  1. BSN straight to NP or gain work experience

    Simplistic replied to clint.parsch's topic in General Nursing

    AMEN.

  2. During pre requisites

    Simplistic replied to seed1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This depends on your school! One of the schools I got accepted to, started nursing courses during their 1st

  3. BSN straight to NP or gain work experience

    Simplistic replied to clint.parsch's topic in General Nursing

    The key word in your argument is "EXPERIENCED RN". A brand new NP that goes straight through school and finishes at age 23-24, will make money then you do at 40. End of

  4. Prerequisite courses

    Simplistic replied to Tasiaboyd28's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would take general biology, statistics, english and introductory

  5. BSN straight to NP or gain work experience

    Simplistic replied to clint.parsch's topic in General Nursing

    Straight to NP.

  6. Pharm., Fundamentals, and 2 sciences

    Simplistic replied to I think I can...'s topic in General Students

    I once took fundamentals, anatomy and physiology, child development and an english class in one semester. I studied roughly 4-5 hours a day that semester. But that was NOTHING compared to when i took...

  7. Nursing School Requiring a 85% test average?

    Simplistic replied to OsceanSN2018's topic in General Students

    85 is a really high bar to set.. Sounds like a weed out class to

  8. Not a CNA, LPN, CMA, etc.

    Simplistic replied to RSP.SN's topic in General Students

    Are you talking to me? If you have any questions just

  9. Not a CNA, LPN, CMA, etc.

    Simplistic replied to RSP.SN's topic in General Students

    I went into nursing school straight out of high school, and did not obtain my CNA. My first couple of clinical days were a learning experience because I had to learn how to do simple things like take...

  10. Going from Community College and transferring to get a BSN?

    Simplistic replied to Aa1Bb2Cc3's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You can do either one. When choosing a school, consider their NCLEX pass rates and cost. Going straight to BSN would probably be faster

  11. Am I On The Right Path?

    Simplistic replied to VictoriaxB's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There are no nursing schools that have a "critical care specialty". When youre in nursing school, you go through different rotations (pediatrics, OB, med/surg.. and so on). Once you graduate from...

  12. Concerns About Courseload While Working Full-Time

    Simplistic replied to areFrndsElctrc's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If those are the only 2 classes you would take in a semester, then I would go for it. Just make sure you manage your time

  13. Specialization: When to Decide?

    Simplistic replied to Alrewolf's topic in General Students

    I think youre looking too far into this. This isnt med school where you have to choose a specialization DURING your schooling. I would advise you to just get through school, and see which specialty...

  14. Deciding between nursing school and pre-med and medical school?

    Simplistic replied to renae0404's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I honestly did. The biggest deterrent was that med school just takes sooo long to complete. Now, on the path Im going on, I will be a nurse at 20 and a nurse practitioner at around

  15. Can I still become a nurse with a low GPA?

    Simplistic replied to JAlan95's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Are you willing to relocate? I know a school that would 100% accept

  16. Pre-req's: A & P I and II classes

    Simplistic replied to Merry1517's topic in General Students

    At the end of the day, youre still going to have to review the material anyway before you enter a nursing

  17. Think I failed-nclex RN 85ish questions

    Simplistic replied to michellee1's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Oh please.. You obviously

  18. I got in!

    Simplistic replied to Icupkake93's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The number 1 piece of advice I can give you, is to STOP listening to what other people say. Your post is just filled with what OTHER people are saying. Focus on yourself. Yes, nursing school is HARD...

  19. Didn't do to hot on my first exam.

    Simplistic replied to NYCNative21's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It is a bad start.. But theres nothing you can really do at this point unless you decide to withdraw from the class and take it again next semester. Just keep your head up and study harder for the...

  20. Military Wife- ADN Schools

    Simplistic replied to xiahki's topic in General Students

    Getting your ADN will take AT LEAST 2 years. No such thing as a quick

  21. Hello, Incoming freshman for fall

    Simplistic replied to Jimmydr50's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That sounds like a normal schedule, though Im not quite sure what "critical inquiry" is. Recitation is a smaller version of your class, where you get the opportunity to go over the material again and...

  22. Straight to FNP

    Simplistic replied to jodyjcj's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Go for your FNP right away. Think about all the extra money you would be making if you just jump straight in. Sure, experience is valuable but at the end of the day, the responsibilities of a NP vs a...

  23. Learning Sign Language?

    Simplistic replied to Jmpickett044's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I mean it certainly wouldn't hurt you.. However learning a new language is a huge time commitment.. And time is precious in nursing

  24. Help for the Hesi leadership and management exam

    Simplistic replied to robertfl's topic in General Students

    Keep doing what youre doing.. Questions are a great way to grasp the material. It will all be over

  25. Advising basically told me I cannot be a nurse. Is there anything I can do?

    Simplistic replied to vkhodakevich's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Why dont you look at other schools in your area? Or become an lpn
