I still have three more months until graduation. The program at Towson is not the greatest, but I think it depends on the individual as well. There's a few unnecessary courses in this program and they really grill you on APA citations. I know the pas...

Hi, I know exactly how you feel in this position. I got in with a cumulative GPA of 3.15. I also submitted two letters of recommendation and wrote an essay. At the time, they did not require these supplements but I did them anyways to increase my ch...

Hi, I was wondering why you mentioned University Specialty Hospital as one that you don't like. I am thinking about going to the Patient Care tech open house this monday. I'm a nursing student in my last year and would like some clinical experience b...

Hi, I'm currently a nursing student in my last year. I was wondering how do you get a nursing assistant job or PCT with frederick memorial hospital? I have only clinical experiences through school and really need some clinical experiences before grad...

Hello, I'm currently a second bachelor's student at Towson Nursing. I will start Med Surge and OB this Fall08 (J2) and I'm very excited. It's silly to say, but I'm in love with the show Grey's Anatomy and seeing all those weird amazing cases. I'm so ...

Re: MedSurge & OB advice? permalink Thank you so much for this valuable information! I definitely needed to know what it's like and you gave me so much information. I just went out and bought a Saunders Q & A NCLEX book today actually and wi...

Thank you so much for this valuable information! I definitely needed to know what it's like and you gave me so much information. I just went out and bought a Saunders Q & A NCLEX book today actually and will start studying that this summer. I wil...

I'm currently a J2, is it too soon to start studying for NCLEX? When is it a good time to start studying and what study guides are the best? :loveya:

J2 (second semester of nursing school, i've got three more semesters before graduating)

Hi everyone! I'm going to be attending the BSN program at Towson this coming spring and heard that I will have to take the NET. My friend who graduated from UMB 2006 said she's never heard of it. Towson will have a study guide at our pre-registration...

Thanks Lauren! This is just the information I needed for the clinicals. I've heard that the NET isn't so bad, so lately I'm more laid back on it. I already went out and bought the Kaplan book for it as well (I borrowed the study guide from Towson too...

Hi, Does anyone know how long it takes to commute from Catonsville to Towson in the morning/afternoon with rush hour? I am going to be at Towson but would like to live in Catonsville since I am more familiar with that area. Thanks! Also, I thought ev...

This looks almost the same as my schedule this semester. Can you give me any tips/pointers on the classes? My bf (graduated from pharmacy school) went out and bought me a pharmacology book and said that it'll help with this tough class. I am excited ...

Hi! Yes, I'm going to be attending Towson starting this spring semester. I saw that you replied to my other post and thank you for the response. It's definitely not too late, since I will be taking it pretty soon. I'm glad to hear that the science po...

Hello there, Thank you for your reply. It's exactly what I was thinking. Last week when my bf and I checked out apartments in Cockeysville, a normal 10 minute drive to campus, the owner said it usually takes her 30 minutes w/ traffic from Cockeysvill...

Hi, I like your suggestion on Timonium or Cockeysville. My boyfriend went to UMB's Pharmacy school and he was living in Anne Arundel for the majority of the time. For one semester, he lived in the school's dorm (apartment like) and it seemed safe the...

Thank you Jules. That was stirring up in the back of my head. I will definitely look into areas close to Towson.

Hello everyone! I was wondering if someone could tell me, if I go to school full time in Baltimore at a two year BSN program, is it advisable to work p/t like on the weekends or should I wait until the summer when there's no classes. I'm going for my...

Thank you VJ for the reply. I will definitely let you guys know what I decide to do. I will also look into other hospitals as well. How much do they pay CNA's hourly? Also, what about a medical transcriptionist? I think I'll have to take classes for ...

Thanks Jules. I was actually considering bartending. I don't have any experience bartending either but I know of a local bar/karaoke place that I go to all the time. I will look into my school schedule and see if I can squeeze in a job as well. :)

Hello, I just got into the 2nd degree nursing program at Towson University for this coming Spring 2008. I am 23 and recently graduated with a B.A. in Health Admin & Public Policy. Towson's tuition is around 10k for two years. I actually think if ...
