Well I'll be damned. lol My cheap watch broke too, so this is timely. Turns out a $5.95 watch doesn't have much longevity.

I'm a tech girl. I have all of the things you mentioned because, well, I like them and I can afford them. That being said, I don't *need* any of them for nursing school. Not one. We aren't even allowed to have our phones in the facility during clinic...

I just started my nursing program at 35 after finishing my pre-reqs and I will be 37 when I graduate. I haven't polled the ages of my classmates, but I'd say its a healthy mix of traditional and non-traditional. The ages of your potential classmates...

According to past posts OP went to GWU, which is a respected (private, but respected) nursing school. I'm not sure what the problem is, guy. Did you fail your NCLEX and are angry at all nursing schools now? I'm really sorry you're having a tough tim...

I'm dating my husband of 13 years during school. Does that count? Actually, it's less "dating" and more "frantically trying to juggle four kids, his job, my school, and not kill each other in the process." We're romantics.

I've rented every book I possibly could from Amazon. The only reason I went elsewhere would have been because they were out of stock. They're the cheapest 95% of the time, easy to receive and return (keep the box the books came in to make it even eas...

There is a great A&P lecture series on YouTube called AnatomyGMC. I used it to help with my online A&P and it saved my life. She is really great at explaining things.

Our online class had a virtual cadaver lab. No animals.

I start my nursing program this fall and I'm wondering which planner people prefer when it comes to keeping assignments, tests, etc., together. I'm a tech girl who uses Google calendar and iCal for my personal life, but I was wondering if a tangible ...

You have to stop talking to these people. It's really is that simple. If you get in trouble for participating in spreading rumors, you'll deal with that when it comes (i.e. own up to it). In the meantime, pretend like those people don't exist and foc...

I've actually researched this quite a bit. There are listings for nurses at various Disney properties on the Disney Careers website. They generally require a BSN and at least two years experience. I have scoured the internet for forum posts of people...

Mine was on the Evolve site immediately (actually, I don't know that for sure, but it was on there when I checked 15 minutes after I'd taken the test).

It's true and it's why so many nursing schools have high GPA requirements to get in.

Ok, I just took a quick glance at your other posts and you have had "issues" with several professors. Judging by that and the irrational way you responded to Rocknurse, I'm thinking it's a you problem.

So far you've spoken very vaguely about "standards" and "betrayal," but you have yet to give specific examples of how this instructor is making your life so difficult. If you do go to the dean, you may want to come up with something a little more co...

So.....do it her way?

Sometimes you needs to switch learning styles. Look up A&P lectures on YouTube (I like AnatomyGMC) Read the PowerPoints and rewrite them in your own words. You said that you're good on lab, but not lecture. To me, lecture is less memorization and...

Yeah I'm with you two. I have four kids (all with one activity or another at any given time) and a husband who works a ridiculous schedule. I have a 4.0 in all of my BSN pre-reqs (starting the nursing program this fall). I'm just saying that it's pos...

It really depends on how competitive the programs are in your area. For instance, the program I was accepted to was accepted to (public, 4-year college) is very competitive. The lowest GPA they accepted last semester was a 3.5. There is a private, no...

A&P is a hard course. Add in a professor that could be equally hard and it might not turn out well for you. What are the reviews saying? I like to gauge those reviews based on the context. Did they write a bad review because they didn't put in th...

I agree with this. I took everything but stats online. Sociology was an easy class for me. We had quizzes based on the reading and a couple essays that we had to write. I breezed by with an A.
