    dtrmnd2sccd posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    hi there, I'm almost done with prereqs and waiting anxiously to hear from my 1st choice program. I've done very well in classes so far--have a 4.0 GPA in my prereqs, having taken Chem, Gen BIO,...

    dtrmnd2sccd replied to Piglet68's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    LOVED chem (had 105 avg!), really enjoyed A&P I and II but worked hard... Micro is a toughie this semester, because the professor is not that good, and I'm getting a bit burned out having taken 7...

  7. Curry ACCEL Jan '09??

    dtrmnd2sccd replied to dtrmnd2sccd's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    Thanks! I think you were the student speaker at the Curry open house in February, yes? A little nervous hearing they get 200+ apps for 30-odd slots. Thankfully only have to bite my nails for...

    dtrmnd2sccd replied to Scooter321's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm heading to my first class tonight--it meets once a week from 5-10pm (2.5 hrs class, 2.5 hrs lab). Looked through the text a bit, and am a little intimidated. I have a 4.0 on my pre-reqs going...

    dtrmnd2sccd replied to jcazeau's topic in First Year After Licensure

    You might want to post on the Massachusetts page (under Local) or under the Pre-Nursing Forum to see if there are any others out there. Are you going to the info session in Feb? Might see you there!...

  17. Chemisty Prerequisites

    dtrmnd2sccd replied to Mnstn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You've gotten a lot of great responses above. Just one more suggestion--if you are able to, take a class that is a full-semester long (rather than a short summer session class) and meets several...

  20. College & Motherhood

    dtrmnd2sccd replied to katesmom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm doing it, but getting VERY little sleep right now. My two are 2.5 and 4.5 years old. I don't think I could have done it when my youngest was 8 mo because she was a reflux baby and very high...

  21. Which is harder?

    dtrmnd2sccd replied to bondocjensen's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think it depends on the ages of your kids. If your kids are school-aged, then you will have the time where they are in school to do homework/study. If you kids are younger, then you can use nap...

    dtrmnd2sccd replied to karma482's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    Liz and Jinx, did you grad w/a BSN or ADN? For new grads still having trouble finding jobs, what degree do you hold? Are new BSN grads also having the same trouble in Boston?

    dtrmnd2sccd replied to Scooter321's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow!! That's a great deal!! When I just looked there, the cheapest used were going for $110. Only thing I could find for $35 is the study guide... it has the same cover as the textbook--just want to...
