3. Important Question about Nursing!

   Kassiopeia replied to NewgradR.N2022's topic in Pre-Nursing

   A BSN is a BSN. Of course you can get a job at the same rate as someone with one degree. I have B.S. in Biology and taking some pre-reqs now before applying for Fall 2011 accelerated programs.

   Kassiopeia replied to 2bnurseforce1's topic in General Students

   Soo you have to have your nails done and wear make up to feel sexy? LOL. I hate having long nails. They irritate me. And when I wear make up I feel like my skin isn't breathing. My bf loves that I am naturally pretty and don't need to make myself fak...

5. Can a shy person become a good nurse?

   Kassiopeia replied to DaynaDawn's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I am a bit shy too but what I found helps is to tell yourself "get over it. Everyone makes mistakes. Just do it" - if you're talking about procedures, etc. If we're talking about people, just keep thinking that they don't know you so whatever they ma...

6. how do YOU take notes?

   Kassiopeia replied to glitterygirl's topic in Pre-Nursing

   When the prof does not provide us with her powerpoints, I read the book ahead of time and take notes, then take notes in class on everything she says. After class on the same day I combine my notes with professor's notes and somehow it ends up workin...

11. Microbiology problem, 3 credit course OK!?

    Kassiopeia replied to igrassl's topic in Pre-Nursing

    My school has 3cr Microbio class and a separate 1cr Microbio lab, so I took them both. It's probably the same in your case.

12. Hesi-A2 A&P :(

    Kassiopeia posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

    I know that this test has been discussed many times but I haven't found anything on my specific question. I have a degree in Bio but unfortunately never took A&P I during my education. Anyway, my degree means I know a lot about different areas of...

13. how to split taking pre-reqs

    Kassiopeia replied to Kassiopeia's topic in Pre-Nursing

    In my school they said you have to finish in the spring before you start in the fall. They said they have to see most pre-req grades so I think just 3 classes will not harm my chances, will it? I mean if I get all As this semester there is no way I c...

15. 4.0 in pre reqs difficulty

    Kassiopeia replied to JonB04's topic in Pre-Nursing

    They key is to study every day, especially for A&P. It does not have to be hours and hours. Just a quick overview of material everyday will keep it fresh until exams and also will make it stick into your long term memory.
