  1. UNG Fall 2019 Cohort

    metricloveBSN posted a topic in School, College Programs

    Hello fellow pre-nursing students! This is a thread for those who are applying to The University of North Georgia's Nursing Program to start Fall 2019. Share your stats, HESI tips, and eventually...

  2. 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...

    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

    metricloveBSN replied to metricloveBSN's topic in School, College 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...

    metricloveBSN replied to metricloveBSN's topic in School, College 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...

  8. 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...

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

  10. UNG Fall 2019 Cohort

    metricloveBSN replied to metricloveBSN's topic in School, College 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...

    metricloveBSN replied to metricloveBSN's topic in School, College 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...

  12. 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,

    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

  14. 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...

  15. 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...

  16. 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...

  17. RN, ADN being obsolete

    metricloveBSN replied to lovewaves's topic in General Students

    Pump the brakes on the drama. I was legit asking. I'm a pre-nursing student applying to a BSN program, so this is relevant info for me. From what I understand, it's the speciality certification that...

    metricloveBSN replied to lovewaves's topic in General Students

    Why would a hospital prefer a lower education over a higher

  19. UNG Fall 2019 Cohort

    metricloveBSN replied to metricloveBSN's topic in School, College Programs

    It's hard to say exactly bc the questions were so random for me. Some were very specific and others were vague. I'd definitely make sure you understand broad concepts, how the organ systems work...

    metricloveBSN replied to metricloveBSN's topic in School, College Programs

    The app I used was only $15, and I definitely think it was worth it because it enables you to test your knowledge and identify areas of weakness so that you can focus your study more in those areas....

  21. UNG Fall 2019 Cohort

    metricloveBSN replied to metricloveBSN's topic in School, College Programs

    You choose which sections you want to do first. The whole exam is timed, not individual sections, so you need to keep track of time. If you encounter a question that you are taking too long to decide...

    There isn't a fee to apply to the nursing program once you are accepted to the university. There is a fee to apply to the university. It's not much- similar to what most schools

  23. UNG Fall 2019 Cohort

    metricloveBSN replied to metricloveBSN's topic in School, College Programs

    While that score is probably good enough for acceptance, I would take it again if I were you so that you're above the average and not below. If you think you can do better, that's especially a reason...

    metricloveBSN replied to Tiabony07's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What? You are leaving entire words out of your posts (or using the wrong words). Why are you getting saucy when people give you good, reasonable answers to, in my opinion, a really dumb question. You...

  25. UNG Fall 2019 Cohort

    metricloveBSN replied to metricloveBSN's topic in School, College Programs

    Yes I think that's plenty of time. You may want to e-mail the nursing department just in case to make sure. From my understanding, you just have to take it by 12/15. The don't start putting...
