    grace8808 replied to grace8808's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  6. Brand new pre-nursing student, have some Q's:

    grace8808 replied to grace8808's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you so much for that info. I'm in central CA, so in the same system as you. I'm at a community college with a very limited # of spots in the nursing school (50) so it's really hard to get in....

  7. Does your program require pre-reqs done before application too?

    grace8808 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm really nervous that it's going to take me forever to get through nursing school here because the program I want/need to get into won't even let you apply until you complete all your pre-reqs and...

  8. What is the SICU?

    grace8808 replied to grace8808's topic in General Nursing

    I do the same thing (pause in the middle of a show or remember something that I just HAVE to know what it means)! I love House too. They're all good shows...soooo addicting! Glad I'm not the only

  9. What is the SICU?

    grace8808 posted a topic in General Nursing

    Ok, I'll admit it: I watch too much ER and Grey's Anatomy :) But I was watching an episode of ER last night and they kept saying they were 'sending a patient up to the SICU' and I was curious...I know...

  10. What is the SICU?

    grace8808 replied to grace8808's topic in General Nursing

    Haha, glad I'm not the only one! I suppose if you realize it's not supposed to be completely accurate and just enjoy the storyline it's not so bad right?

    grace8808 replied to wonderfulmiztake's topic in Nursing Career

    Same exact situation! I'm pre-nursing, community college, want to work NICU! We should talk. It was helpful to read these responses too

  15. Brand new pre-nursing student, have some Q's:

    grace8808 replied to grace8808's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you SO much Nikki! That was very helpful to hear. Unfortunately, the local nursing program/school doesn't allow people to get on the waiting list until they get all their pre-reqs done!...

  16. What is the SICU?

    grace8808 replied to grace8808's topic in General Nursing

  19. Am I suited for nursing?

    grace8808 replied to RNWannaBe724's topic in General Nursing

    We're somewhat alike in that I also have worried that since I'm not great at math and science, I won't be able to handle nursing and everything it requires in those areas. However, after going through...

  20. Ethics: Does it bother you when people are in nursing to make money?

    grace8808 replied to CaLLaCoDe's topic in General Nursing

    I'm brand new to the nursing world and am not an RN yet (I'm currently taking care of my pre-reqs), but I originally didn't know what good money nurses make when I was first considering it as a...
