  1. STCC Nursing Fall 2009

    bananimal replied to bananimal's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    ProudTwinMom.. I will be the one a half hour early sitting in the front row jumping up and down in excitement... LOL

  2. STCC Nursing Fall 2009

    bananimal replied to bananimal's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    Yeah you should have most of them.. You'll need the TB test if you haven't had it in the past 2 years I think. And you might need a tetorifice shot if you haven't had it since you've turned 18. I just...

  3. STCC Nursing Fall 2009

    bananimal replied to bananimal's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    I already have most of mine, I made an appointment for my physical and the soonest they could get me in is

  4. Helpful A&P Study Material

    bananimal replied to Kyla.ann's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I got straight A's in A&P I & II and I attribute that mostly to my coloring book, The Anatomy Coloring Book by Kapit & Elson. I am a visual learner, and coloring the different parts really...

  6. I Feel The World Wants Me To Fail

    bananimal replied to Dreamer87's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Dreamer, have you ever examined WHY your grades are so low? You seem like you are experiencing depression, and that can have a major detrimental effect on your grades.. (That's why mine were so low) I...

  7. I Feel The World Wants Me To Fail

    bananimal replied to Dreamer87's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Heyy, firstly, just take a deep breath and calm down. Worrying, crying, or being angry is not going to help anything. It does take some people a lot of effort to get what they want, and if you are...

  8. A&P Lab ?

    bananimal replied to crazytonurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I LOVED dissections! We dissected quite a few things, the main one being a cat. Believe me, I am a cat person, I have three cats, and I got through it just fine. The smell is quite disturbing though,...

  9. STCC anyone?

    bananimal replied to Chaoticdreams33's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    Congrats (: Can't wait to be in your shoes..

  10. Summer School

    bananimal replied to HumorHeals22's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took anatomy & physiology 1 & 2 with lab in a normal semester, and it was definitely jam packed! I'd say your summer is now going to revolve around anatomy (: I'm taking a 6-week online...

  11. How long of a commute do you/will you have to your school

    bananimal replied to nursing8648's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am lucky to be about 5-10 minutes by car to my school. I couldn't imagine driving an hour or close to an hour for school, but maybe if it were my only option I'd go for it.. I've heard of a lot of...

  12. Schooling to become an RN

    bananimal replied to jngraham's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences http://www.mcphs.edu/ They have an accelerated 32-month program in boston for second bachelors degree in nursing. This is the information on their...

  13. Hi, I'm new and I wanted to know if I should take Chm1 & AP1 together...

    bananimal replied to on eagles wings's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It totally depends on what you can handle. The first year of a nursing program I was in you took A&P1 with lab and Microbiology with lab in the same semester (along w/ english and sociology) and...

  14. Well, this is worrying, and very scary

    bananimal replied to Ready, Able's topic in General Students

    Worrying is definitely warranted because most nursing programs are very, very competitive. However, some schools don't look only at grades, they look at entrance exams and experience, etc. It may take...

  15. Need some good summer reads!

    bananimal replied to stellina615's topic in General Nursing

    Personally, I was going to start the Twilight series this summer before I start nursing school in the fall. I wanna know what all the hype is about! lol (: Congrats on finishing school,

    Welcome and congrats kab76 (:

  17. How hard is the Hesi admission assessment test?

    bananimal replied to michaboo's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    Call your school and ask them if they require the chemistry portion. My school did not require it, so I did not take it. Keep in mind though, if they don't require it and you don't take it-- you won't...

  18. Ok I am trying to keep tabs, all starting this fall say I

    bananimal replied to ~Mi Vida Loca~RN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    congratulations everyone!! i am starting my nursing program in the fall, in western massachusetts. we have an orientation coming up in the middle of may-- i can't wait! we are going to be scheduling...

  19. Shout out if your happy with a "C"

    bananimal replied to rholman's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I passed Microbiology with a C+ and I was incredibly happy with that

  20. ? for those of you who've already taken A&P1

    bananimal replied to ccjus123's topic in General Students

    The A&P coloring book I have is The Anatomy Coloring Book by Wynn Kapit / Lawrence M. Elson. Yes, it is very time consuming coloring all the sections, but it's not wasted time. I usually did it at...

  21. ? for those of you who've already taken A&P1

    bananimal replied to ccjus123's topic in General Students

    I took A&P back in 2005/2006, but I remember it very well. Yes, the bones (and also the circulatory anatomy) were the hardest part, but I made it through with all A's. Stop what you're doing right...

  22. Zoloft anyone...???

    bananimal replied to silentRN's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm obviously not a doctor-- but what I can suggest is maybe asking your doctor about a mood stabilizer. I was once ruled by those constant racing thoughts of worry.. Seroquel took those thoughts...

  23. Sanford Brown?

    bananimal replied to jessicatherat's topic in General Nursing

    This is MY opinion.. not sure how true it is, but this is what I've discussed in the past with several people in my life. I think the main reason people tend to stay away from "colleges" such as...

  24. Low GPA

    bananimal replied to sclement23's topic in General Nursing

    I got accepted to a very competitive program with three F's on my transcript. However, I re-took those classes and got A's. I think they like to see you improve, that you're not an idiot, maybe you...

  25. STCC 2010?

    bananimal replied to JessH's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    No, I don't think you can retake those. I know there is a page dedicated to it off of STCC's Nursing page, but I don't know how much information on it is helpful to
