  1. Side jobs...

    There is an online call center called LiveOps. They contract for many different companies, like AAA, Intuit (TurboTax), Honk (Roadside Assistance), Omaha Steaks, and many many others. Basically you're either a salesperson or a customer service agent ...
  2. Microbiology is kicking my butt...

    Hey all, I am here seeking some serious advice for my Microbiology class. Heres some background on me: I have always been a good student. I have a 3.78 gpa in my prerequisites, with micro being one of the last ones to complete. I took both a&p cl...
  3. Microbiology is kicking my butt...

    Hey all! Thanks for all of the advice. I have started to find my groove with studying (thanks Quizlet) and I have seriously turned my grade around. I'm proud to say that I now have an 87 in the class (when I made this post, I was barely holding onto ...
  4. MMR Immunity (or not)

    Yes! If you're not sure, ask!! At my school, there is one person whose title is "Clinical Admissions Coordinator" and she is the go-to person for all Allied Health majors for the vaccinations, clinical ID badge forms, etc-basically everything you hav...
  5. MMR Immunity (or not)

    I was in the same situation, except it was only my Measles that was negative. I was technically still meeting their requirements because I had a 2 dose series when I was a baby, but I felt better about getting another booster. However, weirdly, we're...
  6. After 11 Years, I Finally Passed the TEAS!

    Congratulations! I just finished my prerequisites and didn't do nearly that good, that's an amazing score! I got into an ADN program that starts in January with something like an 85% on my TEAS. And my advisor said that I had one of the highest TEAS ...
  7. Microbiology is kicking my butt...

    Thank you soooo much for the tip, I'll definitely check him out :)
  8. Any RNs considering medical school?

    Perhaps your post would have been better received if you focused more on why you feel being a doctor is a better profession for you than demeaning nurses and your fellow nursing students. A "better than thou" attitude is never the way to approach som...
  9. I got in!!!!! HGTC Spring 2019

    OMG we might be classmates! Which school are you leaning towards?
  10. I got in!!!!! HGTC Spring 2019

    I notice you're in South Carolina too, what school are you going to?

  12. Is LVN not enough for you!

    Ummmmm... what?? I'm so confused, I don't even know what to say... Do you really think that RNs are millionaires? I come from a family of nurses and we've always lived modestly. Sometimes we struggled. Actually, quite often we were paycheck to paych...
  13. A&P 1 and 2 in 8 Weeks??

    I think it takes a very specific type of student to do a 5 week class. For me personally, it was perfect. I go an A in the first class and a B in the second.
  14. A&P 1 and 2 in 8 Weeks??

    So, in order to avoid taking the TEAS test, I decided to take all of my prereqs before starting the nursing program at my local community college. My academic advisor recommended that I take both Anatomy classes this summer. This means that each clas...
  15. Walmart cashiers wearing gloves?

    Current Walmart Cashier here, a lot of my coworkers wear gloves because meat (especially chicken) tends to leak and probably about 85% of people don't put their meat into bags. If some of those lovely chicken juices get on your hands, you're stuck ri...
  16. What can I do besides nursing?

    Hey there! I'm just a nursing student, but I live very near to you and I read your story in the news a few years back. I'm so sorry for what happened, but is there a possibility you could retake Biology 101 and apply for graduation and then sit for t...
  17. A&P 1 and 2 in 8 Weeks??

    So, I just finished out A&P 1 with a 93! I start A&P 2 on Monday and I hope to get another A in that class as well. Wish me luck :)
  18. A and P over Summer?

    I'm taking A&P 1&2 this summer and it really does depend on what kind of student you are. I am a VERY fast learner and just finished A&P 1 with a solid 93. However, I had a classmate that tried her best, but just couldn't do it and the pr...
  19. Loans for 2nd Degree

    That wasn't my understanding from my financial aid counselor, but I'm a first degree student, so I could be wrong. Definitely check with your financial aid counselor.
  20. Loans for 2nd Degree

    Federal loans! As a second degree student, you should be an independent student, which qualifies you for up to about 10k per year, I believe. You just need to fill out FASFA. Anything left over, you can try to finance yourself through scholarships-th...
  21. I need help choosing courses!

    Yes, a BSN is a university level program, so taking some college courses in high school will look very good on your application to that university. If you go on College Board's website, they have a tool that you can search for schools you may want to...
  22. I need help choosing courses!

    It seems as if something was lost in communication somewhere. I took enough AP and dual enrollment in high school to the point that I started college as a sophomore and I have had no problems with getting into the programs of my choice. If anything, ...
  23. A&P 1 and 2 in 8 Weeks??

    Thanks Wiggly! I have thoroughly been enjoying the class and I have been taking it upon myself to go deeper into the textbook than what I absolutely need to know for the tests. Not only does this benefit me on the tests because her questions seem so ...
  24. A&P 1 and 2 in 8 Weeks??

    Oh and to address the people that thought that the instructor would have to cut out a lot of stuff to make the classes fit into this short of a time frame, she actually uses the same exact material for her 16 week classes as she does for these 5 week...
  25. A&P 1 and 2 in 8 Weeks??

    Thank you to everyone for your advice and encouragement on this thread. I finish A&P 1 this Thursday and I am basically guaranteed an A in the class. The only way I could get a B at this point is if I get below a 60 on my final exam, so I think I...
