1. Anyone attending cox college

   jenniferclare replied to Camwill's topic in Missouri

   I took all of my pre-reqs at Cox - I also had to retake all of my sciences because they were too old - I got my first degree nearly 10 years ago! In hindsight, I wish I would have taken them at OTC, but for nothing more than the cost difference. $99...

2. help a student nurse out? :)

   jenniferclare replied to butterfly134's topic in General Students

   We have MedSurg I & II as our classes. I haven't taken MSII yet, but in MSI, it was focused on disease processes by body system, and what tests, lab values, etc should be monitored or could indicate the presence of a particular problem. As far a...

3. Pysch Nursing clinical

   jenniferclare replied to metricalpound's topic in General Students

   I just finished Psych, and I can only speak for my own experience, but I think it's a valuable insight to an area of nursing that otherwise doesn't get much credit. Regardless of whether it's the direction you may want to take in your own career path...

4. How often do you get sick? More or less often than

   jenniferclare replied to MammaNurse2Be's topic in General Students

   Yep, same here. I've yet to get so sick that I have to miss any class or clinical, but man, at least part of spring break and christmas break are spent in bed with my own private pharmacy. It hits me hard once I finally come down from the heightened...

   jenniferclare replied to Camwill's topic in Missouri

   Hi there. I'm currently getting ready to start my 3rd semester at Cox. :) I didn't see where you mentioned which nursing track you were going to be starting later this month. I'm in the BSN-Accelerated track, and it moves a lot faster than the ASN...

6. Kindle 3 or the Nook Color

   jenniferclare replied to heavenbound's topic in General Students

   I have the Nook Color and I love it. I don't know enough about the Kindle 3 to compare individual features or specifications, but I will say that I use my Nook for both e-reading and internet access and find it reliable, fast, and the battery lasts ...

9. Anybody put their home on line for nursing school

   jenniferclare replied to labchic's topic in General Students

   I sold my home and used the proceeds to pay for my first year of school; unfortunately, in this market, that was all the proceeds I could get. I'll still have around 30K in loans, but... it is what it is, I suppose.

12. Betrayed by my Program

    jenniferclare replied to This's topic in General Students

    Ok, so I'll be honest first by saying I only read about 3/4ths of the way down the first page, so some (or all ) of this may have already been said. First of all, you are where you are right now. Yes, it is possible that they promised the moon and w...

13. ASN program and taking science classes at the same time

    jenniferclare replied to Copperismydog's topic in General Students

    bhanson made an excellent point. It's obvious you are no stranger to hard work and that you're completely ok with the knowledge that it is nothing but hard work still ahead of you. With that sort of grit and determination, and your obvious primary i...

    jenniferclare replied to mom2rjns's topic in General Students

    I'm so sorry to hear that!! I know it must feel awful, especially to be so close. BUT... keep your chin up. Things WILL get better, and you will be able to have another crack at it before long. I know it might seem that it's putting you far behind...

    jenniferclare replied to EMEddie's topic in General Students

    Congrats on the acceptance!!! :) I'm also starting a program in January (BSN-A), and I asked a lot of the current nursing students the exact same question, because I had heard the same. I feel like the overwhelming advice is to ditch the thought tha...
