    So I'm fired. Again.

    Multicollinearity replied to SuesquatchRN's topic in General Nursing

    Sue, I'm so sorry this happened to you. I do admire how quickly you've planned what you are doing with Excelsior. Good for you. Like others have said, you will find your niche. I bet someday you...

    Why does my Nursing student friend get offended??

    Multicollinearity replied to AspiringNurse7's topic in General Nursing

    There is no way we can know this because we don't have a crystal ball. It does sound like he's giving you signs that he doesn't wish to discuss your questions. I'd respect that and let it

    Can a new grad negotiate?

    Multicollinearity replied to bucknangler's topic in General Nursing

    Nursing has been a profession long before you ever thought about it. Good luck to you with your salary negotiation

    Can a new grad negotiate?

    Multicollinearity replied to bucknangler's topic in General Nursing

    When determining new grad RN salary, your "accomplishments" mean nothing. You have zero RN experience. Your potential co-worker will earn more than you because she has more nursing experience than...

    Liberty university anyone?

    Multicollinearity replied to tuxly's topic in General Nursing

    I'd think carefully if you wish to go on for grad school at a public or private non-religious university. Liberty has a rep in certain circles, and it's not good. I've only heard it as the butt of...

    Multicollinearity replied to nurz2be's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    i hear you about the frustration with an adn being a so-called "two year degree." i do. at the same time, i think it is inaccurate and disrespectful to say a bsn is only a couple more classes than an...

    Multicollinearity replied to cassyandra00's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Cassyandra, This sounds like a normal adjustment to college. Try not to worry. As far as study tips, are you reading each chapter in your textbook? Are you going through the questions textbooks...

    Nutrition Fall 2007

    Multicollinearity replied to rnmomtobe2010's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am amazed that my nutrition class has heated up to the pace and workload of an A&P class. The class average for exams so far is 67%. You

    Why don't they make ALL the requirements the same???

    Multicollinearity replied to luvmy3kids's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I know this pain, ouch. I was planning on applying to five different nursing programs in the Spring for Fall '08. Each program has different pre-reqs. That was a challenge to take all the varying...

    Does being a Male help for admission

    Multicollinearity replied to surehands2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I could have written the above. This has been my experience with the universities I've attended and community colleges. I will add a couple more thoughts, though. For certain subjects, I've had...

    Multicollinearity replied to surehands2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    One BSN program I was going to apply to recently accepted a male student with a pre-req GPA of 2.8. The average GPA of all accepted for the last few years has been 3.8 to 3.9. This university does use...

    Well aren't you the clever one, LOL! Yes, I just got accepted to nursing school. Last week I got a letter from the Dean of Nursing offering me a seat in the class starting in January. Maybe it was...

    Stethoscope Help

    Multicollinearity replied to keaton90's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Keaton, I don't think we mean to make a big deal out of it, and we certainly don't want you to feel bad. It is reasonable that you had no idea that "pre-nursing" is a status for college students. We...

    How many sciences should I take at once?

    Multicollinearity replied to FutureRN1908's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would take Chemistry first and micro last. Chemistry seems to be the foundation for nearly everything. You can take the other classes without chem (if your school allows it), but you will understand...

    Multicollinearity replied to Keepstanding's topic in General Nursing

    I'm in my last semester of pre-reqs. I keep reading this word in my Medical Nutrition class. Good to know it's not used in the clinical setting! My text's definition for chyme includes the words...

    Here's what I don't understand: how did physicians become the tops of everything, God-like, in the United States? In other countries, PhD "doctors" are viewed as higher than MDs. How did this happen...
