  1. Need advice serious people only!

    baldee replied to Lpn soon to be Rn's topic in LPN to RN

    As far as the science courses, I believe it doesn't matter. If the time limit has expired on the classes, its the same for ADN or LPN-RN. However, I'd do the LPN-RN to save one to two semesters of...

  2. Help...I CAN'T fail nursing school!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    baldee replied to Ecpi Raleigh 07/09's topic in General Nursing

    Talk to her associate Professors. Its a business, and those types should be filtered out. If it doesn't help you, it will help others down the line. Better yet, see the Chairman of the Department. But...

  3. Kaplan Online ADN Program

    baldee replied to giftedRN's topic in General Students

    QUICK! Someone lend me $30K and I'll move to Ft. Lauderdale.

  4. IS BSN slower paced than ASN

    baldee replied to 2bnurseTV's topic in General Students

    An ADN is a 3.5 year 2 year school. It finishes up only slightly quicker than a BSN, and therefore a BSN is only a couple of 6 hr semesters away when combined in a dual graduate program, but its big...

  5. Much Older People Going Into Nursing

    baldee replied to MissMaryMack12's topic in General Students

    LOL, I've curled 200 lbs and ran marathons, and the only reason I can't do it now is no time to train. I'm working on my 5th degree, and have 2 - #1 rated in the world engineering school degrees....

  6. Am I hireable?

    baldee replied to KayteRN's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Kate, You are worried about the wrong thing. You got your RN, and now you may need to do more than fill out applications. Research, be positive, and NEVER bring up something bad about your past. If...

  7. Is A&P really the hardest of them all?

    baldee replied to shye22's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just got thru with micro. All of the AP's and micro are similar difficulty levels. Depending on the professor, they all take everything you can throw at them, because the information is endless and...

  8. If the "job losses are permanent" what does this mean for nursing?

    baldee replied to BeatDownNewGrad's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I'm hoping to start my ADN in Fall, but from where I stand, it looks like a high turnover industry. For examples, look how long and hard it is to climb the stairs to get RN alone. And then anything...

  9. All About the NET

    baldee replied to 9livesRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    HA HA, the NET test is DEAD! They were absorbed by another test company. Same general routine though. Its like a major exam worth of study: 2 weeks of 2 hrs/day average study. Ace your first one, and...

  10. How do you ace tests?

    baldee replied to lalastudent's topic in General Students

    HA HA HA HA, I'd tell you, but then I'd have to dispose of you, ha ha ha

  11. How do you handle cheaters?

    baldee replied to AllSmiles225's topic in General Students

    I think that the school system relies on the revenue of the masses who do not pass (government free money). So between instructors' job security being threatened often by angry students, and the...

  12. How can I look up ADN or AS schools for RN by state and city?

    baldee posted a topic in General Students

    Thanks, need to start beating the bushes

  13. How can I look up ADN or AS schools for RN by state and city?

    baldee replied to baldee's topic in General Students

    OK, uh, what's BON (Board of Nursing?).

  14. ADMITTED!!

    baldee replied to 2ndLife's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good Job!! One more day and a wake up to find out if in ADN for me. And my spider senses aren't tingling - ?? Hopefully the result of your hard work will be an omen for me

  15. All About the NET

    baldee replied to 9livesRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you are talking about the oneline practice test, you just keep trying different answers until you get them right. The written expression was the only one I had to track one-by-one (up to 4 tries...

  16. Has anyone gotten into nursing school with a low gpa?

    baldee replied to Butterfly3001's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've made all A's except 2 C's and 1 B over 30 years ago (3.5GPA). Made top 1% in the Nation on NET test. And I still may not get in unless I suck on the corns of the Admin's feet

  17. Microbiology in the Fall!!!

    baldee replied to lindsay176's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Come on Krissy, you know the goal is to be in the top 3 per each test, each class!!

  18. I am so nervous!

    baldee replied to krimicrat's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Ha Ha, I'm writing all but one professor I've had, and one this semester I don't know yet (kinda do but that would be presumptuous after 2 weeks on line class even though I'm the most outspoken on...

  19. I am so nervous!

    baldee replied to krimicrat's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Nice move! I didn't think about that. I can get 2 professors too, since I just turned mine in Monday. Deadline to turn in is for a while, so it may be a good additional aspect. Thanks, from a Type

  20. All About the NET

    baldee replied to 9livesRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    And I did have to go through EACH eriworld written expression question ONE AT A TIME, UNTIL I GOT THE RIGHT ANSWER FOR EACH. But I would test up to where I was at going through finding the right...

  21. All About the NET

    baldee replied to 9livesRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Get all the free ones you can, and there are a lot on all those links above going down 4 or 6 levels deep in many of the many links. You want to save at least a couple reading tests unread, for the...

  22. What states accepting nursing students?

    baldee replied to Java Mama's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would think up in the Northern States near the big cities, with all the people getting cut up and shot at

  23. All About the NET

    baldee replied to 9livesRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    WHEW!! Math, Reading, Written: 100%, 85%, 85%. Composite percentage, 93%: 99th National Average Percentile. Did worst in Inferential in Reading, and those are the easiest: except you have to take time...
