I'm interested to see people's responses to this, becuse I'm going to have clinicals there next semester I've been to Moore Med Center once to visit someone, and it looks nice on the inside. She had a good experience but I haven't ever heard anythi...

Nope, no calculator on the TEAS.

I have no advice for you (still just a student and have no clue ) But, if you're looking at the Gulf Coast in TX I highly recommend Rockport. I used to live there and I wish I could go back! It's beautiful :)

You have to ask yourself...are many people really getting their BSN in only four years? I honestly don't know, but when I was getting my first BS degree (non-nursing) I was the only person I knew who graduated in just four years. It seems to me tha...

What a fun thread! I was a chemical engineer prior to becoming a student nurse. My last job was writing air permits for the state. (boring! lol) I also spent a couple of years home with the kids too.

My DD (20 months) had a reaction this year. She ran a fever for 4 days, it got up to 103 at one point. She may have been coming down with something before the shot, but I'm not really sure. I felt a little more achy than usual after I got this ye...

Is anyone else in the same boat as me? I'm taking A&P I this spring, but I also just got accepted to the nursing program so I'll be taking that along with Nursing Process I. They are co-reqs at my school but I think most people take A&P befo...

I'll be turning 29 right around the time of graduation from the nursing program in 12/09 What an awesome birthday present that will be!!! :balloons:

I am IN!!!!! :balloons::monkeydance::balloons: I thought for sure that I wasn't in, especially when November rolled around with no letter....I even went so far as to start to move on to plan B :trout: (I soooo should've called the school first) Aft...

Add me to the list! I'm taking A&P I next semester, along with intro to nutrition. I'm going to take one more class, but not sure which one yet

Wow, the acceptances are starting to pour in now! :balloons:Congratulations to everyone who has gotten in! :balloons: Now I just have to try not to tackle the mailman daily until it's my turn to find out

Please forgive my lack of medical knowledge in advance...I'm still pre-nursing DD #1 was born in '04. Toward the end of the pregnancy my BP started creeping up, so I was induced at 39 weeks. I had cervadil and pit but no progress, so I had a c/s. I ...

Thank you so much for this thread! :redbeathe I'm not even officially in nursing school yet, and I know that NICU is my passion and I will get there someday. It dawned on me sometime after my 26+6 weeker was discharged and some of the emotional tra...

Oh yeah, Tiffany (fmrnicumom) My DD #2 was a NICU baby too, and that's what finally motivated me to pursue nursing as well! I had always thought about it, but that's what finally gave me the guts to do something about it. Aren't NICU graduates the b...

I *will* be waiting for the letter. Our app deadline is 9/21 so I'll find out at the end of October. I've already taken the NET, my GPA is great, so unless there are a lot of applicants with LPNs/EMTs/etc I shouldn't have a problem getting in. They g...

For everyone that already has a bachelor's degree, how are you paying for NS? I am finishing up my pre-reqs that I didn't take for my first degree at the CC, then I'm planning on transferring to a university to do an accelerated BSN program. The CC ...

I think it's pretty confusing when you already have a degree. So far, I have been told that I do not qualify for a Pell Grant because of my previous degree. I was also told that I won't be able to get a federal subsidized loan either, but I don't kno...

Nurses here may make less than what you're used to seeing, but you have to factor in the cost of living adjustment. It is a LOT cheaper here for housing, day care, etc than in Washington DC. I've lived in both Tulsa and the OKC metro and I liked bot...

I'm not a student yet, but I have been checking out OCCC too. It seems like a pretty good program and the staff seems friendly so far. It's competitive to get into OCCC. They usually have about 200 applicants per semester but they only take 72 ...

Hello everyone! This is my first official post at all nurses, but I've been lurking for a while Let's see...I'm Lisa. I'm 26 and married with 2 little girls. We just moved back to OK, but my husband and I grew up here. I'm a potential nursing stu...

Congratulations!!! :balloons:

Thank you for your suggestions! I'm still not really any closer to a final decision, but I keep thinking that the ADN route will probably be easier to manage w/my family life. Lana - Thanks for the links! I had already seen the one from Mercy, but...

I have thought about those programs, and I haven't ruled them out yet. I have a couple of concrens though. Maybe someone can help me with those? 1. Cost! Since I already have a BS degree, I'm not eligible for any grants. I've been checking out di...

Hello there! I'm hoping to be the class of 09 also! The app deadline isn't until the end of March so it'll be April before I find out if I am in for Fall 07. The wait is killing me! I have an appt. with the advisor tomorrow and I'm going to see wha...

The CC I'm trying to get into doesn't require medical terminology, but if you do take it, then you get an extra "preference point" for getting in. With all the competition, it can't hurt right? I still don't know if I can do it before the app deadli...
