1. Possible relocation. questions about Dallas area

   TraciLD replied to grahamd01's topic in Texas

   Thank you. They still say BSN preferred on their job site but I figured it was probably more of a requirement than preference.

2. Possible relocation. questions about Dallas area

   TraciLD replied to grahamd01's topic in Texas

   Not.Done.Yet, do you know if Forest Park will hire an ADN graduate? I am very interested in their facilities but don't know if they have gone the BSN only route. I'm torn between doing a BSN or ADN program. I will be application ready for the ADN ...

   TraciLD replied to ambrekai's topic in Texas

   Yes, it is a bummer. Sorry I hope to take Patho in Fall 2013 after I apply for Spring admission. Good luck to you.

4. TWU Spring 2013 Applicants!

   TraciLD replied to ambrekai's topic in Texas

   Sandra, I don't think you can apply to the nursing program until you have completed the courses which means you won't be eligible to apply for Fall 2013 since the application deadline will be Jan/Feb. Someone correct me if I an wrong. I am taking A...

5. Microbiology and anatomy 2 is it smart to take at the same time in one semester

   TraciLD replied to foxycats's topic in Pre-Nursing

   My school doesn't even let you take them together. A&PII is a prereq for Microbiology. Obviously this rule doesn't apply to you but I wouldn't advise taking them together.

7. What field of nursing are you interested into going into?

   TraciLD replied to CNA1991's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Highly interested in OR/Surgery. I am also interested in possibly moving into nursing education at some point as well.

8. Collin County Community College

   TraciLD replied to txranchgirl's topic in Texas

   Doubtful they take where you took your classes into consideration. Especially if you are asking a community college to say your classes are better than a community college. I don't think they look at all your classes if they are not applicable to t...

9. Prerequisites Question

   TraciLD replied to Changeup's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Honestly I don't think there is a way around the requirement. All the schools in my area require A&P and Micro to be taken within the past 5 years. My chemistry from undergrad is still accepted though and that was well over 5 years ago. I thin...

10. How long did it take you to complete your prerequisites?

    TraciLD replied to julibyrd's topic in Pre-Nursing

    First off, congratulations on taking that first step. I'm 40 and am taking my prerequisites now as well so I know how daunting it can be. I believe you were given good advice to take your prereqs one at a time to maximize your GPA. It is so competiti...

11. Collin College spring 2012 Hopefuls

    TraciLD replied to cdrouin89's topic in Texas

    I think you can still apply with Micro in progress (BIO 2421). They go on a point system to admit though so if you apply while talking Micro you give up one point. If you have all A's in your other prereqs and do well on your PSB though you should ...
