1. What If I don't get into a nursing program?

   ConfusedSoul94 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

   I'm not looking for a definite answer, but I nearly had a panic attack today. I changed my major to Pre-nursing last semester and have been trying to ensure I get my GPA up to somewhat of a decent one before applying to programs next year. But I real...

2. Too FAT to be a nurse?

   ConfusedSoul94 replied to Prtar1's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Only reason I'm bringing this back to life is because I actually googled this question. I'm big too and I plan to lose it but I was scared I'm too "fat" to be a nurse but hey, these comments made me feel better. Btw: There are fat doctors. My grandmo...

3. Should I Give Up?

   ConfusedSoul94 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

   I've asked this question before, but I wanted to update. I am working toward a pre-nursing track at my school with the hopes of applying for a position in the nursing program in Spring '15. I haven't started any pre-reqs aside 2 gen chem classes. How...

4. Applying to Nursing Programs In Canada

   When applying for Undergrad, i was looking at British Columbia, but I'm not sure as of now. I looked at the tuition rates and they are quite high. Thank you.

5. Applying to Nursing Programs In Canada

   ConfusedSoul94 replied to ConfusedSoul94's topic in International

   I was aware that I'd probably have to return home and do other things to become a citizen of Canada. I want to get a feel for the country. If I have to complete the pre-reqs up there before applying, then I'd be better off for sure here.

6. Applying to Nursing Programs In Canada

   ConfusedSoul94 posted a topic in International

   I'm a student at a US university and I'm trying to get my GPA up in time to apply for nursing programs next year. I really would hope to get into my school's program since I really don't want to have to leave after being here for 2 years. However, i ...

7. Gen chem 2...so lost!

   ConfusedSoul94 replied to futurenurse0989's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Use all the free resources out there. I've found science professors to be very unhelpful, especially in lectures. What I'd recommend is finding tutoring, hopefully for free. I don't know if you're back in school or in school your first time around, b...

8. Suitable Pediatric Nurse

   ConfusedSoul94 replied to ConfusedSoul94's topic in Pediatric

   Poppycat-Yeah, I hate when people tell me "No, it doesn't hurt" just for it to hurt. If they ask, I'd certainly say "Well, for me it doesn't hurt that much" or tell them that the pain will be very temporary (assuming it is). I don't like lying to chi...

9. Suitable Pediatric Nurse

   ConfusedSoul94 posted a topic in Pediatric

   I'm weighing my options of becoming a nurse eventually and if I do plan to go this route (which I do think I will because it feels much better than anything else I've thought of), I'd want to be a pediatric nurse. Do you all have any qualities that y...

10. How to get into Nursing School

    ConfusedSoul94 replied to LexannLay's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Don 1984 has it right. My advisor also told me to look at other schools' nursing programs as you're not promised a seat (unless you were admitted into such a program that did promise you one) and you need to be prepared with other options. The best t...

11. MEN, dont come into nursing

    ConfusedSoul94 replied to DUDERNGUY's topic in Men

    Did you not do Clinicals and such to get a feel for the job? I'd understand if this were a forum on business, science, etc where you get a degree before really being able to scope the field out (Then again, internships exist), but if you graduated la...

12. Switching to a Nursing Major

    ConfusedSoul94 replied to ConfusedSoul94's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. Organic Chemistry isn't "technically" needed. It's an alternative for those who might have taken it. Anatomy and Physiology I and II are moreso needed.

13. Switching to a Nursing Major

    ConfusedSoul94 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

    Hi all. This is my first time posting and I hope to get replies. I'm on the verge of a break down and would love HONEST answers. I'm a sophomore in college. I was on the track to actually be able to graduate in 3ish years with a degree in Biology. H...
