  1. Passed Statistics with an A-

    Congrats! That was my least-favorite pre-req!!! I also go an A, only because my professor spoon-fed us what we needed for the tests, I don't understand the concepts at all!
  2. Left Nursing After 3 Months and Couldn't Be Happier!

    Well Sweetgeorgia, I sincerely hope teaching will be better for you than it was for me. I'm quitting teaching after 5 years to go into an ABSN program. I also had 12 hours days, only I worked them 5 days a week (parent meetings, planning, creating ma...
  3. Just graduated from LPN, how soon should I start RN bridge?

    Why does a bridge cost 30K? That's crazy. SCF in Bradenton will have a weekend bridge starting soon, and I'm sure it won't cost 30K. I can't imagine spenting a total of 55K on an associate's degree. I hope you find a better option.
  4. Professionals or "workers"

    These posts are depressing to me. I'm a pre-nursing student, and on leave from my teaching job. You guys have all the same complaints about nursing as I do about teaching, and I was hoping nursing was a better profession. We teachers may have a unio...
  5. Should Healthcare Be Funded As A Basic Human Right?

    Our current system is idiotic, penny-wise and pound foolish. I am an unemployed, uninsured pre-nursing student. I could get COBRA from my old job at a cost of $545 a month. Since I am unemployed, I cannot pay that. I have applied for dozens of jobs, ...
  6. University of Maine at Fort Kent

    I don't have a reply for you, but I'm thinking of applying there. How is the program? Would you mind sharing your stats? Did you take all of the recommended pre-reqs?
  7. Saying I'm Sorry

    Thanks GrnTea, I did end up here by mistake, through that link on the side. I didn't even know there was a spirituality board.
  8. Saying I'm Sorry

    I'm not an athiest, funny how you all assumed that though. I guess one must be an athiest if one doesn't believe in Christ. I just object to "all strength comes from Christ."
  9. Saying I'm Sorry

    I really wish you Christians would put some type of disclaimer on your posts that talk about God and Jesus. Sometimes I feel like this is Christiannurses.com. It's unwelcoming to read how I'm weak since I don't believe in Christ (and that's where str...
  10. Nasty Parents and This Opportunity to Vent

    Jolie: how can you state that children with lice shouldn't be sent home? Don't you think they will spread lice in the classroom through hugging, sharing hairbrushes, lice getting on the carpet and crawling on other students, etc?
  11. Obesity and Nursing

    What determines "healthy"? A good BMI? I am obese on my bmi, but I am obese due to lean muscle mass (133 pounds of it to be exact!). Being able to run a marathon? There are plenty of skinny people who couldn't keep up with me on a treadmill. I say st...
  12. Moving to FL--Stuart or Bradenton area?

    Bradenton is crime-infested and gang-infested. Sarasota is much nicer and safer. Check city-data.com for the cities you want to move to. It has great information and message boards about each town. Good luck on your move.
  13. It totally depends on your school. One school I looked at wrote on their website that they would not consider applicants with a "pattern of W's" on their transcript. Two others I'm applying to will not take re-takes, so your first grade stands. Some ...
  14. Taking A&P I and Nutrition

    Do you have to take nutrition now? I'm taking it with A&P 2, and it's a breeze since it basically reviews everything (minus body parts) from A&P 1 and some horomone stuff we just did in A&P 2. I don't have to study for it at all, and I'm...
  15. College Algebra ughh

    Where do you get that 10,000 number? I'm sure I haven't done my stats or algebra problems 10,000 times, and I learned the formulas.
