  1. How do I get accepted and where

    coolpeach replied to Austo4's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    As the above posters suggested you will just have to build yourself up. Start with your lowest grades, retake the class, and make an A. I applied to a community college ADN program with a 3.8, and was...

  2. Need Health and Liability Insurance and CPR Training Prior to First Semester? How?!

    coolpeach replied to Tallulahbelle's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My school also requires medical insurance, liability insurance, immunizations, TB tests, CPR card, physical exam etc prior to starting. I was got my acceptance letter in March, and I had until July 15...

  3. Am I doomed??

    coolpeach replied to ms.futureRN86's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I thought micro was a lot easier than A&P. It will make the nursing program harder, but it is

  4. Got Rejected

    coolpeach replied to GreenGlassCastle's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    When I got rejected I had taken all of my pre reqs and support courses so I was in the same bind. I am on financial aid so they get upset if you start taking courses that aren't on your degree plan,...

  5. Have a question about why nursing is a conservative profession.

    coolpeach replied to AHCerioni's topic in General Nursing

    I am glad this is your question, and not mine. It would drive me crazy!!!! It could mean so many different things I would ask for more information from your professor before answering.....It's the...

  7. Bombing A&P 1- online

    coolpeach replied to dee78's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I can't even imagine taking A&P online. I would drop it, and take a on campus

  8. Should boyfriend help me out?

    coolpeach replied to QUEBEBRAN's topic in General Students

    I think it's really great for those of you who are able to say you did it all 100% by yourself, but I think it's also ok for those who needed help. I left a domestic violence situation with nothing...

  9. Sitter questions

    coolpeach replied to xoloveinautumn's topic in General Students

    I am still a nusing student and have not done this in a professional setting, but do have personal experience with my grandma. She had a series of mini strokes, and spent a good deal of time trying to...

  10. New and Need help with my schedule

    coolpeach replied to sarah_elizabeth's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Just be careful. I remember Biology was my first major science course and it was hard. I had already had a semester of easy courses (Comp, psych, speech, and dev math), but was totally not ready for...

  11. Should boyfriend help me out?

    coolpeach replied to QUEBEBRAN's topic in General Students

    I am a nursing student, and a mom of three boys (21, 20 and 13). If any of them were supporting a girl/woman they were not married to I would smack them

  12. New and Need help with my schedule

    coolpeach replied to sarah_elizabeth's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You could not attend the CC I went to without already having a GED unless you were taking duel credit as a junior/senior in high school working toward a diploma. Then even though I had a GED they...

    coolpeach replied to BlueberryGirl's topic in Texas Nursing

    Biology- ******* (or sp something close). She really helped me prepare for A&P. A&P 1&2 - Dr. *** (really really really really GREAT) Chemistry - ***** (we called her by her first name)...

  14. Brookhaven/El Centro How long does it take????

    coolpeach replied to BlueberryGirl's topic in Texas Nursing

    Teady, I wish I could help as far as professors, but I took almost all of my pre reqs at Richland. The only classes I have taken at BHC are Spanish, and End of life issues. I will start their full...

  15. Brookhaven/El Centro How long does it take????

    coolpeach replied to BlueberryGirl's topic in Texas Nursing

    My neighbor went to El Centro, and I start Brookhavens program in Aug. She told me at El Centro they went four semesters Fall, Spring, Fall, Spring. So it ended up being a 16 month program, but they...

  18. What is your major?

    coolpeach replied to 987!'s topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I go to a CC, and we had to declare our major in order to get financial aid. My major is nursing ADN. I was told they do this to make sure you are taking classes that are needed for your major, and...

  19. Financial Aid....WIA contacts

    coolpeach replied to obicurn's topic in General Students

    I live in Texas, and I believe here they will only pay for a certificate program, and not for a degree. Big

  20. Fastest Way to become an RN

    coolpeach replied to tou860's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It really depends on the school you go to. I have heard others on the board state that their school requires you become a CNA first or give you extra points if you do. Others schools do not care,...

  21. update

    coolpeach replied to 3rdgenRN2B's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I understand wanting to take time off to be with your child. I waited until my youngest started 1st grade before I went back full time. Keep an eye on that chemistry. It often takes a while to get...

  22. Alcohol problem

    coolpeach replied to natrgrrl's topic in General Students

    I took nutrition last semester, and they actually said no amount is SAFE. An amount that will not have a health effect for one person is a major liver problem for the next. That being said it did...

  23. curious BSN OR ADN why?

    coolpeach replied to butterflies135's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am in the Dallas Texas area and the CC's here do not use waiting lists. You are accepted based on a point system. Here's how it works. GPA + Hesi A2 score + points for having completed support...

  24. Curious...........

    coolpeach replied to MsOptimistic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would call and check, but I wouldn't think a ticket for no insurance would keep for from nursing school. I know a felony might as well as a charge that involves drugs, alcohol, sex crimes, theft,...

  25. curious BSN OR ADN why?

    coolpeach replied to butterflies135's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I decided to go the ADN route because it was a TWO year degree. I was a newly divorced mom of 3 boys, and needed to get through school as quickly as possible. I then found out I needed to take pre...
