  1. Paying for nursing school?

    MIKelly replied to jaytek13's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Whoa! That is a stiff amount

  2. Paying for nursing school?

    MIKelly replied to jaytek13's topic in Michigan Nursing

    There is a Michigan Nursing Scholarship available to nursing students already accepted into nursing school. It pays up to $4,000 per acedemic year, I believe? I don't know if Baker is a college that...

  3. Are application fees the norm?

    MIKelly replied to Pixiesmom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The program I'm applying to charges $100, but not until you are actually accepted in. There is a $40 fee for the HESI

  4. on line classes for generals, are they reallly deep?

    MIKelly replied to nd deb's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I personally find psychology to be very confusing, not so easy (some of the theories are wishy washy or very similar to other theories). If all the tests and exams weren't open book I wouldn't be...

  5. on line classes for generals, are they reallly deep?

    MIKelly replied to nd deb's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have taken three online courses, all prereqs; english comp, nutrition, and psychology. They were all "accelerated" classes and took 8 wks. I found it pretty easy to do the work and follow along....

  6. Awesome web site to check your prof's out

    MIKelly replied to RRTtoRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That site scared me when I looked at my nutrition professor's rating before class started. Turned out all the bad stuff that was said must have been from slackers! I am hoping the ratings for my...

  7. Biology and A&PI in summer

    MIKelly replied to haemma's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was registered to take anatomy this summer (6 wk course) but then decided it wasn't in my best interest to try to take it at an accelerated level if I wanted a B or an A. I need an A, really, to...

  8. Pre-nursing self study?? Would this help me?

    MIKelly replied to MidLifeRN2012's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am just at the prereq stage right now but I think that pre-studying for any class is a good idea. I plan to do that for anatomy before I take it. Well, at least have all the body parts memorized,...

  9. HESI score

    MIKelly replied to keldel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    At the college I plan to attend you have to get an 85 or better on the HESI to be considered for the nursing program. But because they also base acceptance on your GPA you need a higher HESI than 85...

  10. Nutrition question

    MIKelly replied to moonischasingme1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am so glad that no questions like that were asked on my nutrition exam! I was dreading that and thankfully it wasn't asked! Are you using the textbook that has the carrots on the

  11. I am going to have a nervous breakdown....

    MIKelly replied to jbjints's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm so sorry . I hope your second choice works out better for you

  12. Clinton Twp. Baker College, MI

    MIKelly replied to K10K11's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I meant that if you applied to both programs you'd have a 1/155 shot of getting in, not that MCC has 155 slots. If you add up what Baker has available and MCC it's 155. My math is bad, which is why...

  13. Math

    MIKelly replied to Duveed's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have to say one of the reasons I decided to apply to my local CC's nursing program was that there isn't a math requirement! There isn't any chemistry, either. I was pleasantly surprised. I know...

  14. Somebody Please Help Me :(

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

    At the school I am applying to they don't look at the classes you have taken, only the GPA of your last 12 credits. So it would be possible to do average in the science courses and then boost your...

  15. I never thought it was possible...

    MIKelly replied to brinley_s's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Do you recommend taking key points out of the text and making notecards to study from? Does your instructor give you study guides at all? Have you bought any study aids like flash cards? I bought...

  16. Grade went from an A to a C over 3 classes!!!!!!!!!

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

    I guess the syllabus spells it out for you . I hope you might get at least some of your participation points back. I have only had one professor so far that required we email her and acknowledge...

  17. My first crack of my essay

    MIKelly replied to DAMomma's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I like the second paragraph better than the first one. The first one seems a bit dramatic, maybe? Great start, though! How long does it have to be? What program are you in or applying to? I live...

  18. Essays

    MIKelly replied to DAMomma's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Are you in an advanced or special nursing program? At the college I am applying to there is no essay, no interview. They just look at your GPA and your HESI scores and rank you that way. I don't...

  19. Essays

    MIKelly replied to DAMomma's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    One of my main reasons for wanting to be a nurse is that I have been treated like crap by nurses while I was in the hospital delivering my four children. Each time (three times, last time was twins)...

    MIKelly replied to brinley_s's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Have you done the practice tests from websites like this one? http://www.msjensen.gen.umn.edu/webanatomy/image_database/default.htm I havn't taken anatomy yet but when I stumbled onto this website I...

  21. Has anyone had Comparative Religions class?

    MIKelly posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The school I am attending requires either ethics or comparative religions for your humanities requirement for an associates degree. I registered for an accelerated comparative religions course that...

  22. Clinton Twp. Baker College, MI

    MIKelly replied to K10K11's topic in Michigan Nursing

    You can apply to the program as along as you have the 12 credits and the HESI done. You don't even need the prereqs done until you actually have been accepted and are starting (of course unless you...

  23. Clinton Twp. Baker College, MI

    MIKelly replied to K10K11's topic in Michigan Nursing

    As far as I know the requirements at Macomb are less than at Baker. All you need is intro to psych, an english course, nutrition, human physiological anatomy, and microbiology. I know Baker requires...

  24. Clinton Twp. Baker College, MI

    MIKelly replied to K10K11's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Are you considering applying to both Baker and Macomb? That would give you a shot at 165 spots instead of just

    MIKelly replied to nurse with cats's topic in Michigan Nursing

    My friend works at Genesys Hospital near Flint (or it might be in Flint?) and she makes about $25 per
