  1. Am I Smart Enough?

    My sister was just asking me the same question because she's struggling in her math class as well and my advice was , from what I've heard from actual nurses, you don't need to be a mathematician ,...
  2. Studying tips

    So this is my first time taking it and the semester is over on the 12th, I currently have a 79%. Still haven't mastered how to do well on the lab practicals, I'm still at a 69 but, I have an A in...
  3. Nursing Grading Scale

    Well, now looking it from this perspective, the scale does make sense.
  4. Ohio CE requirement for endorsement application

    Just out of curiosity, why are you relocating to OH. (I live in OH lol) but I've always heard CT is one of the best places to live and that their nurses get paid very well. I actually plan to visit...
  5. Am I too small to be a nurse?

    Lol her comment was unnecessary, especially if she cleared your physical, just look around; a majority of women in this generation are petite women. Especially in the health
  6. best option for nursing/healthcare

    I would choose your first option. People really underestimate smaller Nursing Programs and Community Colleges for so many reasons but if they knew how much money they would be saving to take identical...
  7. Need help with degree plan!

    You're right an Associates of the Arts and an Associates of the Sciences in Nursing are two separate degrees. Your adviser shouldn't have mentioned the the arts degree because it has nothing to do...
  8. Most schools require them to be no more than 10 years old but maybe the more selective schools have stricter guidelines so it can
  9. Taking A&P 1 and Intro to Chem together?

    My friend is doing the same thing and I think she's handling it somewhat well. But, I personally would advise against it only because the sciences also have labs which is almost like a second class....
  10. Trouble with A&P I

    So the fourth week of class is starting tomorrow and I'm feeling discouraged. I got a D on my first exam and a B on my first practical. There's lab and a class, and they're both completely separate...
  11. Trouble with A&P I

    Thanks!! Actually in my opinion, the lab seems much more easier than the lecture part of the course. I found a lot of online practice models to use that really help me remember. I'm having a lot more...

    Thanks! Apps will be really helpful for me , I'm always on my
  13. Trouble with A&P I

    I've already been accepted. Our program here isn't that competitive. Aside from Biochem, you complete the remaining science courses during the program. And I usually am a high achiever but I've never...
  14. Well, who doesn't want to make more money? Almost all of my classmates have the same goal to transition into a graduate program after getting their license. I personally just want to stick with being...
  15. I've been accepted into the Spring 2018 Nursing program and my classes start in January so I have this fall semester off but, I wanted to graduate sooner so I'm taking A&P 1 right now. I never...
  16. Real shortage of nurses or bogus?

    In my area there is a shortage, in fact in the next 4 years, the shortage will double. There's a rapid growing elderly population and they outweigh younger population so generally, It does make sense...
  17. really?
  18. Men in Nursing...

    Lol why did you include your height and weight? I do agree a little with feeling like a fish out of water though, but I'm still a nursing student. All of my classes primarily consists of soccer moms...

  21. I think you need to take a break from testing for a few months. I've always heard that the Kaplan review books are the best and have similar questions to the actual test. I've also heard the NCLEX...
  22. Need advice about school

    Based on your situation, I'd suggest avoiding a for profit school. It seems money is the constant issue for you. Going to a for profit school will hurt your financially in the long run due to the...
  23. So I just took my HESI Exam and I passed with a 90%!!!! I studied for 2 days and the standard review book was helpful. The test was incredibly simple, the only section that seemed a little tricky is...
  24. First day of A&P I

    I'm excited to start A&P I tomorrow. I hope it is not nearly as difficult as I heard it was. I've already reviewed the syllabus and it looks like we'll be covering a lot! The class also includes a...
  25. First day of A&P I

    Well I had my first day yesterday and it DOES seem challenging, I was in shock when she showed us how are quizzes would look for lab. But, I'm determined, I paid for the class, and the professor seems...
