  1. Nursing School -> Med School

    GreenMagus87 replied to NorCon's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'd go so far as to say it would be slightly detrimental to have an undergrad in nursing with regard to MD admissions. The science courses in nursing don't for the most part line up with the pre-MD...

  2. My Experience as an Non-political White Male in Nursing / NP School

    GreenMagus87 replied to guest1149052's topic in Male Nursing Students

    That's what the kids these days call

  3. Prerequisite(s) progress thread

    GreenMagus87 replied to Guest1142305's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have thankfully had the exact opposite experience in Chem (feels like endless tedium and teeth pulling). Thankfully I was a math UG so I was able to coast a bit on that for the first few modules. So...

  4. Prerequisite(s) progress thread

    GreenMagus87 replied to Guest1142305's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Just completed my Chemistry and Nutrition finals. About 98% sure I pulled A's in both classes. ? Signing up for stats and A&P I (or Bio 101, haven't decided, its recommended before A&P)

  5. My Experience as an Non-political White Male in Nursing / NP School

    GreenMagus87 replied to guest1149052's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Exactly. Everyone has at least some degree of bias (it is just a question of if you are healthy enough to admit it) and even good professors in humanities/social sciences can't escape it entirely. If...

  6. Pre-req exemption? (Stats)

    GreenMagus87 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I realize this is going to vary from school to school, but has anyone had any success applying for pre-req exemptions? I've taken some really advanced stats (Econometrics and Probability Theory) as a...

  7. My Experience as an Non-political White Male in Nursing / NP School

    GreenMagus87 replied to guest1149052's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Same to a large degree in theology (though the wrong think can be far left or right depending on school). My school is one of the few that is still liberal in the sense of free thought but it's an...

    GreenMagus87 replied to guest1149052's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Ignorant people cant self-educate themselves to what they are ignorant to, by definition they don't know what they are looking for. This is not a point of semantics. You have been pretty carefree in...

    GreenMagus87 replied to Guest1142305's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    5 of 6 Chem 1 modules, 4 of 6 Nutrition modules on Portage. A's so far. I will start Portage's new BIO 101 class next. Gods do I have my hand in too many pots though.

  10. Prerequisite(s) progress thread

    GreenMagus87 replied to Guest1142305's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thats amazing! 42 for me so far (I may be going to National Guard OCS next month). Not that I think it would work for everyone (genetics has more of a say than we give credit for) but I think this is...

    GreenMagus87 replied to Guest1142305's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Finished Mod 1 of 6 for Nutrition today. Not going to lie, I think I could've gotten a B taking it cold just from being a keto-gym bro. ? I imagine it will pick up

    GreenMagus87 replied to Guest1142305's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Oh yea, Portage is out of pocket. I wouldnt use my months on them anyways since they are affordable. I am thinking a year down the road when I am looking at the 50k+ per year price tags of DNP...

  13. Prerequisite(s) progress thread

    GreenMagus87 replied to Guest1142305's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yea I am definitely trying for the NP (PMHNP) route as well. I have no issue with being an RN but mental healthcare is my passion and PMHNPs can prescribe and do psychotherapy so I feel like little is...

  14. My Experience as an Non-political White Male in Nursing / NP School

    GreenMagus87 replied to guest1149052's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Insofar as OP's account is accurate this is disturbing. That said, I question the extent to which it possibly can be. What he is describing is typical of the humanities and quant-light social...

  15. Prerequisite(s) progress thread

    GreenMagus87 replied to Guest1142305's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I considered the MD route for a split second but the eight year total commitment with residency scared me off (and the nightmare stories of not getting matches). Taking Chem has made me realize...

  16. Prerequisite(s) progress thread

    GreenMagus87 replied to Guest1142305's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good job on the A&P! Just finished mod 4 of 6 for Chem 1 with Portage. I also just signed up for their nutrition class. I heard nutrition is the easiest pre-req, hoping to fill time with this when...

    GreenMagus87 replied to Guest1142305's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Finished my thesis work for the semester. Not technically a prereq but now that's it's done I should be able to sprint through Chem I

    GreenMagus87 replied to Guest1142305's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I miss it too... in doses. I was going to go active chaplaincy but a year after I was discharged and back in the normal world my blood pressure had dropped like 25 points from less stress. So, will be...

    GreenMagus87 replied to Guest1142305's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yea I was guessing somewhere in high church world based on your profile icon! Did an MAR in theology at Yale several years ago, currently finishing an M.Div at Colgate Rochester Crozier (a mouthful,...

    GreenMagus87 replied to Guest1142305's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am simultaneously doing Chem 1 with lab through Portage and completing my M.Div (master of divinity) thesis at a seminary. These things do not fit well together and my brain is

  21. Healthcare Experience and Admissions

    GreenMagus87 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello Everyone, I am currently taking my prereqs to apply to nursing school. My ultimate goal is to be a PMHNP and I hope to get into a direct entry style program, though I will also be applying to a...

  22. GPA/GRE/Stats Direct Entry Programs and Admissions

    GreenMagus87 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello Everyone, I haven't been able to find much data on this question(s) so I am curious, what do the average GPA and GRE scores of successful applicants to direct graduate level entry programs such...

  23. A & P with no science background?

    GreenMagus87 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello All! I am hoping to begin nursing school in the next couple years and have been comparing potential schools' prerequisites. A & P appear to be the core of the prereqs as everyone asks for...

  24. A & P with no science background?

    GreenMagus87 replied to GreenMagus87's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello Everyone, Thanks for the comments. I ended up starting Introductory Chem through Portage. Introductory Bio is next as they've started to offer it. Then I will move on to the A & P

    GreenMagus87 replied to GreenMagus87's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    WOW!! You guys got a great asset in your CCs... community college tuition for my locals CCs is 190 per credit hour even for residents. I respect people saying that in person is better. It probably is...
