  1. :( i need help pllzzzzz

    Ladypie replied to safae1986's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    A few grammar/tense things, but nothing major. A few things just sounded awkward to me, but you will have to choose other words if you want to replace them. I think it might be helpful to state where...

  2. PSYCHOLOGY and SOCIOLOGY

    Ladypie replied to baxter80's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am currently taking both classes, online versions. I think the content is pretty easy, and they actually overlap in some areas. I am glad I am taking them at the same time. You said you have good...

  3. Reapplying to another Nursing school...

    Ladypie replied to Kristy_joyz's topic in General Students

    I wonder if there is some kind of national database between colleges for just this kind of thing. I don't think a college would run a background check on an applicant before admittance, would they? I...

  4. Reapplying to another Nursing school...

    Ladypie replied to Kristy_joyz's topic in General Students

    The application for the program that I want to attend states to send transcripts from all universities and colleges attended. I do not know how they could find out if you did not send in some...

  5. Second Career: How do I begin?

    Ladypie replied to imp0526's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I am hoping to get into a CC RN program this spring. I also have a BA degree but cannot do a daytime program because I have a family and need to be available in the daytime to do carpools and...

  6. Saying Hello

    Ladypie replied to zullayh's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am in Montgomery County, but not in any school yet. I did most of my prereqs 15 years ago at my old college in VA and then the last class at my local CC. You are lucky to have family to help like...

  7. Saying Hello

    Ladypie replied to zullayh's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Welcome! I am kind of like you- SAHM to 3 kids, and we live in MD. I have done the prerequisites and am just hoping to get into a program for the spring, but it is a night program. How will you go to...

  8. Letters of reference-what to do?

    Ladypie replied to Mrs. Nesbit's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Have you been taking any prereqs recently? Maybe a professor could help you. Even if they don't know you that well, they can still write that you came to class and worked hard, you were punctual, etc....

  9. What's worst than getting rejected? I know!

    Ladypie replied to DesertRain's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for updating us! I really felt for you and am very glad to hear you got that spot. Have fun getting ready for school, and good luck with it

  10. CA RN-license question

    Ladypie replied to EDnurse2009's topic in California Nursing

    Would this just be an Associates degree in nursing? If you already have a bachelor's degree, I would think that another year of nursing classes could make you eligible for an ADN. I can't imagine any...

  11. Need advice for short tem RN Job

    Ladypie replied to sunbeam888's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I was browsing craigslist and saw some 13-week nursing contracts in the Baltimore area. I found them under the part-time jobs section, and the title of the post is: Needed: Med Surge, ICU, Tele, ER,...

  12. A hello and a question!

    Ladypie replied to Hoping4RNin2010's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello- I transfered credits from when I started college back in '89. I would be ticked off if a college didn't take my gen ed classes. They don't expire, although many programs will not take math or...

  13. ANY DC or MD Excessior Students?

    Ladypie replied to LuvWounds's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Hi Lunah- how did you determine that VA accepted EC? I went to the VA BON website and couldn't find any info on it, although I haven't tried calling them. I am in MD, and I wonder if I did it and then...

  14. roll call Excelsior College Students

    Ladypie replied to LuvWounds's topic in Maryland Nursing

    No, but I know that the Maryland BON doesn't recognize EC except for a very small time frame of attendance. Do you fit into that category? I think the idea of EC is nice, but was bummed to hear that...

  15. Nursing Schools in MD/DC area

    Ladypie replied to KTPMaryland2's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I am in Montgomery County, but I know from my research that Baltimore has tons of programs in their community college system. They have a variety of requirements, too. (some easier to get into than...

  16. I got a waiver......don't have to take Anatomy!!!

    Ladypie replied to livinglighthouse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The program I want to get into let me transfer in all the math and sciences that I took 15 years ago. Very few schools will take these classes when they are that old. What a relief to not have to...

  17. How hard is it to leave little ones for full time NS?

    Ladypie replied to littlemamakt's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Oh, your post made me smile! It is hard for us moms to get away from our babies, and not feel guilty. I have 3 kids and hope to be in nursing school when my youngest is 3. When I am gone my husband...

  18. Struggling with Starting School....

    Ladypie replied to HeyHeyitsMaay's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow, I can't imagine paying that much more for a degree! Is there any way you could go to El Centro and pace yourself faster, so it's more like the DNI program? I am not familiar with either program,...

  19. Anyone faint their first day of clinical?

    Ladypie replied to thyme39's topic in General Students

    I felt like I was going to faint when I was watching an epidural being inserted. The room got all yellow and weird and I immediately went out the room and slid down the wall and sat there until it...

  20. How does your school accept you?

    Ladypie replied to Sammygrll's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Forgot to mention that my school does not offer a wait list. If you do not get in, you just reapply the following year. This year I have all the prereqs done, and I will have 20/21 points. I hope it...

  21. How does your school accept you?

    Ladypie replied to Sammygrll's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My school of choice uses a point system. There are a total of 21 possible points. You get points for each of the prereqs you have taken, and also points for GPA and residency. Residency in the...

  22. Would you debate this exam?

    Ladypie replied to justme1972's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yuck, I am appalled at your professor's response. Can you go to the dept head with this? I wouldn't worry about ticking him off too much now- he is already showing that he is defensive. And I...

  23. For those trying to figure out how to do this..............

    Ladypie replied to karen230's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Do you have any evening/weekend programs in your area? I am a SAHM, but my youngest 2 aren't in school yet, and we have no family in the area to babysit for us. I am trying to get into an evening...

  24. Do you think it is too late to go into nursing?

    Ladypie replied to karen230's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am the same age as you and hope to get into an ADN program for January. I think it is common in nursing to have people going for a 2nd career, especially moms whose kids are older and they find...
