2. What to do-BSN or job first?

   meginnurse posted a topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

   I just started ADN and am looking towards BSN. I have a BA so BSN would take less time. I'm wondering if after graduation if it's better to immediately continue to the BSN or start interviewing for...

3. Endocrine System

   meginnurse replied to smparedes23's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   Watch or listen to the mentioned videos over and over. It's about repetition and sometimes hearing the same material presented in different ways helps you better understand it. I also like AK Lectures...

4. Need help with degree plan!

   meginnurse replied to Amber98's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   Yes that's the important question. Each program has it's own prereqs and they can vary depending on the school. This also applies to BSN programs so, even if you think you know the BSN program you...

5. Taking A&P 1 and Intro to Chem together?

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

   Have you taken biology in high school? Yes it's doable but if the answer is 'no' I wouldn't advise that course load. Heavy and intense and, since it's your freshman year, get adjusted to college life...

6. For absn private school students. How do you guys take out loans

   meginnurse replied to Big_Mike's topic in General Students

   Since absn programs are quite expensive, have you thought about going a different route? Like getting the ADN first and then bridging with a BSN-RN online program? You may finish a little later, or...

7. Lifespan without Psych 101

   meginnurse replied to secondtimer14's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   I took these two courses together. There was a lot of overlap between them and I did not see the purpose of PSY100 if human growth and development is required. My program requires both so I had to...

8. Nursing school and working a 9-6

   meginnurse replied to joymarie_'s topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   Wow! I commend you! I worked very little when taking prereqs. I don't think I could really grasp Micro/AP info while working. Please post how it goes. Good

9. Hybrid biology classes

   meginnurse replied to Blayton's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   I took APII as a hybrid class. I really liked it, especially because I felt like API was a self-teaching experience. Since it's a lot of memorization, you can do that at home and bring any questions...

10. Which program

    meginnurse replied to Pdev's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes. This is the route I'm taking as well after researching the BSN programs. It's going to save a lot of money and I'll be able to start my ADN program sooner since it requires less prereqs than the...

11. I don't have the pre requisites to get into university for nursing

    meginnurse replied to Janine94's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Agreed! I would take the prerequisite courses that would cost the least and go from there. Remember you're still young...even at 29 in case it doesn't work out. I am going into my second career at 53...

12. Intro to Bio and A&P1

    meginnurse replied to dahliadiaz11's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I wouldn't waste the money to take bio unless it's needed. I agree with the above post to watch youtube vids to familiarize yourself with the subject. It's the one thing that saved me when I took API....

13. Terrified!!!

    meginnurse replied to Orchid535353's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi, I am also 53 and will begin my ADN program in January. I took a year to complete the necessary prerequisite courses and went for it! I will be 55 when I graduate and plan on working for at least...
