  1. What path should I take?

    arabmagic replied to SparkleRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration & I hate debt too. I chose the Community College route & it will cost approx $10,000. The school has a great reputation in the...

  2. A & P @ Tcc

    arabmagic replied to calliesue's topic in Texas Nursing

    Well... the teachers & campuses must do things differently. Our was from a test bank.... 60 questions. We could miss 9 and still make 100 because of the curve (& several questions on material...

  3. A & P @ Tcc

    arabmagic replied to calliesue's topic in Texas Nursing

    Hello! I'm taking it on Wednesday. I have Luyster for Lecture & had Johnson for Lab. I wouldn't worry about it too much. I heard that nobody has ever lowered their present grade with the...

    arabmagic replied to MidLifeRN2012's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I worked in Accounting for 10+ years and just quit my job in August to go back to school full time. I actually found an accounting job at JP Morgan Chase and work 2 ten hour shifts on the weekend. I'm...

  7. Jobs for Recent Graduates - Varying Degrees

    Reading another post has me curious as to the type of jobs a person would be qualified for once graduating from nursing school???? Let's say..... Student A has just graduated and is a RN with an...

  8. Graduate with completed nursing requirements, but no BS in nursing...

    arabmagic replied to gkbroaro's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Looking back at my response, I guess it wouldn't make much sense for you to go for an associates (RN) when you have a MA already. I know it even seems kind of "backwards" to get an ADN like I am when...

  9. Am I crazy to do this?

    arabmagic replied to picturestoburn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Maybe take A&P I, BioChem, Economics, Growth & Dev in the spring. I tried taking a bunch of science classes together & my counselor strongly suggested that I get some A&P behind me...

  10. What would you do if your instructor insulted you in front of the hole class?

    arabmagic replied to mama4girls's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have a teacher that gets pleasure out of making students uncomfortable, putting them on the spot, embarrassing them and making rude comments. Nobody likes or respects her as a teacher but we know we...

  12. Graduate with completed nursing requirements, but no BS in nursing...

    arabmagic replied to gkbroaro's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You could apply to either an ADN (Associates Degree) program, OR a BSN program, either one & you would become an RN. Many colleges have a "fast track" option for students who want their BSN &...

  13. Microbio & A&PII

    arabmagic replied to MissRNstudent10's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I plan on taking them both in the spring, and they will be my only 2 classes so I feel like I can devote a lot of time to them. I could take one of them over the summer..... but I thought that would...

  14. Applications for Nursing School

    arabmagic replied to daisyfleur70's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Just wanted you to know that you are not alone!!! I am going to apply to my CC in February for Fall 2008. Unfortunately I don't have all my pre-req's done (2 left in the spring!), so I have pretty...

  15. UTA / TCC / DCCCD Pre-req's

    arabmagic replied to arabmagic's topic in Texas Nursing

    Thanks! Yes, that is what I hear about TCC unfortunately. It is such a shame because you always hear about the need for nurses. And then you hear about the people who want to be nurses, and can't even...

  16. UTA / TCC / DCCCD Pre-req's

    arabmagic replied to arabmagic's topic in Texas Nursing

    Thanks for the advice! I will definitely keep that in mind. I had considered El Centro a few years ago, but for their Sonography program. Now I'm just trying to get prepared for the challenges of...

  17. Help...what school to choose and what pre-reqs to take?

    arabmagic replied to 8mpg's topic in Texas Nursing

  20. How do you keep from burning out?

    So begins week #6 of college & I am already feeling burned out!!! :uhoh21: I am returning to school after being out for 12 years & dove right in to A&P I, Chemistry, Psychology & my...

  21. Anyone accepted at TCC missing Science Pre-Reqs?

    arabmagic replied to arabmagic's topic in Texas Nursing

    That's the feeling I'm getting from talking with people.... that unless I have these courses COMPLETED, it's a slim to none chance that I'd get in. I will probably apply anyway.... can't hurt! Then I...

  22. Anyone accepted at TCC missing Science Pre-Reqs?

    arabmagic posted a topic in Texas Nursing

    I was curious if people get accepted without having A&P II and Micro completed? (but with everything else done) I wish they would take into consideration what you are currently enrolled in. Those...

    arabmagic replied to jla623's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    arabmagic replied to jla623's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What do you need to apply at Brookhaven? My plan is to apply at TCC next year but I want to check out all options. It seems difficult to prepare to apply to several different schools.... when they...
