  2. HELP!! WHY IS NURSING SOo Competitive..?

    CTRNTOBE replied to Vixen17's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Nursing should be soo competitive because you literly will have peoples lives in your hands when you start working. As a patient would you prefer someone who squeeked into school with a minimum...

  3. I need some encouragement

    CTRNTOBE replied to taylor21's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Taylor, I know it seems forever; I am 2 years into pre-reqs and am taking my last one now (chemistry-yuk!). When I get real down, I either go to the 6th floor (nursing floor) of my college and just...

  4. Torrington

    CTRNTOBE replied to lovesnursing52's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    Have you ever heard the expression "raggy"? Well, that explains torrington. Could be a very nice town but the population is just not educated enough. Big drug problems in town, bad schools and a lot...

  5. The look!!!

    CTRNTOBE posted a topic in Male Nursing Students

    When I tell people that I am going into nursing I get the LOOK! Then they ask "does your partner support you" and I look them in the eye and say, yes my wife loves the idea. They are shocked that a...

    CTRNTOBE replied to shadowcat80's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    I have lived in CT my entire life (39 years) and here is how our weather goes. Jan - March is cold humid and snowy. April - June is rainy and humid with temps being 50 one day and 90 the next. July -...

  8. Am I the only one??

    CTRNTOBE replied to bpo93's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Why are you sad? You stated that you knew before applying that you didn't have the requirements, so why set yourself up for a fall?

  9. Post Spring 2006 semester grades here!

  10. Any guys here from Connecticut?

    CTRNTOBE replied to BP63's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Pre-reqs are a ***** and time consuming; it seems like they will never end. Bridgeport Hospital has a couple programs and they pretty much take anyone with a pulse. Naugatuck Valley CC is one of...

  11. ~*~*~* A&P II Summer 2006! *~*~*~

    CTRNTOBE replied to Elizabeth Hanes's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am taking A&P II also this summer. 4 1/2 weeks, 4 nights a week for 6 hours a night. Ouch!!!!!!!!!!! But I had the teacher before and she is pretty easy going. Good luck

  12. Questions about the Pre-entrance RN exam

    CTRNTOBE replied to amiee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    First of all, slow down. You are probably rushing because of the time limits. When I took the NLN, not one person I spoke to ran out of time. The test is pretty much like the book's sample tests....

  13. OMG I feel terrible

    CTRNTOBE replied to saskenn0910's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Your best bet would be to find an A&P I class. Without the groundwork that I lays, I feel you would just be spinning your wheels the second time around in II. Good

  14. Somebody Please Help Me :(

    CTRNTOBE replied to alishar2005's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would take them all again. It will be much easier the second time and you should be able to ace all 3 of them. At my school (very competitive), you would never accepted with a C on any 1 of those...

  15. she called me a spoiled b***(sorry off topic)

    CTRNTOBE replied to capribry's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would distance myself also, but I would be tolerant too. I'm sure this behavior has been going on for a while and you probably liked the attention from her until it became a possible roadblock to...

  18. Emergency!!! Need Physics/electricity Web Links To Study For Nln-rn Pre-entrance Exam

    CTRNTOBE replied to MUCHO MACHO MURSE's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Use the links provided above. The science section is full of the ohm law questions, circuits and physics and the study guide is no help for this section. Thank god my school is only interested in...

  19. Freaking out and Idk what to do........

    CTRNTOBE replied to FoxyRoxy21's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Do you have a science lab for extra help? Utilize the web as there are many resources available. You need to really understand a lot of the Bio stuff as some of it carries over heavily into Anatomy...

  20. Gpa

    CTRNTOBE replied to wannabFNP's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have a 3.94 overall and am carrying A's so far in A&P 1 and College Algebra. My program is very competitive (over 500 applicants for 120 spots) and I think you would have to have at least a 3.5...

    CTRNTOBE replied to JeanettePNP's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    CTRNTOBE replied to lydiajo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Just finished taking the NLN exam at 8:47 tonight. English section is relatively easy. There were a few words that you will not know (no one will nor should they care to know). The math section...
