    Gangsteroids replied to bigmack78's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    Aw man, I was really hoping this school would be more competent. Was hoping to do FNP there after I get my BSN... maybe it'll be better in like 6

  2. Anyone in or finished the pre-licensure online BSN program?

    Gangsteroids replied to artonurse's topic in Western Governors University

    There is no LPN to BSN. There is RN to BSN and BSN Pre-Licensure, but your time as an LPN would most likely boost your chances of getting in. It sounds like a few people are thinking about jumping...

  3. WGU Texas Pre-Licensure BSN Program Inquiry

    Gangsteroids replied to ineedachange1's topic in Western Governors University

    You already have a BA in biology... why not just apply to an accelerated program? But if you're almost done with Excelsior then there's really no point I guess. Why waste all of that time and money...

  5. 2017 Laptop Recommendations

    Gangsteroids replied to Winry's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Agree with @Rionoir, except on the surface. Save your money if you want a laptop/tablet hybrid. There are other options that are cheaper and just as good but without the microsoft name, like the...

  8. WGU Pre-Licensure- Dallas Summer 2017

    Gangsteroids replied to wiseS16's topic in Western Governors University

    @wise Thanks! I'm feeling somewhat confident. I also am pretty sure my TEAS would have been three or four points higher if I had gotten more than 4 hours of sleep the night before... guess that's...

  9. Appeal Letter For Nursing School Rejection

    Gangsteroids replied to Mataylie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You also didn't sound "stiff" and that makes you sound human. (that's typically what I think about when people ask if they sound professional, haha) I think it's a good appeal letter. Good

  10. Books to help me get ahead?

    Gangsteroids replied to melsothavy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    For A&P, there is a medical school-oriented phys book that I found really helpful- Linda S. Constanzo Physiology. You can get a used version for like $30. This book was so, so, so helpful for...

  11. Pre-Nursing Question

    Gangsteroids replied to VickyJay94's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It all depends on what the program prepares you for, you should be able to tell based on the curriculum. You really should to speak with an adviser about the program though... I would imagine it is...

    Gangsteroids replied to PrereqTaker89's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Don't buy your textbooks new or from the bookstore (unless they have a specific edition that is edited for the school or whatever). Rent the text for the semester (usually less than $45) or buy used...

    Gangsteroids replied to tinalin1's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    Gangsteroids replied to JJC10103's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  20. Should I take Developmental Psychology online or in class?

    Gangsteroids replied to CedarGirl10's topic in General Students

    I took it online, it was easy to get through. Of course you'll have to read the book instead of listening to lectures (unless you get video lectures) but it's definitely manageable online if you can...

    Gangsteroids replied to maki122's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Gangsteroids replied to Waki3000's topic in General Students
