  1. Can't let it go!

    ERGirl83 replied to serendipity123's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm probably not the best one to answer this, because I'm currently struggling whether "just nursing" will be enough for me. Although, I've dreamed of being a surgeon for as long as I can...

  2. gpa to get into nursing school?

    ERGirl83 replied to hushpupgrl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The required GPA varies so widely from school to school, I highly doubt the information you get here will be helpful. My best advice is to just study as if you needed a 4.0 and you won't go wrong......

  3. A & P without taking chem first?

    ERGirl83 replied to luvlilly's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I did take college chemistry before A&P, but it was 5 years ago, and there's not much I remember..Honestly, you need it more for Physiology than Anatomy, and most of the stuff you really need to...

  4. Why is.....

    ERGirl83 replied to rnmomtobe2010's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well, the obvious answer is that the processes in the human body often boil down to Cytology and Chemistry, two very KEY elements to any nursing education. Not to mention that the study of Chemistry...

  5. Human Anatomy / A&P I Club for Fall 2007

    ERGirl83 replied to Kensington's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm also in a CRAZY A&P program here in Utah...I've gotten 80-90% on all the exams/quizzes for lecture and lab, but the he curves, and the class average has been 50% for everything, so I've...

  6. What would you change about your scrubs?

    ERGirl83 replied to daisygirl_001's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Get rid of the hip pockets that make hips look even bigger than they already are, and stop designing them like all nurses are 350 pounds. I'm 5'6 and 135, so pretty much average, definitely not tiny,...

  7. quidkest way to get RN in colorado or elsewhere

    ERGirl83 replied to expressit's topic in General Nursing

    If you are planning on getting an MSN or an NP, I would most definitely warn you to go to an accredited school, and one with a good reputation. Don't skimp on your pre-reqs, at all. Especially...

  8. Waiting lists?

    ERGirl83 replied to ariannasmom's topic in General Nursing

    I called SLCC yesterday and the wait time was between 2.5 and 3 years AFTER all pre-reqs are completed. HOWEVER, if you get a job at IHC, and agree to work for them for 2 years after school, they...

  9. IHC hospitals

    ERGirl83 replied to labornurse's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah, IHC is pretty much the be-all-end-all out here...They only do on-line applications, which I dislike, I like to talk to the recruiters and managers prior to securing interviews, but there are...

  10. New grad in ED

    ERGirl83 replied to alison99's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I'm still in school, but my best friend just graduated in May, and is working in the ED at one of the busier Level II trauma hospitals in her area. She absolutely LOVES the work, but she also studies...

  11. Know any RN's who became MD's?

    ERGirl83 replied to Anesthetize's topic in General Nursing

    This isn't always true, it depends on where you did your undergrad...With the pre-reqs for our nursing program here, I'd only need 4 extra classes to qualify for med school admissions (I'm still...

  12. Is it Enough?

    ERGirl83 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I've been planning on being a doctor my entire life, then I got married and had a baby before finishing school, and realized that the schedule wouldn't be fair to my family, and decided on nursing...
