  1. Little Bummed

    coolpeach replied to tbell2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    All the schools around here have the same semester wait between applying and acceptance. Like this semester they open the App period in Aug, and allow everyone to submit unit late September. They also...

  2. Drug testing?

    coolpeach replied to Mike1974's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hair tie, I have heard of that happening. If that happens again don't let it go. I would take all of my OTC drugs to them and show them. You might also be able to go to someone who knows these...

  3. Applied for a Stafford Loan

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

    The first time I applied for a Stafford it was a long process. My school makes it mandatory that you go to a loan information session so I went to that. I filled out the paper work and turned it in....

    coolpeach replied to coolpeach's topic in Texas Nursing

  5. 12 hour hospital shift hours

    coolpeach replied to coolpeach's topic in Texas Nursing

    Do either of you have children...how do you manage school schedules etc. I don't think I would like the 3 on 2 off, 2 on 3 off. I think I would like it better 3 on 4 off

  6. Should I go through with it?

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

    I think it depends on what you want to do, and whats support you have available to you now. If your want to stay with this man I would advise you to not go into any committed programs right now, but...

  7. Was my Professor Right?

    coolpeach replied to neb4882's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would suggest changing professors for your next attempt. I have ran into a few professors who somehow have taken upon themselves to weed out those of us they do not feel worthy. In my opinion these...

  8. New Here

    coolpeach replied to 2010NRS's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't think being male decreases your chances at all. I am seeing more and more male nurses in the hospitals (have 3 boys so I am there a lot). As far as extra classes I would check with the...

    coolpeach replied to coolpeach's topic in Texas Nursing

    I have figured it up if I get an 100 on my Hesi A2 I will have 37.4 points. I am trying to play with the numbers to take the pressure off. I would need a 93 to have 30.4 points. Do you think 30 would...

  13. Taking the HESI entrance exam on Aug. 14th!!

    coolpeach replied to shopaholic42488's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I found the study guide is great with telling you what will be on the test, but you will need to reference back to your a&p book to fill things in. The study guide has no diagrams or pictures and...

    coolpeach replied to Mike1974's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My mom files medical insurance and has to take random drug tests, and my teenage son had to take one for a part time position at the krogers. I think now days its just a part of life. If you want to...

  17. Drug testing?

    coolpeach replied to Mike1974's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    coolpeach replied to shopaholic42488's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am having to use my A&P book. The Hesi study guide just says what will be on it, but really doesn't go into detail about the subject matter they are taking about (in regard to A&P). So I...
