    Thank you so much for posting! I'm going to share this with my

  3. Can someone please recommend a good online program to take pre-reqs?

    JeanettePNP replied to Austingirl73's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I wouldn't recommend taking any science classes online because most programs require labs and online labs aren't really a substitute. I took other pre-reqs online (like English, Statistics and...

  4. taking CA NCLEX, is it harder?

    JeanettePNP replied to watchasay10's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think such a magic point really exists though, because we all have strengths and weaknesses in different areas. So, if my weakness is in Pharm, I might be getting some easy questions wrong,...

  5. Black male nurses

    JeanettePNP replied to dlhall's topic in Male Nursing Students

    There was one black male student in my class of 60. In every clinical rotation though I encountered at least 1 or 2 black males on

  6. Futile care

    JeanettePNP replied to sunnycalifRN's topic in MICU, SICU

    I think people need to have a better understanding of what the dying process looks like. They need to know that medical science can only do so much to keep nature at bay. Once a person is actually...

  7. Questions regarding SUNY Downstate Accelerated Nursing Program

    JeanettePNP replied to cupcake8503's topic in New York Nursing

    I wouldn't call posts from last year's class "really old and outdated." How much do you think they changed in 12

  8. Where are the "normal" births?

    JeanettePNP replied to what2donow's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Can you give more information about the demographics of the birthing population? Are they young/teenaged moms? How educated are they about pregnancy, labor and delivery? How prepared are they for...

  9. Nursing student freeze?

    JeanettePNP posted a topic in General Students

    Being that many hospitals now have hiring freezes and new grad freezes, maybe schools should also have student freezes. Like, freeze enrollment for a semester or two. Then when the job market picks...

  10. Why are there no new grad jobs?

    JeanettePNP replied to stargurl2006's topic in First Year After Licensure

    There isn't really any magic ticket that will guarantee you a job. Your best bet is to find work in a hospital now, as a CNA or tech. This way you'll get patient care experience, know hospital...

  11. Nursing student freeze?

    JeanettePNP replied to JeanettePNP's topic in General Students

    That's very interesting. Although, they're probably not suspending the program itself. They just have a huge backlog of applicants. Also, to do nursing in Hunter you first have to enroll as an...

  12. Working "below your license"

    JeanettePNP replied to MattiesMama's topic in General Nursing

    It does depend on the state and facility. Many places will not allow you to work below your license for liability reasons. Basically, if something goes wrong and you have the knowledge and...

  13. when do you take the NCLEX?

    JeanettePNP replied to irish_fiddler747's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    It took 3 weeks from graduation until I got the ATT. As soon as I got it I went to the Pearsonvue website and scheduled the NCLEX for the earliest possible appointment--which was the next day. I just...

  14. Should pre-reqs really take 3 years to complete?

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

    It took me 4 years to get my BSN, pre-reqs + accelerated nursing program. Fall 2006: English I Cell Biology Political Science (not a requirement for nursing, but requirement for general bachelor's)...

  15. Should pre-reqs really take 3 years to complete?

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

    Can you post the list of required courses? No way should it take 3 years just to do pre-reqs. It took me 4 semesters to complete pre-reqs, only because I had to take them in

  16. not looking "put together"

    JeanettePNP replied to Otessa's topic in General Nursing

    I thought the same of one of the patients when I was doing psych rotation. She was beautiful and always looked well-dressed and put together... but borderline with multiple suicide

  17. nursing shortage?

    JeanettePNP replied to RN1980's topic in General Nursing

    And now there's no shortage of new grads willing to do even that to get experience... but hospitals in their wisdom have decided that hiring new grads isn't worth their bother. They think in 10 years...

  18. SUNY-Downstate summer '09--Introduce yourselves please!

    JeanettePNP posted a topic in General Students

    From the pre-nursing board there were a number of us waiting to hear from Downstate, and by now quite a few have been accepted! So please, introduce yourselves here in the Nursing Student forum, and...

  19. Pearson Vue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 2

    JeanettePNP replied to Silverdragon102's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Took the test Tuesday, got the good popup, still waiting for my license to show up on the BON. Why is New York State so

  20. NY Nclex passers

    JeanettePNP replied to oracle389's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    What does the license look like? Is it like a driver's

  21. Attacking a Doctor Makes News; Attacking a Nurse is Business As Usual

    JeanettePNP replied to Ruby Vee's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    What exactly is the complaint? That nurse shootings don't make the news? That nurses get attacked all the time and nobody cares? How frequently are there nurse shootings in relation to doctor...

  22. What is so hard about A&P 1?

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

    I found A&P I to be easier than A&P II. The first half of the semester was a review of basic chemistry and cell biology--which were both prereqs to A&P, so I don't know why they were even...

  23. Pearson Vue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 2

    JeanettePNP replied to Silverdragon102's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Yeah, I also got lots of those "which one needs follow up"? The strange thing is that there were so many that I just blindly guessed, but still the computer shut off at 75 and I got the good popup. I...

  24. I'm not rude and assertive so I wouldn't survive at work...right?

    JeanettePNP replied to Back2Nursing09's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    IME the more abrasive nurses are the ones who don't advance. And gripe and complain why they're not

  25. Pearson Vue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 2

    JeanettePNP replied to Silverdragon102's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    If it makes you feel better, some people get the full spread not because of how they're doing but just because of some random experimental bs. By the way I think 2.5 hours to answer 265 questions is...
