  1. Alverno DEMSN 2021

    Guest1142305 replied to Guest1142305's topic in School, College Programs

    They may have cut me some slack on using Coopersmith for that class because of my undergrad and grad performance (4.0, 3.83). ‘We *Just* started, and so far I am very

  2. Alverno DEMSN 2021

    Guest1142305 replied to Guest1142305's topic in School, College Programs

    Alverno will accept Coopersmith as well for abnormal psych FYI. $150 plus the book. It’s a one shot proficiency test; all or nothing. Like a CLEP. Not an easy test, but I did well on it after...

  3. Prerequisite(s) progress thread

    Guest1142305 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am going to post here as I go to keep myself motivated. I found a school nearby that takes straighterline, portage, etc. for prerequisites and I can save a good amount of money going through de-MSN...

  4. Prerequisite(s) progress thread

    Guest1142305 replied to Guest1142305's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I hear you. We just had our 4th in July. Between that and my lingering recovery from Covid this has been a really hard

    Guest1142305 replied to Guest1142305's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You’ll be fine. There’s a real shortage of students willing to study in the Covid

  6. Prerequisite(s) progress thread

    Guest1142305 replied to Guest1142305's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Looking back I really underestimated what a mountain of information accelerated programs require you to learn before starting. It’s quite a mountain to climb. Easily 6000+ pages of hard sciences in...

  8. Alverno DEMSN 2021

    Guest1142305 replied to Guest1142305's topic in School, College Programs

    I have had no contact with alumni, but as with any nursing school I think online reviews are a mixed bag. I’m looking forward to starting in

  9. Prerequisite(s) progress thread

    Guest1142305 replied to Guest1142305's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Took a long break; health issues and moving. Finished Abnromal Psych and Developmental Psych with Coopersmith 2 weeks ago. Fun courses, challenging finals. Just completed Straighterline A&P...

    Guest1142305 replied to Guest1142305's topic in School, College Programs

    Unfortunately, I don’t really have that luxury. I’ve almost wrapped up my labs and am set for a January start; though I may push it out to the

  11. Straighterline Anatomy & Physiology 1

    Guest1142305 replied to maria2lio's topic in General Students

    Somewhere, I think in this thread or in my prerequisite progress thread, I posted a pretty verbose description of my experience with the final. It’s not that

  12. Straighterline Anatomy & Physiology 1

    Guest1142305 replied to maria2lio's topic in General Students

    I found it easier than the tests up to that point. Proctor just asks to see the room, know where your cell phone is, etc. pretty simple process. Give yourself 15 minutes before your scheduled time to...

  14. PTSD and Me?

    Guest1142305 replied to Carol Ebert's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Just my 2 cents here, but meridians, chakras, acupuncture, etc. in general are clinically disproven pseudoscience. The only reason techniques like this or grounding work is because tactile sensation...

  15. Gender discrimination in pay

    Guest1142305 replied to LibraNurse27's topic in General Nursing

    At the end of the day a hospital is not your friend, it is a business. What you allow is what will continue. If you let them hire you at less, that’s what they will do. They are in the business of...

    Guest1142305 replied to Guest1142305's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Finished abnormal psych reading, developmental psych reading pending. Lab kits finally fully arrived. May begin finishing this month. I had hoped to get into the September cohort, but with the...

    Guest1142305 replied to FullGlass's topic in Nursing News

    Yeah, neither I nor my wife have a steady enough knife hand for that. ? Ceserean x 4. Transient tachypenia is also really hard to treat in the woods with no oxygen or cpap. WOW!! this is a...

  19. Coronavirus Second Wave?

    Guest1142305 replied to sirI's topic in Disaster Preparation

    No worries. I’m nearly impossible to offend; I can be easily confounded though. Everything goes through a prism of intellectual curiosity for me. I desperately hope I can get better at social...

  20. Nearly One-Third Of Florida Children Tested For COVID-19 Test Positive

    Guest1142305 replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    There are three branches of our government, and the current President is only in charge of one of them. To try to act like one man can actually micromanage aspects of response over such a large scale...

  21. Coronavirus Second Wave?

    Guest1142305 replied to sirI's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Thank you for being so understanding. I worry about the student cohort / co-worker aspect more than anything else. If I can just get through that, I will leverage my ability to consume massive...

  22. Coronavirus Second Wave?

    Guest1142305 replied to sirI's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Women’s prison and men’s prison are very different. Also, the level of manipulation practiced by incarcerated individuals is astounding. Objectivity is far more important with them than empathy....

  23. Nearly One-Third Of Florida Children Tested For COVID-19 Test Positive

    Guest1142305 replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Based on those numbers it’s a 1.2% hospitalization rate and a 0.02% death rate for positive children. If those numbers hold, that would be a lot of hospitalizations and somewhere around 1000 deaths...
