSC Full-Time or Part-Time Program

   *Muffin* replied to *Muffin*'s topic in Florida

   Hi. I'm going to be applying for the August 2011 term. One thing I'm glad to find out about is that they starting August 2011 PBSC will no longer be accepting the NLN exam but will be using the HESI exam. Those NLN seats fill up so fast! And then onc...

2. Need Your Opinion: ASN or BSN?

   *Muffin* replied to *Muffin*'s topic in Florida

   I'm not sure if I'm understanding your question correctly, but I'm going to try to answer the best I can. Palm Beach State College's ASN program is based on a point system. The more of the pre-reqs and co-reqs you get out of the way, the better. Gene...

   I am very interested in becoming an esthetician. I have an appointment with Boca Beauty Academy tomorrow. I'm interested in both aesthetics and nursing and would love to combine the two fields. I'm also interested in massage therapy and may consider ...

4. Should I stay as a CNA or become a PCT?

   *Muffin* posted a topic in Florida

   Long story short, it's going to be a while before I'm able to complete a nursing program, and I would like to get started with something in the mean time so that I can gain experience and earn some cash! It's been about 3 months since I received my c...

   Sorry to create another thread about this, but after relentless searching I wasn't able to find the answer to my inquiries, and so here they are! 1. Does Broward College require Human Growth & Development as either a Pre-req or a Co-req? 2. Does ...

8. Need Your Opinion: ASN or BSN?

   *Muffin* replied to *Muffin*'s topic in Florida

   Yeah, for PBSC's nursing program I still need to take Human Growth & Development, Microbiology w/lab and Anatomy & Physiology II w/lab, but Microbiology and Anatomy II are co-requisites, so all I would have to do is take Human Growth to finis...

9. Need Your Opinion: ASN or BSN?

   *Muffin* replied to *Muffin*'s topic in Florida

   Thank you for your input. I've been seriously considering whether or not I should go straight for my BSN or take the ASN route first. The ASN route is probably more feasible because it is cheaper and allows greater flexibility of scheduling. I have t...

11. College Algebra or Equivalent?

    *Muffin* replied to *Muffin*'s topic in Pre-Nursing

    After talking with my school about my options, I've decided that I'm going to take the College Algebra Clep Test. I won't have to go through an appeal process to take the test, and should I fail the test it wouldn't count as a course attempt so I cou...

12. CNA JOBS IN FLORIDA

    *Muffin* replied to Colleen2014's topic in CNA/MA

    Thanks for the input. I actually would prefer a hospital job as well, but my inexperience is holding me back a bit, I think. I like working fewer days and longer hours, but at this point I really want the experience as well. I've applied for a couple...

14. College Algebra or Equivalent?

    *Muffin* replied to *Muffin*'s topic in Pre-Nursing

    Thank you for your positivity and encouragement . I guess that's the dilemma. I haven't exactly decided what school I'm going to go to yet . I was focusing on finishing my AA degree requirements and I've been looking at various schools in the meant...

15. College Algebra or Equivalent?

    *Muffin* replied to *Muffin*'s topic in Pre-Nursing

    Yeah, unfortunately I agree. College Algebra is probably my safest bet . Yeah, I hear you. The problem is I'm not working with a lot of time, and my school doesn't allow me to take remedial classes because I actually scored into higher level maths ...
