  1. For some of the assignments, groups are assigned, and others you can choose. I didn't have any horrible experiences with my groups. It's important to remember that each cohort is going to be...
  2. I'm also a second semester student. We don't have any papers that are explicitly called 'research papers', but every writing assignment/presentation that you have in nursing school has to be backed by...
  3. ABSN Programs

    Unless you have a huge aversion to taking chemistry for the lab, I would go ahead and take it - especially if it will boost your GPA. A lot of programs that I'd applied to required it, and it'll...
  4. You shouldn't have to apply for Financial Aid before accepting your admission offer for JHU. If they offer you a scholarship, it seems that they usually call students within a week of them receiving...
  5. There are a couple of these threads already but they're a little dated. I wanted to know what people who are experienced in the field feel about ABSN vs. direct entry MSN programs? I'm trying to...
  6. Is the Nov. 1 deadline application for both Summer and Fall cohorts or are there 2 separate applications? Asking for a friend of mine who is interested in starting ASAP. (I was recently admitted for...
  7. I LOVED the heart and blood vessels unit, I find it absolutely fascinating. Is it both conceptual as well as practical? Do the obvious - ask your professor questions, look at animations online, and...
  8. ABSN vs. Direct Entry MSN?

    Thank you guys for your input. I'm seeing a lot more pros to the MSN than I had previously thought of. It's all a lot to consider & I appreciate you weighing
  9. I don't think direct entry MSN gives you a huge leg-up generally, but it really depends on your individual situation. Where I live, many of the ABSN programs are about as costly as direct entry MSN...
  10. Low cumulative GPA. Hope for ABSN?

    I think it's going to really depend on the school. If you have a written component/statement of purpose, I would definitely acknowledge that moment in your life in some way, and incorporate an...
  11. Personal Statement Help!

    I agree with the above posters that this experience really does need to be your own. I think you may be overthinking it. Take a step back and take out the words "healthcare experience" and just ask if...
  12. ABSN vs. Direct Entry MSN?

    Thanks for weighing in - it's actually nice hearing from someone who's gone through a direct entry MSN that can kind of speak to the post-grad flexibility. Part of the reason I'm struggling a lot with...
  13. ABSN vs. Direct Entry MSN?

    Love all of your feedback - extremely helpful! Thanks so much for taking the time to
  14. Accelerated Nursing Program

    I think maybe it would actually be worthwhile for you to do some more clinical hours. PA & NP are actually quite different, and you might benefit from seeing the different roles PAs, RNs, NPs, and...
  15. I got in! Got my e-mail around 5:00p
  16. Marymount University ABSN Spring 2018

    Super late to the game here, but I was wondering if any of you who attended Marymount would be willing to give a rundown of how you like the program? Have recently been accepted to their Spring ABSN...
  17. Hi all! Long time lurker and have finally made an account to comment! Just wanted to give some insights for people still awaiting a decision. I applied on 8/19, "completed" (i.e., my recommendation...
  18. Also am awaiting a decision. From lurking on last year's Spring entry thread, it looks like we will probably get an answer around Christmas. Hoping to get an answer sooner so that I can make a...
