    Jobs for pre-nursing students..

    Multicollinearity replied to PreAzRN's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I agree with the above. While I think working as a CNA, PCT, or something like phlebotomy is ideal - working as an admitting clerk can be good, too. I worked as an ER clerk years ago. I think it was...

    Let's talk GPA

    Multicollinearity replied to rn2bein08's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    One BSN program here has had a cutoff of 3.9. The other has had a cutoff of 3.8. Both require health-care volunteer experience, too. One requires recommendations from two professors, as well....

    What medical term do you dislike the most ?

    Multicollinearity replied to Keepstanding's topic in General Nursing

    Everytime I read the word "chyme" I feel like gagging. It's the only medical-related word I've ever seen that gets to

    Is anyone else going absolutely crazy???

    Multicollinearity replied to jla623's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Oh my goodness, I feel for you all. I'll be in your shoes in 3 short months. I'm sure I'll wig out from the suspense and drive everyone around me nuts. I'll probably have to start running 4 miles...

    You have done so well! I hope you are proud of

    Would you work during nursing school if you didn't have to?

    Multicollinearity replied to justme1972's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My number one pet peeve in life is people who don't understand those different than themselves! Seriously, it ticks me off. When I read someone saying, "I worked full-time in school so you can, of...

    Nelson Denny reading test??

    Multicollinearity replied to joeyrr71's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    One nursing program I'm applying to previously used this test. The pre-nursing advisor said that the best study method for the Nelson-Denny is to get a GRE Reading study guide. So that's what I did....

    Thinking about switching majors. So discouraged.

    Multicollinearity replied to Pinky05's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Try to keep from getting discouraged. After all, you aren't studying to be a microbiologist. You're just taking a microbiology class, just once, to be a nurse. I know it can get frustrating, though....

    Multicollinearity replied to CRNI-ICU20's topic in General Nursing

    I really think this thread is a common example of throwing the baby out with the bath water...not seeing the forest for the trees...etc. What I mean by that is this: internet forums tend to be vast...

    Multicollinearity replied to CRNI-ICU20's topic in General Nursing

    Perception is so interesting. I don't see what you are talking about, to the degree you say, CRNI. If anything, I wish the forum could be moderated just a smidgen less. Anonymity always tempts people...

    Personal Statement. How and where?

    Multicollinearity replied to maximus76's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    daytonite, i understand why a student would want advice on this. so much pressure, importance, and focus goes into the personal statement. for many programs where there is no interview, this is an...

    Personal Statement. How and where?

    Multicollinearity replied to maximus76's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would write about the top reasons why you want to be a nurse PLUS positive things you will add to the nursing program. Just like a job interview...you don't just talk about what you want...you also...

    Multicollinearity replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    I have another grammar question. Which of the following is correct: 1) I have decided not to apply. 2) I have decided to not apply. What kind of word is "to" in these sentences? What I'm getting...

    Sexist English Teacher

    Multicollinearity replied to Shooting4RN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Who knows how much of what he said actually happened. One thing is for certain - based upon what you said he said - he is trying to telegraph the idea that you best not bother complaining about him to...

    Private Tutor?

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

    Ask your instructor if he or she can refer you to a former student who is stellar and may wish to earn money by tutoring. Most full-time instructors maintain relationships with excellent former...

    Sexist English Teacher

    Multicollinearity replied to Shooting4RN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow!!! This reminds me of this crazy misogynist instructor I had last spring. He would constantly demean the female students and infantilize them by asking "Am I going to make you cry?" It was absurd....

    Humanities Req...what did you take?

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

    Next semester, I'm going to take a Middle Eastern Humanities/Understanding Islam class. It seems like our two cultures are colliding so badly, the least I can do is understand it

    RNs with Bad Credit

    Multicollinearity replied to HappyMeNow's topic in General Nursing

    I could be mistaken, but unless you have garnishments, I don't think you need to worry about it for the average staff nurse job. If you have a garnishment, I'd fix that

    RNs with Bad Credit

    Multicollinearity replied to HappyMeNow's topic in General Nursing

    Credit checks can reveal a wealth of information for reasons that have little to do with actual credit. For example, when you apply for any credit, you list your employer. This is on your credit...

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

    I bought a CD from Amazon.com called Excalibur ChemTutor. It has helped me so far because I need practice, and this provides more practice. It's not so good for initial learning. It's for...
