Thank you SO much for your replies!! Im going to share this information with my family so we can brainstorm using this as a jumping-off point. We are exploring any and all options. thanks again!

Hi, I'm a nurse in NY and I'm trying to help my parents look at nursing homes from afar for my grandmother in IL who has rapidly advancing dementia but no other medical issues other than mild osteoporosis. She's eligible for VA benefits so we...

Absolutely; just send me a PM though because we're not supposed to post professor's names on here.

Looks good! I had the exact same grades in the first four classes you listed. I think you are definitely still competitive in that respect. I also know someone who got a C in Bio 425 and still got into the program, so one C doesn't kill your chances....

CHE 121 might as well be a prereq because it unlocks BIO 425. I tried taking it as a hybrid course but withdrew (I was doing horribly)and took it over the summer for an A. I'm heading into my third semester in the nursing program. If you want to shar...

subscribed and filled out the form! thanks :)

It's on this site if you click on "nursing student". A good place to post questions if you need help with assignments or concepts; I've been reading them just to get a feel for the kinds of things we'll be doing

Hey guys! I posted in the Nursing Student Assistance Forum, but just wondering if anyone has found any more good practice websites? Also, does anyone know if the exam will be multiple choice?

Hi everyone, I'm taking the math competency exam at BMCC soon. I just wanted to know if anyone knows any good websites besides RegisteredNurseRN.com for practice problems since I've already done all of the ones our professor posted and the ones in...

I agree with previous commenters; A&P is a lot of work but you CAN do it. I don't think anyone has ever taken that course without feeling overwhelmed at some point. But using various study aids, constantly rewriting and re-reading your notes, col...

We can retake the practice exams as many times as needed which is awesome. I think I've done it three or four times now, waiting a couple days inbetween so I know I'm not just memorizing the answers lol. The one with the part a&b is stumping me t...

I got an A in Anatomy I and an A- in Anatomy II. I did this by attending almost every office hour session that my professor offered, watching Crash Course YouTube videos, going on websites meant for homeschooling kids to use (these are excellent beca...

Thanks @NC7586; I'll take a look in the catalog

Where did you find them on the Elsevier site? I'm still finishing the reading too.

No problem @ninjax! I'm going tomorrow for the drug test. Does anyone know where to access the videos we are required to watch? I have activated my account for the Elsevier software package but I don't see any videos in that. The clinical nursing ski...

Hey there! Yup $160. But that includes the drug test so I'm not sure if insurance would pick up the cost. My insurance did cover all the vaccines and the physical though.

Thanks! I was looking in the wrong place lol

I got the same call. At this point I'm not doing anything until orientation smh.

In the continuing ed dept? There aren't any scheduled right now so I will wait until they post some. After I posted my comment I saw that it costs $80 elsewhere (gulp)!

FYI everyone I just spoke to someone at the nursing department (because when I logged onto the castle branch site I noticed that "drug test" is listed as part of the $160 package but also on a separate sheet in our packets for $34). She said that whe...

Ugh seriously? I'm still trying to line up all the vaccinations. Background check/drug test is next. I want everything done before July if possible.

The guy working in the bmcc bookstore told me that most students wait until after orientation to buy the books. He also didn't have a lot of them in stock yet but said they're going to be arriving in July.

@JC1533 congrats!!!!!!

Congrats!! Everyone have fun celebrating this weekend. I'm picking up my packet Tuesday morning at 10am :)

Congratulations!!
