   For anybody considering Liberty University Online, I just talked with them on the phone. You have to apply to the school first, but the $50 application fee is waived if you apply over the phone. Plus, the 8 week options start in January, March, May...

2. Just finished my first semester. Ask me anything.

   ryanblakdeth replied to MeTheRN's topic in SRNA

   It doesn't matter when you take the GREs. I would recommend graduating and taking the NCLEX first. If you handle stress well, have a good memory, and don't mind studying all day, then take the GRE beforehand. Why not wait until after the NCLEX so...

   for the nutrition test - complete and memorize the study guides for each chapter. All of the questions come directly from those.

4. Nutrition...is it as much work as the nursing classes?

   ryanblakdeth replied to boyfactory's topic in Ohio University

   Yes, sorry, I shouldn't imply that it's an easy 100%. The test was a lot easier after completing the study guides. There is absolutely no reason whatsoever to read the chapters or go on Cengage. That is why I consider it a joke. Being an overach...

5. Nutrition...is it as much work as the nursing classes?

   ryanblakdeth replied to boyfactory's topic in Ohio University

   Glad I took deltaroxxy2's advice. Only read the study guides at the end of the chapter. More specifically, memorize the sample test questions and the tables where you have to match the terms with their definitions. If you do that, easy 100%. I thi...

6. Nutrition...is it as much work as the nursing classes?

   ryanblakdeth replied to boyfactory's topic in Ohio University

   So for the tests - we should memorize the study guide. does this mean that we study ONLY the sample test at the back of each chapter, or should we study the crossword puzzles, matching terms, short answer questions, etc., too?

7. Questions for extracurricular tasks for CRNA school

   ryanblakdeth replied to ryanblakdeth's topic in SRNA

   There is a chance that I could hear from Pitt before the classes start. I will hear from York College on the first day of classes. So, obviously, if I get accepted there (or hear from Pitt), I am dropping them. However, if I don't get accepted, I'...

   Hello FLMSRN, I plan on taking chemistry II (pre-req at my community college for organic chem), organic chem, pharmacology (need it for a nearby school), and if necessary, an online advanced pharmacology and/or advanced physiology course. Not sure i...

10. Questions for extracurricular tasks for CRNA school

    ryanblakdeth posted a topic in SRNA

    Hello all, I realize that this is a great source for feedback for potential CRNA students so I'm looking to see what others think. I earned a 3.5 GPA in my previous bachelor's degree - didn't study at all, could have easily made it 4.0 but I didn't c...

11. Nutrition Fall 3 Session

    ryanblakdeth replied to tinkerbell24's topic in Ohio University

    Hello all, I am currently in NUTR 1000 as well. Everybody seems to think it takes less time, but I am actually spending more time on studying the chapters. I spent two days, read the chapters, took the tests in the study guide, took the tests on th...

13. Anyone applied to University of Pittsburgh for 2013

    ryanblakdeth replied to belgium's topic in SRNA

    Hey, No, I talked to one coworker on Friday who still didn't hear anything from Pitt. I'll find out later this week if either of them have heard anything. I know that for most people this is a pretty stressful experience, but it really does not bot...
