  2. To become an OR Nurse...

    Well thank u for all your honesty. I will work on my pre reqs for a bsn and do my adn first. Really I wanted to know if doing the surgical tech would at least get me in and maybe help with that whole networking thing. The nurses I know are primarily ...
  3. To become an OR Nurse...

    Thank you for all the advice. I will go ahead and call some HR's come Monday. Due to my childrens needs I am going for a slower pace to get to nursing school just because my son really needs me.
  4. To become an OR Nurse...

    Btw thank you for replying :)
  5. To become an OR Nurse...

    I live in San Diego so I know it is extremely competitive out here especially for new nurses. That is why I was wondering if becoming a surgical tech first might help give me some experience that would get me in somewhere once I become an RN. From wh...
  6. To become an OR Nurse...

    In order to become an OR nurse do I need a bsn or is an adn ok? I am barely in my 3rd semester of pre reqs at a cc and would like to know which way to go. I was thinking of doing the surgical tech program and working in that field for a couple of yea...
  7. Pre Nursing with cosmetic medical condition?

    I am blind in my left eye and have now had a prosthetic for almost 11 years. I totally get being self conscious. Children are always asking me what is wrong with my eye, but by now it is just a good conversation starter. I was afraid it would keep me...

  9. RN Majoring, HELP

    you could do which ever is more convenient for you. I will be taking all pre-reqs including those needed to transfer at my cc and then applying to 3 different nursing programs at the nearest cc's. After that I'll be applying a UC or private school or...
  10. I say go for it. Over here in San Diego it is a pre req and I imagine they did that for a reason. I know someone who used it to volunteer at a hospital which will give him points.
  11. Biology 189

    I am sure you will do great . I am also taking the class and just from looking through the text it sounds awesome. Now sometimes it comes down to the professor. Did you check yours (ratemyprofessor.com) before enrolling in the class?
  12. Biology 189

    What is Biol 189 in your school? I know that each cc has a different number for their classes even though it is all the same pre reqs.
  13. Retake sciences if possible and take a teas prep class before taking the test. I am just getting started but i do know that nursing is my passion and if I have to spend $$$ on buying all kinds of different books to help me and take an extra class or ...
  14. Taking a break for math

    Thank you for all the support. It's reassuring to know that I am amongst many dreaming of a nursing career that have dealt with at least a few issues in math. I remember being in pre algebra in 7th grade but never liked word problems. I will be onlin...
  15. Too much on my plate?

    I am not sure of your family situation but if you have no children it seems very possible. Before you start shadowing maybe try the first few weeks and see how well you feel. It think anything is possible when you really want something. Stay on top o...
