I currently work at Abington as a Clinical Associate (CNA). I will be graduating from their nursing program in June and I'm also worried about this "job freeze". We are being told to apply even though there aren't many openings listed. However, I hav...

I just started the RN program at Abington in August. It's a hard program to get into because they get so many applications and only have 60 seats for the day program and 60 for the evening program. However, it is a wonderful school and I love it so f...

It's probably true since California is one of the states with the highest nursing salaries. I hear that it's because the cost of living up there is pretty high.

I just started nursing school on Monday and one of my instructors who has been a nurse for 20+ years mentioned that she was hearing that in the next 10 years or so the minimum educational requirement for nursing will be an MSN degree. What in the wor...

I start tomorrow too! I'm so excited!

I'm not a nurse yet (just started nursing school) but I hate when people ask me that too. I've never even considered being a doctor. I don't want to be on call and I don't want to pay rediculously high medical malpractice rates! I want to have a norm...

I started nursing school this week and have worked so hard to get to this point. There is no turning back I've come too far. I have a picture of a 2007 Infiniti G35 that I want really bad. I plan to carry it around as a bit of motivation and take a p...

"WOW!! That is awesome! Never heard of that! I still need two books. I guess I will go to walmart.com next!" I thought it was awsome too! They have all the newest nursing books. You just punch in the ISBN number to make sure you get the right edition...

You can buy college textbooks at walmart.com and they offer a bill me later option. I got all my nursing texts from them and my bill is just $10/month. Oh, and you can choose the overnight shipping option. Hope this helps. Good luck.

For Nursing 101 we have 7 required textbooks, 4 required PDA texts, and 5 recommended textbooks. I have spent $664 so far and that doesn't include the PDA texts. We buy those at the school when we start.

I took all of my pre-req's at Community College of Philadelphia and then decided to go to another Nursing School. You just have to make sure that the nursing schools you are applying to will accept the courses you have taken. Some schools are very p...

The kits are customized by the school that's probably why the prices will vary for each school. I'm also very curious to see what I paid so much money for.

My school also required that we purchase a Nursing Kit. It cost $207.75 and I have no idea what's included! It will ship directly to the school and I ordered it online at www.courseyenterprises.com

I went to CCP for my pre-req's and got accepted to their program but opted to go to Abington's Program instead. CCP gets hundreds on applications and their acceptances are based on a point system. You get points for GPA, their admission test, and poi...

I have orientation on August 22nd and August 24th and start classes on August 28th.

Biochemistry! The absolute worst of all times! So boring and I just didn't see the connection between the material and the Nursing Profession. Took my "B" and ran like hell!

Micro was actually very interesting. I loved it! Got an A!

Never mind i didn't see the part that says she is currently pregnant.

I'm confused. Wouldn't the answer to the OP's question be Gravida 2 Para 2. Doesn't a twin pregnancy still count as only one pregancy. So the lady was pregnant twice with two deliveries.

It took me about 2 1/2 years part-time. I start nursing school in 8/2006 Spring 2004: Eng Comp, Intro Psych Summer 2004: Inter Algebra Fall 2004: A&P I Spring 2005: A&P II, Intro Soc Summer 2005: Dev Psych Fall 2005: Micro, Nutrition Spring 2...

I work as a receptionist at an Ob/Gyn office and I am also an MA. When I started working there it didn't bother me when patients called and said they wanted to speak to the "nurse". We don't have any nurses at our practice so I knew that they really ...

Abington Memorial Hospital Dixon School of Nursing in Willow Grove, PA starting in late August 2006!

I agree with the previous posters who suggested talking to Spanish speakers. I am Hispanic and work in a OB/GYN office in an area that has a huge Hispanic population so it's important for the staff to be bilingual. One of my co-workers who is not His...
