  1. A&P: Really Hard vs. Just a lot of material

    Spartan05 replied to ceraleigh's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    First off, let me start by saying that I took Anatomy and Physiology as two separate courses (as oppose to A&P I and A&P II as many on here seem to have done). In my opinion the only tough...

    Spartan05 replied to charlyboy247's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congrats on starting! What classes do you have this fall? This board has a ton of information on it which I am sure you will find out if you haven't already and lots of great people who are willing to...

  3. What are YOU taking Fall semester?

    Spartan05 replied to serendipity123's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am a little scared about my fall schedule. I am taking Micro, Physiology, Pharmacology and Human Growth/Development....oh yeah and working full-time...but it is only one semester and I really don't...

  4. Career switching advice

    Spartan05 replied to Spartan05's topic in General Nursing

    I think that one big question you have to answer is, are you leaning more towards nursing or occupational therapy? Obviously free tuition would be a huge bonus to your ADN program and you can't really...

  6. career change to nursing the right choice?

    Spartan05 replied to Dino's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I also want to become a CRNA and I haven't heard horror stories about that profession being underpaid, underappreciated or miserable. In my experience, a lot of the horror stories come from bedside...

  7. Interesting Piece of Info From an Advisor

    Spartan05 replied to Spartan05's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I really do appreciate the advice. Right now, this just seems like one more hoop to jump through and also a way for schools for students to squeeze more money out of students but, I am a little bit of...

  8. Interesting Piece of Info From an Advisor

    Spartan05 replied to Spartan05's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    One quick point about your post that stands out. In order to get into CRNA school you need a BSN (in most cases I know some schools do provide exceptions but let's not debate that here) so both will...

  9. Interesting Piece of Info From an Advisor

    Spartan05 replied to Spartan05's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    This seems to be the case around here, Lansing Community College has a better reputation than MSU for nurses who are looking for positions in the Mid-Michigan area. However, I don't know how well that...

  10. BSN a prereq?

    Spartan05 posted a topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I did a search in the threads but couldn't come up with the answer to my question so here it is, if anyone can help please chime in. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Engineering right now and am about...

  11. part-time second degree programs?

    Spartan05 replied to veggiemom's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I am also debating whether MSU or LCC may be the better fit for my situation. MSU has a traditional two-year program as well as an accelerated program. I would probably stay away from the accelerated...

  15. Career switching advice

    Spartan05 replied to Spartan05's topic in General Nursing

    I have not considered therapy yet however I am pretty open to anything in health care. I'm not really sure how the therapy field stacks up to nursing? Is there such a huge demand, potential to move to...

  19. Really want to be a nurse

    Spartan05 replied to parris's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Also to echo what was said above, you do not need to take the Micro Lab (BIOL 204) to get into LCC's program. It falls under the recommended courses that you can take that will get you points towards...

    Spartan05 replied to parris's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Parris: Hey I just checked out the MSU site about your nursing question. Here is what I found out, you may want to double-check with an advisor. If you are applying to the accelerated program you do...
