1. Working as a CNA and Nursing School

   anakin322 replied to nmagfc's topic in General Students

   I just started the nursing program a couple of weeks ago and work full-time as a CNA. I also am married with a 2 year old and 6 month old. It is extremely difficult, but doable. My wife stays home and takes care of the house, so that's one thing I...

2. Microbiology and A&P I at CSN?

   anakin322 replied to Kchaffin's topic in Nevada

   You're definitely in for a fun semester. I did both A&P 1 and honors micro last year. It keeps you busy, but is definitely doable. Best advice I can give you is to not let yourself fall behind. Both classes are lecture and lab, so there's goi...

3. Nursing School and working

   anakin322 replied to Mars88's topic in General Students

   I was going to recommend this exact same thing. It's going to be very hard having to drive an hour to school all the time, but utilize that time to your advantage. Re-listen to the lectures so that you are more familiar with the material. One thin...

4. CSN Full vs. Part time schedule

   anakin322 replied to lolaviex's topic in Nevada

   You do get to pick your schedule, but you don't. When you go to orientation there is a wall full of pre-selected schedules, probably close to 40 of them. You randomly draw numbers and go in numerical order to select from th pre-selected schedules. ...

5. Anyone applying for ADN Spring 2012?

   anakin322 replied to emjhay03's topic in Nevada

   With 27 points I would recommend trying to retake the teas or another class to move up a point or two. As one person said only some people got into fall 2011 with 27 while the rest became alternates. I believe the trend in points is moving up every...

6. Cheating

   anakin322 replied to stunursegem's topic in General Students

   The fact that you feel guilty over this situation shows the amount of compassion and integrity that you have. You absolutely did nothing wrong. Your friend was silly for asking anyone to help her cheat. Like you said, if you had said nothing and t...

7. CSN RN 2011

   anakin322 replied to SunshineDaisy's topic in Nevada

   As long as you have the 1st two shots you can do clinicals and either get the third one sometime during the semester or even wait til between semesters. The 1st two are the most important, the third one can kinda be done anytime, as long as not too ...

8. Biol 189 @ Ccsn

   anakin322 replied to checkmate's topic in Nevada

   Maybe it was just me, but I really felt that both A & P courses were far harder than 189. 189 was simply an overview of biology, with very little detail. At least that's how my professor taught it. All of his tests were based mostly on his lec...

9. CSN Fall 2011 rn program

   anakin322 replied to jessel's topic in Nevada

   Chances of getting in vary depending on the semester. From what I have heard, obviously don't know for sure, a handful of people change their mind after orientation or during the summer for whateve reason. If it were me I would attend the orientati...

10. CSN Fall 2011 rn program

    anakin322 replied to jessel's topic in Nevada

    I got my call at about 2 today, but from what I've read on this forum there is no way they made all of the calls today. I had 33 points so I pretty much knew I was going to get in, was still anxious to have it official though. A friend of mine was ...

11. CSN Fall 2011 rn program

    anakin322 replied to jessel's topic in Nevada

    I was just in there a couple of days ago and she told me that, basically, we could find out tomorrow or not til the first week of May. She didn't know when the calls would be made. I vote for tomorrow!!!
