1. I've changed my major

   jaysma posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

   I finished my pre-reqs last semester and was signed up for A&P 1 and 2 this summer with plans of applying for the ADN program in July. I've been dreading A&P's and quite frankly dreading the nursing program. I've realized that I'm just really...

5. Anyone getting ready for a chemistry final?

   jaysma replied to FNPhopeful's topic in Pre-Nursing

   My Intro to Chem final is 5/16. We had our last exam Thursday, have 2 more classes (new material!) and then the final. Our instructor is great though. He lets us use a 3x5 index card for a "cheat sheet" for the exams and is going to let us have 4 ind...

6. Service for Research Paper

   jaysma replied to WannaBeMaleRN's topic in Pre-Nursing

   My college does too. My lit. instructor said that it was an automatic F for the semester if the program detected plagarism and she verified it.

7. What happens if you dont get in?????

   jaysma replied to Dreamer528's topic in Pre-Nursing

   At my school there is no wait list. You keep reapplying. They have a day (starts in spring) & evening (starts in fall) program. You have to have pre-req's and a 2.0 GPA to apply, but after that acceptance is totally based on NLN scores. I'm apply...

8. Anyone out there NOT good at math but aced Chem?

   jaysma replied to FNPhopeful's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I'm the opposite. I'm in College Algebra with an A and have made A's in all math courses leading up to this point. I'm also taking Intro to Chemistry this semester and am trying to hold onto a B (84%). The conversions are just not clicking with me ....

9. Summer classes or take time off to study for NLN?

   jaysma posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

   I'll be taking my NLN test the end of July and was planning on taking A&P 1 + 2 this summer. They're co-req's so I can apply in July without having taken them, but that means if I get in I'll have them along with my nursing courses. I've been loo...

    No special purchases here. I'm going to enjoy the feeling of being able to save more $ after paying bills.

12. How many applicants are you "competing" against?

    jaysma posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

    At my small town school they test twice a year (1 day program & 1 evening). Acceptance into the nursing program is all based on your NLN score. The day program for this fall had their NLN test this past weekend and there were 104 people that test...

13. A&P 1 & 2 during the summer, good or bad idea?

    jaysma replied to jaysma's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Thanks for the responses :) I'm still debating it. I wouldn't be taking them together (impossible to do anyway). I would only have one class at a time to focus on and I don't work outside the home (I'm a SAHM of a 4 yr old). I take my NLN test in Jul...

14. Where is everyone from?

    jaysma replied to needhelptomakeit's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I'm 31, from southeast MO and am a SAHM of a 3 yr old. I'm finishing up my pre-reqs in order to apply this summer for the spring 07 ADN program. I started college fresh out of HS, did horribly, & now that I have my head on straight (a family will...
