1. Current RN applied for FNP MS programs.

   Tiger95 replied to eternity112's topic in NP Students

   I think you have a very negative attitude about RN work and I am personally offended that you would use the word "suffer" when referring to bedside care. I have never "suffered" during a day of patient care. My patients suffer and I'm there to help t...

2. Current RN applied for FNP MS programs.

   Tiger95 replied to eternity112's topic in NP Students

   I don't think you "have" to have RN experience but from what I am finding out, it will set you apart when you are an NP and can say that you've had bedside care experience. I am an ICU nurse and will start my MSN/FNP program next month. I work with a...

3. nursing test taking skills-i have nursing knowledge but can not pass any tests

   Tiger95 replied to romaja's topic in Student Assist

   I finally found a way to take these tests and be successful. My advice...cover all answers and read the question. Make sure you understand what is being asked and then write off to the side what you know regarding the topic in the question. Underline...

4. Salary Roper, St Francis

   Tiger95 replied to NurseS123's topic in South Carolina

   I worked there for a hot 2 months in the "dream pool." Wasn't my kind of culture, considering it's not a teaching hospital. Not too many smiling faces. At anyrate, evenings $2, night shift, 11-7 3.00.

5. Entering Trident Technical College Nursing Program Spring 2012

   Tiger95 replied to Josie1865's topic in South Carolina

   I am in my 2nd semester at Trident (Nur158/159). I can tell you that there isn't much you can do AHEAD of time because the info comes at you all at one time once you start. I would tell you to make sure your home life is stable...good support system,...

   Tiger95 replied to Annaiya's topic in South Carolina

   The lady that answered the phone acted surprised by the call but I was told that it was ok. I would say to maybe wait another day or so but definitely call. Thanks! I am excited about nursing school!!

7. MUSC Accelerated BSN

   Tiger95 replied to Annaiya's topic in South Carolina

   I just called the Admissions office and they have completed reviewing all applications. Unfortunately I was not accepted, but it's ok. I'm already in the Nursing program at Trident and thought I would try MUSC. Good luck to everyone!

8. MUSC Accelerated BSN

   Tiger95 replied to Annaiya's topic in South Carolina

   I agree. She did say we would hear "by Nov.1st" so I'm sure it will be sooner. I'm so anxious!

9. MUSC Accelerated BSN

   Tiger95 replied to Annaiya's topic in South Carolina

   I was told by an admissions counselor on Tuesday that they will be sending out notifications by November 1st. They aren't even looking at the applications until Oct 4th in an effort to give more time for outstanding info to come in.

10. MUSC Accelerated BSN

    Tiger95 replied to Annaiya's topic in South Carolina

    I applied for Spring 2011. Yesterday was the application deadline. Can anyone shed some light on how long it takes before you hear anything. I know they mention a 30 day response, but is it possible to hear something sooner?

11. MUSC ACCEL NURSING PROGRAM: How did you get in?

    Tiger95 replied to Carebear28's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Good Morning All! I submitted my application last week. It is in fact only a 100 word essay. I confirmed with one of the admissions counselors. I was also told that they no longer require SAT or ACT scores. They use 3 different GPA's - 1 based on Sci...

14. New grad RNs: Do you hate nursing already?

    Tiger95 replied to OliveRN's topic in Florida

    I think the move to a new area without friends can definitley fuel the fire of depression when work is stressing you out. Continue with therapy but also MAKE the time to get out and socialize! I would tell you to look into another nursing position. I...

15. Dear future nursing students,

    Tiger95 replied to BeeFree963's topic in General Students

    I don't equate a "know-it-all" as someone who is more intelligent than me. I have a 4.0 in my classes and have worked as a Patient Care Tech and probably have some interesting experiences to share, but I only share when asked. I take my classes very ...
