1. Thoughts on vegetarian/ vegan diet

   metricloveBSN replied to bs76247's topic in General Nursing

   Thank you! I have a BS in Dietetics and have basically spent a good portion of my life correcting bad "nutrition" advice. Didactic students take courses that teach the chemistry behind micro and macronutrient absorption, so they really understand th...

   Congratulations to those who were accepted today! I was accepted to the Gainesville campus and look forward to meeting you ?

3. UNG Fall 2019 Cohort

   I agree- I’ll be done w prereqs in April so I’d prefer to take it over the summer (if accepted). Hopefully they will offer it as a choice ?

5. UNG Fall 2019 Cohort

   metricloveBSN replied to metricloveBSN's topic in School Programs

   Hey guys! Thanks for sharing your updates. I haven’t heard anything in my classes besides what I posted last so it’s good to not feel totally in the dark about everything. I hope we don’t have to wait until March! Im a little confused about taking t...

6. UNG Fall 2019 Cohort

   metricloveBSN replied to metricloveBSN's topic in School Programs

   I'm a little anxious also. It seems that the days are creeeepping by. Literally every student except one in my micro class has applied to the program or is going to apply for Spring 2020. The general consensus is that we will get The E-Mail in Mar...

7. Is there something wrong with me? Too much studying?

   metricloveBSN replied to BiscuitStripes's topic in General Students

   I like to study. It genuinely makes me happy. I have changed my language from "I have to study" or "I need to study" to "I want to study" so that my family and friends understand that I'm not forcing myself to do anything. That being said, you obv...

   I have not heard of this point system but it makes sense! Thanks for sharing :)

9. UNG Fall 2019 Cohort

   metricloveBSN replied to metricloveBSN's topic in School Programs

   Hi guys- I'm just here to post an update on my final stats. I still don't know which GPA they're going to look at. I graduated from UGA w/a 3.57 but a while ago. Got a 4.0 for one semester of grad school (not sure if they will look at that). This se...

10. UNG Fall 2019 Cohort

    metricloveBSN replied to metricloveBSN's topic in School Programs

    Hi misako! I also have heard/read differing stories of acceptance with varying GPAs and HESI scores. Perhaps the personality test is a factor. Any successful program would likely want a variety of personality and learning types present, but it's...

11. RN, ADN being obsolete

    metricloveBSN replied to lovewaves's topic in General Students

    That's interesting insight, and I'm sure you would know much more than I would about this subject. Thank you for your insight, genuinely.

12. RN, ADN being obsolete

    metricloveBSN replied to lovewaves's topic in General Students

    Not bursting my bubble. It seems to me that you are very obviously unhappy as a nurse.

13. RN, ADN being obsolete

    metricloveBSN replied to lovewaves's topic in General Students

    That makes sense. I personally am not sure what exact scope of nursing I want to do just yet. I would expect to be treated like a professional no matter what profession I'm in, so I'm not sure what you mean by that. I was a server at one point, an...

14. RN, ADN being obsolete

    metricloveBSN replied to lovewaves's topic in General Students

    Yep, I understand this. The original message said "hospitals prefer a certification over a BSN" and I took this to mean ADN and not a SPECIALTY certification. An RN w/a BSN can still get a certification, so I don't really understand this person's p...

15. RN, ADN being obsolete

    metricloveBSN replied to lovewaves's topic in General Students

    Ehh... Sorry but I'll have to disagree with you here. I have a degree in dietetics and that has been very helpful, just in life because SO MANY employers want a bachelor's degree in SOMETHING. While I understand what you're saying, and make no mist...
