RN to BSN Online

Nursing Students Online Learning

Published

I am beginning to consider getting my BSN online. I am interested to know other people's experiences, good or bad, in this process. I would appreciate insight into programs that have worked well for others, as well as programs that were not up to par.

I am in week four of 208- trust me, it doesn't get any better. Since the classes are only 5 weeks long it makes it very hard for anything to sink in. This has been my hardest class so far. I have 209, stats, the rest of my nursing, and then 9 credits of upper division. Once I complete all of the math classes I will feel like I am on the downhill side. Are you planning on going on after you get your BSN? Earning my BSN won't "do" anything for me as far as more money or a promotion at work. I need it to go on for my MSN. I have learned a lot though but am now totally broke-LOL

If it helps ... I hear that 209 is easier. Oh well, I am like you and just want to get this math done! I have 5 more classes after 209 and stats and then I will also go on for my MSN. I am planning on teaching after I get the BSN, but it is certainly not a promotion, just the ability to do what I want to do career wise. As far as broke .... I can totally relate to that. Love UoP, but will be paying off student loans until I turn 90. Oh well, the cost of the higher learning, I guess. Good luck.

I did both MTH 208 and 209. 209 was easier, but only because the prof was rather apathetic and had briefer homework assignments, and no quizzes. He did hit us in the last week with a group project that was a team paper - great confusion trying to apply the math to something more cerebral and on a topic that wasn't covered "in class" so to speak.
